Charges Never Filed
In Utah, domestic violence crimes are treated very seriously by the police and handled very aggressively by prosecutors. Even a minor misunderstanding can lead to serious domestic violence charge. A person charged with a domestic violence offense may be served with a protective order, even before they are convicted of any crime. Domestic violence offenses can also result in someone becoming a “restricted person” which means they can’t have firearms.
Sometimes, the police investigation presents an unfair and biased picture of an incident. We work closely with our clients to get to the truth of what happened as quickly as possible. We make sure that our client’s rights are protected throughout the process.
In this case, our client was accused of a domestic violence offense after a fight with an ex-girlfriend. We worked tirelessly to gather evidence to prove that what the alleged victim said happened never happened. Because of this work, the prosecutor’s office never filed charges against our client. Explore the issue of domestic violence, including its impact, signs, prevention, and resources for support and intervention.

In aggravated assault cases, it is critical for our team of attorneys and private investigators to conduct investigations beyond what law enforcement has done. This includes finding and interviewing additional witnesses and also researching the alleged victim. Often, we’re able to discover other eye-witnesses and even camera footage. We must work quickly, especially if our our client is held in jail. As a result, we can discover the truth and either win at trial or even negotiate a dismissal of the charges.
We proved our client did nothing wrong, and the prosecutor agreed to dismiss the case.
