THE STAKES: If granted, our client would have been completely at the mercy of his ex-girlfriend if he ever wanted to see his children.

CASE BRIEF:
Domestic violence lawyer case study of a client accused of domestic assault by her daughter in Davidson County. If the case was not dismissed, out client would also face a probation violation charge for a previous DUI.
