Domestic Violence Defense Attorney in Lynnwood

The most important thing you can do to protect your future well-being is to contact an attorney if you have been arrested for domestic violence or have been accused of abusing your child, spouse or other family member.

Domestic violence allegations are taken very seriously in Lynnwood and all of Washington. In fact, domestic violence is the only non-felony offense that requires a defendant to be taken to jail. The police are required, by law, to take a person charged with domestic violence to jail, even for a misdemeanor offense. Because law enforcement typically errs on the victim's side, they typically make an arrest when called to the scene of a domestic dispute. Once the accused is taken into custody, the alleged victim will have little to no say in whether formal charges are filed against the accused. A loud argument may turn into a situation where a person is faced with criminal charges.
