Domestic violence in Fresno

Although we love our significant other and family members, disagreements can still happen. However, if a verbal fight turns into a physical one, it is possible law enforcement officials will arrest the alleged offender, even if the alleged victim has regrets or made false allegations. That is why it is important to hire an experienced criminal defense attorney to protect your rights and freedom from serious criminal charges.

At Sawl Law Group, we are dedicated to helping you avoid the harsh criminal penalties associated with domestic violence charges. Our Fresno domestic violence defense lawyers can thoroughly assess your case, figure out your available legal options, and build a strong defense strategy that proves either the police violated your constitutional rights or the prosecution has a weak case against you. Do not hesitate to get knowledgeable and skilled legal representation immediately.

Contact us today at (559) 205-7757 to schedule a free consultation with a Fresno domestic violence lawyer.

What is Domestic Violence?

In basic terms, domestic violence occurs when an individual causes physical, mental or emotional harm to another member of their household, either intentionally or through neglect. California Penal Code § 13700(b) defines this violent crime as “abuse committed against an adult or a minor who is a spouse… cohabitant… or person with whom the suspect has had a child or is having or has had a dating or engagement relationship.”

    "They were able to lower my DUI to a much lesser charge of “Wet Reckless” saving me thousands of dollars, and time. So thank you Sawl Law Group, Claudia, and Michelle."

    I just wanted to say a few things about Sawl Law Group. I had never needed to hire an attorney before, so I didn’t know what I was doing, or what to expect. When i had just been charged with a DUI; I had a pile of law offices to choose from. The first one that stood out was Sawl Law Group. They were very professional, and welcoming. Claudia made a long drive, just to meet with me face to face, and have a short conversation about my case, and my options. She made me feel confident that I could do much better than I had hoped. Claudia paired me up with Michelle, the attorney that would then, represent me. She took care of all my court dates (after signing a document of course) which was especially helpful with my crazy work schedule. Not only that, but they were able to lower my DUI to a much lesser charge of “Wet Reckless” saving me thousands of dollars, and time. So thank you Sawl Law Group, Claudia, and Michelle. And to anyone else who finds themselves in a bind; I definitely recommend starting here!

    The Sawl Law Group really, really did an outstanding job for me. They were very invested in my interest to pursue a dismissal for some things I did as a young man. We won the dismissal and my attorney Michelle did a great job and was really caring about my situation. I definitely recommend this group to anyone seeking legal representation!

    Sawl Law Group was such a big help to me. I would definitely recommend anyone who needs a lawyer to them. I currently live in a different state and was unable to appear in court. Sawl Law Group stood in on my behalf. I was so grateful. In the end my warrant was recalled, and I was able to complete the stipulations of my case in my current state. This was such a relief to me. My fee was very affordable, and I was able to be put on a payment arrangement. I couldn’t of asked for better service. My person of contact was Claudia, and she was very helpful, and informative. She answered all my questions, always contacted me back when a message was left, and was always available for me. She walked me through the whole process and I appreciate her support. I just want to thank my lawyer Michelle for working on my behalf and Sawl Law Group for helping me out when I most needed it. So if your searching for a good lawyer who would work on your behalf, please choose Sawl Law Group.

    "Had it not been for Sawl Law Group, I would not have been as far as I am today in my military career."
    This is by far the most experienced and professional team of lawyers I've had the pleasure of working with. The staff was amazing, polite and very attentive to all my questions and needs regarding my case. Mr. Taleisnik was very reassuring regarding the best possible outcome for my case. While preparing my case I was kept well informed and was consistently and accurately updated with any new information. Had it not been for Sawl Law Group, I would not have been as far as I am today in my military carrier. I highly recommend this professional and well experienced team of attorney's.

    "I will forever be grateful to this office who helped me."
    I retained the office to help me with some very serious charges that would hurt my career and long time goals. I was wrongfully accused of taking materials from a job site. I did not take them, this law office help prove my innocence. They helped me find an investigator for my case. The staff was always ready to help me and willing to go the extra step when I had questions. The Attorney later was able to get my case dismissed. I will forever be grateful to this office who helped me. I recommend Sawl Law Group if you want someone fighting for you.
