False Allegations of Domestic Violence in Nevada: How to Fight Back
Domestic violence charges in Nevada carry serious legal consequences, including jail time, mandatory counseling fines, and a permanent criminal record. They also carry “collateral consequences” that jeopardize employment options, second amendment (firearm) rights, child custody cases in family court and even immigration issues. Unfortunately, false allegations of battery domestic violence (BDV) are more common than many people realize. These accusations can stem from revenge, child custody disputes, divorce proceedings, or even misunderstandings.
If you have been falsely accused of domestic violence, you must take immediate action to protect your freedom, reputation, and future. A strong legal defense led by Josh Tomsheck, a board-certified criminal defense attorney, can help you fight back against false accusations.
