When a relationship becomes violent, it is serious and reason for concern. This is true when the people involved have no prior relationship. When the individuals have a relationship – the circumstances can become even more difficult to navigate.

​

When a physical violence altercation happens within our relationships or family, the charges involved may be considered domestic violence rather than assault and battery. Domestic violence is violence that occurs within the home or family. Violence that happens between spouses, partners, or between any people with any kind of family relationship is generally considered domestic violence. The accused can find themselves facing serious criminal charges - these charges can lead to a criminal record that can have lasting consequences.

Protection Orders

​

One common way that people find themselves into trouble is by inadvertently violating a protection order. It is important that one understand the limits of a protection order so that a protection order doesn’t turn into a misdemeanor contempt charge.

​

It is against a protection order to do any of the following:

​

• Call the complainant (spouse) on the phone

• Click “like” on the complainant’s Facebook page

• Have a friend call the complainant on the phone on your behalf

• Send or respond to a text message with the complainant

• Visit the complainant in person for any reason

​

Attorney Bradfield can help you make contact with the complainant for issues such as property disbursement or child custody issues.
