Columbus Domestic Violence Charges Dismissed For Young Woman

Posted On: July 8th, 2016

The Columbus criminal defense team at Luftman, Heck & Associates recently came to the aid of a young woman when a domestic violence charge put her in a very precarious legal position. The woman was apparently traveling in a car with her boyfriend when they began arguing and he made a vulgar comment to her. This resulted in the woman slapping him and demanding to be let out of the car. He stopped the automobile and she got out; however, some bystanders thought that the man had forced her from the car and called the police. Subsequently, the authorities stopped the man, who explained the situation and since he was struck, the woman was charged, despite the man’s objection. She understandably did not want a criminal conviction for domestic violence sending her to jail or tarnishing her record; therefore, she reached out to criminal defense attorney Joseph J. Kunkel in her time of need.

Attorney Kunkel knows too well how difficult it is to move on from a domestic violence conviction since these offenses are very hard to expunge. To avoid her future being unnecessarily jeopardized, he took her case and began working to alleviate her concerns. Attorney Kunkel used his ample experience dealing with similar assault and domestic cases to negotiate with the prosecution. These discussions resulted in a dismissal of the charges for cause and the woman was relieved to move on with her life, knowing that the incident can be completely removed from her record through an expungement.
