Order of Protection
When domestic violence has in fact taken place in a home, an order of protection can be valuable in keeping the abused person safe. However, there are situations where an order of protection will be issued against a person who has been falsely accused of domestic violence. When this occurs, severe legal repercussions can result, as well as damage to one’s personal and professional reputation.
Criminal Charges
Along with an order of protection, individuals who may not have actually committed acts of domestic violence may still find themselves facing criminal charges. Since police are often eager to resolve these situations, they may remove a person from the home and arrest them without fully investigating the incident. When this occurs, prosecutors will usually do everything possible to ensure a conviction. Should this take place, additional issues surrounding child custody or other related matters may also be placed in jeopardy. Rather than let this happen, turn to experienced Miami criminal defense lawyers at Aktas Law to guide you through this complex legal maze.
Since there can be many complications that result from accusations of domestic violence, never take it for granted that everything will turn out okay for you even if you know you are innocent. Instead, consult immediately with Aktas Law.
