Successful Domestic Violence Defense Efforts

A charge of domestic violence or second degree assault may result from something as simple as an unwanted touching or even the threat of touching.

During a divorce proceeding or child custody dispute, one of the parties may sometimes attempt to gain an advantage by making a false claim of domestic violence or threats of violence against the other spouse. Regardless of the truth of the matter, this can prejudice the rights of the accused.

The family law and criminal defense attorneys at the Law Offices of Todd K. Mohink understand these dynamics and how to deal with them. We start our defense effort by gaining a comprehensive knowledge of the domestic environment and the events leading up to the charge. When needed, we employ private investigators who can examine the facts in an objective manner. We are also skilled at cross-examination and drawing out facts that may impugn the accuser's motives and allegations.

We will work to build a strong defense for you. Our goal in every case is to obtain the best outcome possible.
