If you have been charged with Domestic Violence, you’re going to require a skilled Phoenix Defense Attorney.

The most common defense utilized with regard to Assault or Domestic Violence Assault is “Self Defense” or “Justification”. In most assault situations, the alleged “victim” will often be the one who makes the first aggressive movement towards the person who has been charged. This usually occurs when alcohol is involved. For example, if the alleged victim is impaired by alcohol, and then attempts to push you or grab you, if you simply pull away they may lose their balance and injure themselves. You now automatically become the prime suspect because you were not injured, but they were.
