Domestic Violence

If you are accused of a crime in which the victim is related to you by marriage or lives with you, the offense probably falls within the mandatory domestic violence guidelines. Given the recent politics of domestic violence crimes, these matters are now aggressively prosecuted by all agencies. A conviction may result in sanctions against one’s professional license, limitations in child visitation rights, loss of gun privileges, and mandatory counseling. Any conviction may carry jail and/or prison time. Melvin S. Nash can help protect your rights in this often complicated, emotional area of law.
