Domestic Violence

Florida Domestic Violence Defense Lawyer

When the police are called regarding a domestic dispute, someone is going to jail. It simply doesn't matter what the circumstances were or who was truly at fault. Even a small bruise or a minor scratch on the alleged victim will result in an arrest.

If you have been accused of domestic abuse and were arrested during a heated argument, contact attorney Clyde M. Taylor Jr. People who know criminal law in the Florida Panhandle area know Clyde Taylor. You can be confident he will protect your rights, your freedom and your reputation.

Minimizing Criminal Penalties

If convicted of domestic assault or battery, you face possible jail time and a prolonged probation period. In addition, you will need to attend a 26 week batterer's intervention program. While these consequences may seem severe, there is hope. Many times domestic violence cases are based on "he said, she said" arguments, and the prosecution will refuse to drop the case, so you will need an attorney to defend you.

It is also important to consider whether the alleged victim was completely innocent in the dispute or if he or she did something to provoke the supposed attack. For example, if the victim acted first and the defendant was merely acting in self-defense, the charges may be reduced, dropped, or the case won at trial.
