Experience with Criminal Complaints in Divorce Proceedings
Over the past several years, our firm has noticed a significant increase in divorce clients faced with criminal complaints or protective orders. The motivation in these cases is often malice or to gain a tactical advantage in their divorce and/or custody proceeding. Our firm has been extremely successful in having the false allegations dismissed and using the misconduct of the reporting party to our advantage. For example, when a mother filed a child protective services complaint preventing the father from having contact with the child, we proved in Court that the mother coerced the child to lie and custody was granted to the father.

Protective Order
Domestic Violence
Our client's estranged wife had filed a protective order to prohibit him from having contact with her to gain exclusive use and possession of the home. We were successful in showing that she had motive to fabricate and that had consulted with an attorney regarding getting our client out of her house days before filing the request for a protective order.
-
Pre Litigation Defense – Rape
Sex Crimes
Our client was the respondent of a protective order wherein the petitioner alleged that she was raped. She sought a two-year protective order and was seeking to have detectives assist in securing warrants against him. We suspect that the admissions made on cross-examination by the alleged victim at the hearing will prevent the Commonwealth from bringing any charges.
