Family Violence in Texas
Our state classifies domestic violence as “family violence" cases, which means the violence can occur between different members of the family, not only just spouses. Current or former spouses, dating couples, roommates or housemates or couples who share a child in common, are protected by Texas state family violence laws.
The various actions that could be considered domestic violence include the following:
- Causing fear of bodily injury
- Sexual abuse or exploitation
- Emotional abuse
- Financial Abuse
- Causing bodily injury to another
- Stalking
- Criminal Threats
- Neglect, such as depriving food, a safe shelter, or proper clothing
Texas Domestic Violence Defense Strategy
Unlike Texas assault laws, a police officer does not have to witness the domestic violence in order to make an immediate arrest. This means that you could be arrested and charged with the crime of domestic violence based on the word of an angry spouse or out of an act of retaliation. There are many cases in which fraudulent activity results in criminal charges for an innocent person including having arestraining order against you.
Attorney Deandra M. Grant understands the embarrassment, fear, and anxiety that you may be experiencing, and you can look to our firm for the legal assistance that you need in your case.
