It is imperative that you contact an experienced criminal defense attorney if you have been arrested or charged with assault-family violence.  When the police are called out to a domestic disturbance, somebody usually ends up in jail.  Allegations of domestic or spousal abuse receive quick responses from law enforcement as well as the district attorney’s office. Most of the time assault-family violence cases will be filed, even if the alleged victim does not want to co-operate.  In fact, the Denton County District Attorney’s Office has a “no-drop” policy, meaning once charges are filed, they will not be dismissed.  This is true even if the alleged victim requests that they be dismissed or cannot even be found when the case goes to trial.  A skilled defense attorney can make a difference in the outcome of your case.  If you have been arrested or charged with assault-family violence, contact the Law Office of Gina Brock for a free consultation to discuss your legal options.

“Law enforcement and prosecutors spend significant time and resources prosecuting domestic violence.”

Prosecutors and lawmakers are under pressure to show that they are tough on domestic abuse.  Gina can provide a strong and aggressive defense against prosecutors, alleged victims, and the criminal justice system. Because of this, law enforcement and prosecutors spend significant time and resources prosecuting domestic violence.

When a domestic dispute escalates to the point where the police become involved, people can get caught up in a system they don’t understand.  Even minor disputes may receive the attention of the district attorney’s office because the person deemed to be the “primary aggressor” is arrested and sent to jail with very little investigation.  In cases where the alleged victim does not want a criminal prosecution, there is even more pressure for the DA to go forward with the case.  An arrest for domestic violence may lead to a temporary restraining order that may prevent you from seeing your children or going home.  We can help get your family back together and your personal life back to normal.
