Sometimes in a divorce or custody matter, one person will accuse the other of domestic violence. It could be a legitimate accusation, and it could also be false. If you are accused of domestic violence it is not something to be taken lightly. Ultimately, this could impact your ability to see your children.
How do I prove my innocence if I didn’t commit this offense?
In order to prove your innocence, there must be weakness in the prosecution case. A great defense attorney will be able to find the weakness in the case, and prevent the prosecution from proving that the allegations actually happened. Some questions that a defense attorney may ask are:
- Did the alleged victim call 911?
- Did the alleged victim seek medical treatment?
- Were there any witnesses, or evidence of domestic violence?
- Has this happened before?
- Has the alleged victim recanted the allegations?
- Are the allegations exaggerated?
These questions, amongst other questions will give the defense attorney a clear picture of the case, and help to formulate an effective defense if you are innocent.
