Domestic Violence Laws in California
Domestic violence Laws have undergone lots of changes recently. If charged under the law, you should seek to protect your rights through the use of a domestic violence lawyer in Orange County. 

At the time of the incident, the police lacked the resources to find out who was right or wrong. In most cases, they take the accused person to jail. But many times, domestic violence situations lack a real question of fact. 

What Does Domestic Violence Include?
If charged under domestic violence, the act could be treated as a misdemeanor or felony. In addition, it's also highly likely that the victim of domestic violence could obtain an order of protection from the court. If you're found guilty, they could proceed with a civil lawsuit and recover any damages suffered by them.
