Chambers Law Firm makes an excellent choice of representation, thanks to our detailed knowledge of the legal statutes and case law relevant to domestic violence crimes, and to our dedication to securing the best possible outcome for our clients.

Common Domestic Violence Crimes

There is a tendency to think of domestic violence as something that goes on between husbands and wives. But the reality is, spouses, fiancés, cohabitants, dating partners, and even exes with whom you have children are all protected under domestic violence laws. Depending on the details of the alleged abuse, you could face charges for:

Domestic Battery: Any offensive touching of a domestic partner can result in charges for domestic battery. The contact does not have to leave any visible injury.

Corporal Injury to a Spouse: If you hit, kick, scratch, slap, or otherwise violently attack a domestic partner and it leaves any kind of visible injury, you could be charged with this crime.

Criminal Threats: If you make a threat against a domestic partner, you may be charged with criminal threats. This crime may not sound too serious, but it can be charged as a felony, in which case it could count as a felony under the California Three Strikes Law.

Intimate Partner Stalking: Following a current or former intimate partner and/or engaging in a pattern of harassing or threatening behaviors is a special form of stalking that can be prosecuted as a domestic violence crime.

Elder Abuse: In cases where the domestic partner is 65 or older, any kind of physical or emotional abuse could result in charges for elder abuse.

Client Testimonial

I first worked with Dan in 2014 on a case which lasted about 3 years. It was my first time ever hiring an attorney for anything that being said first time being in that position. He made feel safe and things were going to be okay. My family and I can't go without saying Thank you because I don't know where I'd be if I didn't receive his services. Dan is honestly an amazing attorney to work with not only is he professional but is a friend too. I just recently hired him again and I'll tell everyone of you who's reading this. Dan Chambers has done a remarkable job. I can tell you this after knowing him for 7 years I would most definitely keep in touch and refer anyone who is in need of help to him knowing he will do everything in his power to help you. Once again thank you Chambers Law.
