Domestic Assault

Domestic Assault

Canadian law does not recognize Domestic Assault as separate from an assault, and Courts handle Domestic Assault in a variety of ways. This applies to the Crown Attorneys’ office as well. Domestic violence is a common charge and affects the whole family involved. When Domestic Assault is alleged, by virtue of the Criminal Code, the Crowns and Court must treat this offence in a more serious manner.

Best Domestic Assault Attorney

One of the first issues facing someone charged with Domestic Assault is the imposed separation from their family. Even upon the accused’s release, this separation is a continued order. This likely creates an issue for the accused because it will be nearly impossible for the accused to communicate with his/her spouse without breaching court conditions. Indeed, a charge of Domestic Assault can have many negative effects, even if the two parties wish to reconcile.

Your defence lawyer can help address these issues with the Crown, and if need be, with the Court. The lawyers at East Law will help you navigate the legal process quickly, resolve issues faster, get you home sooner, and help secure you the best possible outcome.
