Such criminal domestic violence charges as spousal abuse or assault are often overcharged but can be very difficult to resolve. When a dispute between spouses or intimate partners gets noisy or out of hand, law enforcement officers responding to a call will usually arrest and charge the man, regardless of the true facts of the case. Women are sometimes surprised to find that they can’t just make the case go away by asking to drop the charges against the husband or boyfriend. Contact our Rock Hill criminal defense lawyer today.

How a Rock Hill Domestic Violence Attorney Might Help

Depending on the defendant’s previous record, these cases can be charged as misdemeanors or felonies. In our experience, we find that getting the whole story of the incident in front of the state’s solicitor and the judge can make a significant difference in our client’s favor.
