Domestic Violence in Bellevue

Our Bellevue Domestic Violence Attorneys Will Defend Your Interests

Domestic violence crimes are serious, and the repercussions of a conviction can be life-altering. A conviction in Bellevue will result in mandatory punishments, and could even cause you to lose your job. Financial ruin and untold emotional strain on every member of your family are also possible outcomes. If you're facing this serious charge, contact our Bellevue domestic violence lawyers today so that they can start building a defense.

When it comes to domestic violence, the severity of the domestic violence crime will determine the severity of the punishment. Most domestic violence cases in Bellevue are classified as gross misdemeanors, and a conviction could result in up to a year behind bars and fines totaling $5,000. If the victim suffered any injuries at the hands of the accused, the charge could be elevated to a felony. If the accused has any prior convictions, the charge could be elevated to a Class C felony, with penalties of up to five years in jail and fines totaling $10,000.

If property was damaged during the incident, a Bellevue malicious mischief charge could be tacked onto the domestic violence charge, which incurs even more possible penalties. If you are currently facing any of these charges, we recommend that you speak with one of our qualified Bellevue domestic violence attorneys about your situation.

Our Bellevue Domestic Violence Lawyers Offer A Free Consultation

Domestic ViolenceWhen a law enforcement officer responds to a domestic dispute call, they often arrest the party who appears to be the aggressor. The state will almost always seek a conviction, even if the alleged victim doesn't want to press charges. A no-contact order is routinely issued in these situations, which prevents the two parties from having any kind of contact.

It's also possible that the alleged victim will be awarded a protection order. If the order is violated, it may lead to another arrest with additional charges. This turn of events should be avoided at all costs, as it would make it even more difficult to mitigate the damage from the original charge.
