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.

THE STAKES: The stakes were high personally and legally for our client, Mary. A conviction would have cost Mary a lot of money along with her job, and if it wasn't done right, she might lose her daughter forever.
THE GOAL: Our client desperately wanted to keep her family together and stay out of jail. We didn't just have to win to meet Mary's goal, we had to win in a way that helped Mary reconcile with her daughter. Luckily, we don't shy away from the hard ones!
OUTCOME / RESULT: Mother and daughter’s relationship allowed to heal! The domestic assault charge was dismissed. The violation of probation charge also dismissed.
