Domestic Violence Battery Charge Dropped

A recent Umansky Law Firm client was arrested for domestic violence battery in Brevard County. The man, a professional business person, and his wife were involved in a heated argument. Our client and the alleged victim met at a park to discuss some things going on in their relationship and things spiraled from there. Our client was arrested, but his wife did not want her husband to be prosecuted and took responsibility for most of the client's anger. To make matters worse, our client was given an order not to contact the alleged victim as well as ordered to live in another location other than his home.

Umansky Law Firm attorney Lindsey Gergely argued a Motion to Modify Contact in front of the judge, and convinced the judge to allow the client and the alleged victim to have contact and return home. Next, Attorney Gergely argued this was a case that was going to be hard to prove against the client based on the alleged victim's unwillingness to cooperate with the prosecution. There was also a lack of physical evidence. Due to these convincing arguments, the intake prosecutor decided not to file formal charges on the client and his nightmare was over before the arraignment date.

If you have been charged with domestic violence in Orange County or Orlando, Florida, or anywhere else in the state of Florida, please contact the experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Umansky Law Firm.
