Client got into an argument with a family member and there was some pushing and shoving. The police were called and client was charged with domestic assault & battery. Client quickly hired our firm. We immediately started speaking to the prosecutor and got the family member involved as well. We pointed out how the police report was inaccurate and misleading and communicated to the prosecutor what the family member would actually testify to: not being assaulted. Prosecutor then dismissed the case before trial.
Court: Alexandria Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court
