When a loved one accuses you of violence, we take up your cause

If a loved one falsely accuses you of committing an act of violence against them, chances are, you feel betrayed. Not only that, but because prosecutors today are so tough on domestic violence, you face an uphill battle in court. The Law Office of Shannon Peters will take your side, exposing false allegations and challenging aggressive prosecutors who overcharge in their zeal to look tough. Whether it’s a spouse, a partner, or another person living in your household who’s accusing you, we examine all their claims with a wary eye. While we realize that true domestic violence is a grave issue, many of these cases are made up or exaggerated in the aftermath of a child custody dispute or another type of family dispute. We examine the evidence and aggressively depose and cross-examine the other side’s witness and the accuser to get to the truth. Get us on your side today.

Domestic Violence Charges In Arizona

In Arizona, domestic violence charges put offenders at risk of serious consequences. The state takes such allegations very seriously and may impose penalties including imprisonment, community service, and court fines. Depending on the degree of the offense and whether the defendant has had any prior offenses or violent history, jail time could range from minimal to up to a year within a county jail, in addition to other stringent restrictions imposed by courts. In some cases, defendants found guilty of domestic violence may have to attend mandatory counseling and guidance sessions. If convicted for a misdemeanor charge related to domestic violence in Arizona, the offender must complete probation amongst other restrictions as prescribed by law enforcement. To make matters worse, once an individual is charged with this crime it stays on their record forever resulting in numerous personal and professional limitations in both short and long term implications. If you find yourself facing a domestic violence charge in Arizona contact us today.
