Louisville Domestic Violence Attorneys
Domestic violence covers a wide range of abuse, including spousal abuse, child endangerment, stalking and harassment. Any threatening or violent act could be grounds for prosecution.
Protecting Yourself from Domestic Violence
If you have been victimized or feel that you are in danger from domestic violence, please do not wait to protect yourself. In Jefferson County, you can take out an Emergency Protective Order (EPO) 24 hours a day at the Hall of Justice at 600 West Jefferson Street. However, an Emergency Protective Order has no force behind it, in and of itself. The police will enforce the order only if someone violates it, and then only if someone reports the violation.
Defending Your Case
Domestic Violence cases are treated differently than other criminal cases. The law is often complex. Additionally, Prosecutors aggressively go after defendant's accused of domestic violence. This is why it is important to secure an attorney who is knowledgeable about specific Kentucky Domestic Violence laws. At Barow & Weigle our domestic violence attorneys will aggressively defend your case and will take advantages of jail alternatives such as counseling and probation.
