- Domestic Violence Charges. Domestic violence cases require a sensitive approach. We defend clients against charges of domestic battery, corporal injury to a spouse, elder abuse, and restraining order violations.

Next Step in Preparing Your Defense
Over the past several decades, our Inglewood criminal defense lawyers have obtained a positive reputation with the prosecutors and judges in the Inglewood Court. Our law firm is dedicated to defending you against any type of state or federal crime and is committed to obtaining the best possible outcome on your case.
Our attorneys are California State-Bar Certified Specialists in Criminal Defense Law with vast experience defending clients accused of any type of crime. We frequently handle the pre-filing defense for police investigations, with the goal of preventing the filing of criminal charges or reducing charges before they are filed.
Our defense lawyers have a successful track record of helping numerous clients be exonerated before the court after their arrest. This should provide you with the reassurance you need.
Some of the charges that have been successfully dropped for our clients include domestic violence (Penal Code 273.5 PC), DUI, sex offenses (Penal Code 288 and 311 PC), drug possession and trafficking, and even murder.
The process of causing arrest charges to be dropped keeps a person's record “clean” pursuant to Penal Code 849.5 PC, causing an arrest to be legally considered a “detention” only.
If you've been accused of a crime, the next steps you take can significantly impact the outcome of your case. Early intervention by our top-ranked law firm is not just important; it's crucial. We need to review the details of your case immediately to determine your best legal options moving forward.
