Domestic Violence
South Carolina Criminal Defense Attorneys
Domestic Violence cases are far from uncommon in criminal law courts. These types of cases are frequent enough that the consequences and penalties for a domestic violence offense have become harsher.
Even though many claims of domestic violence are legitimate, some claims can be exaggerated, baseless, or simply filed out of spite. Filing a domestic violence charge requires little evidence, and cases can get pushed through court even if the person who pressed charges decides to drop them.
