The Serious Impact of a Spousal Abuse Charge

Unlike other criminal charges, spousal abuse cases can impact your home life, parental rights, and standing in the community immediately after an arrest. Courts often issue protective orders, separating families before the facts are even reviewed.

A spousal abuse conviction may result in:

  • Jail or prison sentences
  • Heavy fines and legal fees
  • Loss of child custody or visitation rights
  • A permanent criminal record that affects employment and housing
  • Restraining orders that limit where you can go and who you can see
  • Immigration consequences for non-citizens
  • Damage to your professional reputation and licenses

At Tedford & Associates, we understand what’s on the line. We work aggressively to reduce or dismiss charges, protect your family rights, and safeguard your future.
