This puts you in a difficult situation because that person is likely your loved one. We understand that things between couples sometimes get out of hand, but the legal system still holds you accountable.

When you are facing domestic violence charges, the consequences can filter into every area of your life. If a restraining order is granted, you might not be able to return home.
