Domestic Violence Is a Very Serious Charge in Nevada
Visitors, travelers and tourists in Nevada may not realize how seriously domestic violence allegations (also known as spousal abuse or domestic assault) are taken in our state. In fact, domestic violence is one of the most common causes of arrest in Las Vegas and surrounding communities.
It may come as a surprise that few of these arrests actually involve significant injury. A simple shoving match on a casino floor or loud altercation in a hotel room is often enough for a report to be made and an arrest to occur. Once someone is arrested, it is up to the prosecutor, not the alleged victim, to file charges. Even if the alleged victim does not want to press charges, the case can — and often will — continue.
All this means that if you or a loved one has been arrested for domestic violence in Las Vegas or another Nevada community, you need experienced and vigorous criminal defense representation.
