Building a Strong Defense
Many domestic violence or spousal abuse charges occur during the divorce process or in child custody disputes, when one family member tries to obtain an advantage over another by making a false charge.
The Law Office of Jerome Paun will work hard to build a strong defense of the charge you face. We will investigate the events leading up to the charge and the context of those events. We may interview witnesses who can verify your story or undermine the accusation. Our firm can also present testimony and evidence that supports your character.
Our goal will be to obtain a dismissal of the charge, a not guilty verdict or a negotiated plea that minimizes the penalties you face.
First-Time Offenders
A first-time offender may be eligible for a negotiated plea that avoids a conviction and jail time in exchange for your participation in a Family Violence Education Program (FVEP). Not everyone can obtain this outcome. Nevertheless, if you are a good candidate, attorney Jerome Paun can seek to obtain this result through negotiations with the prosecutor.
For Those Who Need Help
Some domestic violence charges come about as the result of alcohol abuse, drug abuse, or mental health issues. If you need help to deal with burdens such as these, The Law Office of Jerome Paun can direct you to a social service agency or treatment program that can help you. Your participation in a treatment program may enable our firm to negotiate a plea arrangement that avoids conviction or incarceration.
