Schaumburg, Illinois: Defense of Domestic Violence Charges
If you have been arrested for domestic battery or domestic violence, you need a criminal defense lawyer who can act immediately on your behalf. An arrest is usually followed by a bond hearing the very next day, when a judge will decide whether to grant you bail and how much the bail amount should be.
The experienced domestic violence defense attorneys at Lagattuta & DeGrazia, P.C., are immediately available to clients facing charges of domestic battery or domestic assault. Call 847-240-5500 now to get help.
Experienced Domestic Violence Defense Lawyers
Our founding partners, attorneys Nick Lagattuta and Joel DeGrazia, each have more than 25 years' experience in criminal law, including working together during the last 15 years as criminal defense lawyers serving the northwest Chicago suburbs. Our attorneys have a long record of success negotiating plea bargains and defending clients at trial.
We represent clients accused of domestic violence charges, including domestic battery, violation of restraining orders and protective orders, and sexual assault.
Our usual strategy when defending domestic violence cases is to proceed quickly to trial in order to defend you against the charges. In some circumstances, we focus instead of getting the charges reduced — if you are convicted of the lesser crime of battery or disorderly conduct, then the consequences are greatly reduced. You would be eligible for probation (also called supervision) instead of jail time, and the conviction may be expunged from your record after 2 years.
