San Antonio, Texas, Family Violence Defense and TRO Lawyer
In Texas, district attorneys take charges of family violence very seriously. Police called to a home because of a family argument are almost certain to arrest at least one of the individuals involved. Separating the two parties would typically be enough to defuse a dangerous situation but an arrest is often made for assault or battery. Small arguments and misunderstandings often result in a felony charge that can haunt a person for years. Unfortunately, it doesn't often matter whether the alleged victim retracts the complaint later. After the formal charge has been made, the criminal justice process begins.
We don't defend family violence. We protect the legal rights of the accused.
If you have been charged with domestic violence or are found in violation of a police protect order or a civil restraining order, the Law Offices of Ralph E. Williamson will represent you vigorously to protect your rights. For more than a dozen years attorney Ralph Williamson has been working with police and prosecutors throughout central Texas to find common-sense solutions for people who have been charged with crimes relating to family violence. That means working hard to find education programs, whenever possible, instead of a jail sentence. We use every legal strategy to work toward a dismissal or reduction of charges. At our firm, it's about protecting your constitutional rights in the criminal justice system. It's not about defending domestic abuse.
If you are seeking protection from family violence
We also work with victims of family violence who are seeking the protections that a police protective order or a civil temporary restraining order provides. If you think you are in danger of violence from an ex-spouse or anybody else with whom you shared a relationship, it is important to protect yourself and your family immediately.
