Domestic Violence Battery Defense in Brevard County

Battery between spouses, partners, relatives, or household members carries consequences ordinary battery does not. Heather Harris helps clients respond from the first appearance forward.

What this involves

• Modifying no-contact orders We can ask the court to relax conditions so you can return home or see your children while the case proceeds.
• Examining the relationship element The State must prove a qualifying domestic relationship; that element is not always as clear as the arrest report suggests.
• Addressing a recanting witness When the alleged victim does not support prosecution, we evaluate how that affects the State's evidence.
