DV Defense: Assault, Harassment, Stalking and Intimidation
Beresky & Fish, P.C. — For a Strong and Unyielding Defense of Your Rights
No one gets into an argument with his or her spouse or significant other or roommate and thinks:
"Wait a minute — this could escalate into a fight or even into just yelling and screaming and someone, a neighbor or passerby, might hear it and call the police who will then show up at our door to arrest me! I'd rather not argue."
No one thinks that. But when something like that does happen, the person can suddenly face a criminal charge and live under the terms of a restraining order that has literally taken their previous life away from them.
If you've been accused of assault, harassment, stalking or intimidation in connection with domestic violence, contact the experienced criminal defense lawyers at Beresky & Fish, P.C. in Phoenix, Arizona.
Our firm handles a wide variety of domestic violence cases in the Phoenix area and throughout Maricopa, Yavapai and Pinal counties, including cases that involve accusations of harassment, stalking and intimidation.
Generally speaking, individuals accused of such acts have a hard time believing that they have committed a crime of domestic violence if for no other reason than there was no physical violence involved. Understandable as that is, the law says that unwanted contact between two people that directly or indirectly communicates a threat or places the victim in fear can be considered assault, stalking, harassment and intimidation.
Because the consequences of a domestic violence conviction can be severe, our attorneys, both of whom are former prosecutors, provide strong defense representation and seek to challenge the evidence, or at least change the interpretation of it toward a favorable outcome for our client.
