Responding to Charges of Domestic Violence
Law enforcement, prosecutors and judges take domestic violence very seriously. Even if there are no visible marks — bruises, for example — the person accused of assault will most likely still be arrested. If you are married to the victim, dating the victim, or a family member of the victim, the assault is handled as family violence. Attorney Daniel Calamia understands the seriousness of these charges and how they can affect many parts of your life. He will set out to build a strong defense on your behalf to ensure the best possible outcome is obtained. Whenever they may be helpful, he will guide you toward programs such as anger management, chemical dependency classes and counseling.
If there are children present, CPS (Child Protective Services) may also become involved in your case.
Assault
Calamia Law Firm also handles assault charges that do not involve family members. These assault charges can arise out of occurrences such as bar fights, self-defense and in relation to other crimes. Depending on the circumstances, you could face charges of making a terroristic threat. If this is your second or subsequent offense, you will most likely be charged with a felony.
If convicted on assault charges, you may be prevented from possessing or owning a gun in certain circumstances. And if you are convicted of a felony, it can become extremely difficult to secure employment or even rent an apartment. We are determined to fight for the best possible outcome for you. We strive to have charges dismissed or reduced and we work to get you involved in the proper programs to manage your anger and show your true character to the prosecution. As an experienced trial lawyer, Daniel Calamia will proceed toward a jury trial whenever this is in your best interest.
