Long Beach Domestic Violence Offenses

A criminal offense is considered Domestic Violence related when the act is perpetrated against a person who is one of the following:

  • Your spouse or former spouse
  • Your cohabitant or former cohabitant
  • Your fiance` or former fiancée
  • A person you are currently dating or have previously dated
  • The mother or father of your child

Crimes such as Spousal Abuse and Domestic Battery are clear-cut Domestic Violence-related offenses, whereas criminal offenses such as Vandalism and Criminal Threats are only considered Domestic Violence related if they are committed against a person with whom you share or previously shared a domestic relationship with.

Domestic Violence Punishment And Sentencing In Long Beach

The penalties you face for a Domestic Violence conviction are dependent on several different factors. Whether you have previously been convicted of a Domestic Violence related offense, the severity, and frequency of the abuse, as well as whether children were present, or whether a weapon was used. A skilled criminal defense attorney with expertise in defending Domestic Violence cases in Long Beach Court can be the most critical factor towards ensuring your case is fought on a level playing field to secure the best possible outcome for you. As “wobbler” offenses, Domestic Violence crimes can be prosecuted as either misdemeanors or felonies. If you are charged with a misdemeanor in Long Beach, you face up to 1 year in LA County Jail, a court-mandated 52-week batterer’s program, probation up to 5 years, fines up to $1,000, a restraining order, and loss of gun ownership rights for 10 years. For a felony, your punishment and sentencing would be enhanced, exposing you to stricter terms of probation, or worse, incarceration in California State Prison.

Client Testimonials

We think our clients say it best...

We wanted to thank you so very much for representing Cory. We could not be more relieved with the outcome. We are so grateful to you and your staff. We know that you worked hard and there were many obstacles. It was a pleasure meeting you and we will definitely recommend you in the future to anyone who may be in need of you services- hopefully not “us” (bet you hear that often!). We filled out your review on AVVO and hope that brings in more business for you. Although, you seem to be extremely busy already…. Are you sure you want more work? Maybe a nice vacation or early retirement would be a better idea?

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts and God bless you and your family now and always.

Dear Mr. Kim,

Thank you very much for your efforts to obtain justice for our son.  There was no way that we could have compiled enough information on our son to exonerate him.  Without your assistance, he might have been a casualty of the justice system instead of a success.  You are a very compassionate man who is willing to go the extra mile to help your fellow man.  Our son’s story could have had an unhappy ending if not for your tireless dedication.  God bless you.

I have worked in law enforcement for more than 20 years. For 3 years, I was assigned to Court Services Bureau for the largest Sheriff’s Department in the United States. This means I was assigned to various courtrooms as a Bailiff. As a member of a Superior Court staff, I have dealt with many attorneys and law firms. I do not believe you will find a more caring, compassionate, educated, experienced or professional attorney than Mr. Paul Takakjian.
