How The O’Mara Law Firm Defends Against Domestic Violence Allegations
A domestic violence conviction can change your life forever, affecting your freedom, family ties and future chances. Our domestic violence criminal defense team thoroughly investigates each case to identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s claims and build a strategic defense tailored to your situation. Here are some proven strategies that have helped our clients who are facing charges in Monmouth County:
- Limited evidence: Domestic violence cases often come down to a “he said/she said” situation with limited external evidence to support either side’s story. We hold prosecutors to their burden of proving guilt beyond reasonable doubt and highlight weaknesses in their evidence.
- False accusations: Some people make untrue domestic violence accusations during custody battles, divorce proceedings or even for personal revenge. We carefully look into why the accuser made their claims and find evidence that shows what really happened.
- Self-defense claims: In many situations, the accused acted only to protect themselves from harm. We work to show how your actions were reasonable responses to real threats to your safety.
- Police procedure violations: Law enforcement must follow strict rules when investigating domestic violence. We find cases where officers collected evidence improperly or violated your constitutional rights.
Every domestic violence case presents unique legal challenges. We combine these strategies with our thorough case preparation to build a strong defense for the cases we handle.
