Defending the Accused
False accusations of domestic violence are not uncommon. A spouse might make an accusation to gain an advantage during a divorce. A dispute amongst family members may cause tempers to flair and irrational decisions are made. No matter the scenario, if someone is accused of harming a person he or she lives with, the state of Florida takes the claim extremely seriously.
Conviction on a domestic violence charge can carry various penalties, starting with one year in county jail for a misdemeanor. Depending on the level of violence involved, the accused could be facing felony charges.

At the Law Offices of Mark G. Rodriguez, P.A., I represent people on both sides of domestic violence injunctions, commonly known as restraining orders.
