Being arrested for assault or family violence can seriously impact your life. Aside from the possibility of going to jail, a misdemeanor or felony assault conviction can affect your professional license, livelihood, immigration status and relationships.

Given the number of recent high-profile domestic violence cases, prosecutors are aggressive in these cases and do not dismiss them unless a defense attorney convinces them the case cannot be proven. Even if the complainant does not want to pursue charges, the prosecution will still proceed. The prosecution will not dismiss charges just because the complainant does not want to go forward.
