What is Domestic Violence?                                                          

Domestic violence in the state of Texas is defined as physical or psychological (threatening language) assault and/or battery, violence, sexual assault or stalking by one member of a family, current or former spouse / significant other against another.  These allegations have very serious consequences if the accused is convicted.  The authorization of a restraining order can greatly disrupt your life making it difficult to go to certain locations, businesses, stores and the like.  Just the accusation of domestic abuse can negatively impact your social and professional life.  Punishment for a conviction can include steep fines, revocation of your driver's license, professional license (doctor, etc.), handgun license, etc. and/or significant time in prison.
