“Milligan Beswick Levine & Knox is an exceptional firm, with great attorneys. I was originally referred to Mr. Milligan by a close friend and was remarkably impressed with the way their office managed my case. Professional, attentive, and most importantly – successful. I have also had the pleasure of working with Mr. Levine and Mr. Knox in a variety of matters. Their legal superiority is second to none in the area. Since working with them, I have referred a number of people to their office. Each person I have referred has personally thanked me for the referral (which is always nice to hear).“

What are the Consequences of Domestic Violence
When a partner accuses you of domestic violence, you face many serious legal and personal challenges.
- You could find yourself subject to an emergency civil protection order. A domestic violence restraining order can cause significant upheaval to your life.
- Credible accusations of domestic violence in family court can mean you need to move out of a shared home.
- Child custody decisions can be impacted by domestic violence charges.
The possibility of criminal charges is also very real in cases where domestic violence is alleged. You could be charged with a misdemeanor or a felony offense depending upon the circumstances. Important factors in determining possible penalties include whether you have a past record, if a weapon was used, and if a serious injury occurred or could have resulted.
Prosecutors can pursue criminal charges even without the cooperation of the alleged victim, so you need to react aggressively when accused.
