Often the event itself can be quite minor, but the consequences of being charged with a domestic violence crime can be very serious. If you or a loved one are convicted of a domestic violence offense, the consequences can be devastating. Families can be separated for months or even years, court-mandated counseling can cost many thousands of dollars and lengthy jail sentences can be, and often are, imposed. A domestic violence conviction, even for a misdemeanor, can bar you from possessing firearms and can result in deportation or denial of citizenship.
