Representing Clients in Domestic Violence Cases

"Domestic Violence" means an act or threatened act of violence upon a person with whom the actor is or has been involved in an intimate relationship. Domestic violence also includes any other crime against a person or against property when used as a method of coercion, control, punishment, intimidation or revenge directed against a person with whom the actor is or has been involved in an intimate relationship. "Intimate relationship" means a relationship between spouses, former spouses, past or present unmarried couples, or persons who are the parents of the same child, regardless of whether the persons have been married or have lived together at any time.

Individuals accused of an offense classified as domestic violence rarely realize the serious consequences that can result from pleading guilty to or being convicted of domestic violence. Individuals convicted of domestic violence offenses may be precluded from making decisions with regard to their own children and may be precluded from possessing a firearm. Persons accused of domestic violence offenses are almost always subject to restraining orders, the violation of which may result in additional criminal charges.

The attorneys at the Law Offices of Rodger C. Daley are experienced in the complicated issues that are common in domestic violence cases. Our attorneys vigorously defend our clients who are accused of domestic violence. We will evaluate the strength of the prosecution's case and thereafter negotiate and litigate to obtain the best results for our clients.

Restraining Orders

Issues involving Restraining Orders, also known as "Protective Orders," can arise in domestic relations, criminal, and civil cases. Designed to protect an individual, or an individual and their minor children, from situations ranging from harassment to stalking and threats or acts of physical violence, our attorneys aggressively pursue the issuance of these orders for the protection for our clients on both a temporary and on a permanent basis.

We also defend our clients against orders which have been issued improperly, for inappropriate purposes, or without grounds to support the allegations or the orders themselves. In situations where the orders are already in place, we can assist our clients in modifying or vacating the existing orders.

Sometimes a parent in a family law dispute obtains a restraining order for the purpose of gaining leverage against the other parent in a child custody or parenting time case. We work aggressively to defend and protect our clients and their rights in those cases. Contact us online or call 303-500-5738 to work with an experienced lawyer.
