Our domestic violence defense practice is aimed at helping those charged with abuse obtain the means of making a fresh start without destroying the family unit.

Examining Alternatives

A domestic violence charge rarely stems from a single incident, and the triggers or situations that may lead to spousal abuse are as varied as the individuals involved. Work-related stress, substance abuse or a history of growing up in an abusive home may all be factors that contribute. Our firm believes that helping clients charged with domestic violence obtain the tools they need to restore peace to their homes is always preferable to a jail sentence. We have helped numerous clients find assistance and avoid prison through alternative sentencing in activities such as:

• Anger management courses
• Alcoholics Anonymous (AA)
• Substance abuse counseling

Handling Sensitive Matters With Care

These days, those who are charged with domestic violence rarely fit the stereotype of the typical wife beater. Attorney Bert Nisonoff has helped men and women who are good parents, who come from all walks of life, and who want to preserve the family unit. We have helped couples in which a single incident has occurred to find resolution by dropping charges and agreeing to seek more peaceful alternatives to stress. We also address issues in which domestic abuse is alleged as a means of retaliation.
