Dallas Area Counsel for All Types of Domestic Violence

Violence and aggressive acts against a spouse or a domestic partner—including former spouses or partners—represent the most common forms of domestic violence. According to the Texas Penal Code, such acts are prosecutable as domestic assault or aggravated domestic assault. Repeated incidents could lead to charges of continuous violence against the family.

It is important to understand that you could face the same charges if the alleged victim is your child, your partner's child, or the child of a former romantic partner. Domestic assault charges are usually handled as felonies, and the severity of the associated penalties depends on the specific circumstances of the case.

Other Types of Child Abuse

In addition to domestic assault, there are a number of other charges that could be brought against you related to the alleged abuse of a child. At The Crowder Law Firm, P.C., we are equipped to help you defend against charges of:

• Indecency with a child;
