Beverly Hills Domestic Violence Attorney
Arrested for Domestic Violence in Beverly Hills? Your Defense Starts Now
If you have been arrested for domestic violence in Beverly Hills, do not wait. Beverly Hills police and Los Angeles County prosecutors move aggressively in these cases. Charges are filed fast, protective orders are issued at your first court appearance, and you can be removed from your home and cut off from your children before anyone has reviewed whether the accusation is even accurate. A misdemeanor conviction alone means jail time, a mandatory 52-week program, a permanent criminal record, and a lifetime firearm ban. A felony means years in state prison. The decisions made in the first hours after your arrest will shape everything that follows. Contact a Beverly Hills domestic violence attorney at The Law Offices of Arash Hashemi immediately for a free, confidential consultation.
Domestic Violence Charges We Defend in Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills domestic violence arrests result in a range of charges depending on the circumstances. Our firm defends clients against all of them:
- Domestic Battery (PC 243(e)(1)) — any use of force against an intimate partner, no visible injury required
- Corporal Injury to a Spouse or Cohabitant (PC 273.5) — felony charge when any physical injury results, including minor bruising
- Criminal Threats (PC 422) — threatening statements made during a dispute, no physical contact required
- Protective Order Violations (PC 273.6) — a single text or call in violation of a protective order triggers new charges
- Child Endangerment (PC 273a) — frequently added when a child was present during the incident
- Stalking (PC 646.9) — often filed in cases involving ongoing disputes or separation
Once the case is in the hands of the prosecution, the alleged victim cannot simply drop the charges. Prosecutors move forward using 911 recordings, officer reports, and physical evidence even when the alleged victim recants or refuses to cooperate. You need a Beverly Hills criminal defense attorney working on your case immediately.
Protecting Yourself After a Domestic Violence Arrest in Beverly Hills
- Do not contact the alleged victim under any circumstances. A single call, text, or message in violation of a protective order results in new criminal charges filed the same day.
- Do not discuss the incident with anyone. Jail calls are recorded and text messages and social media posts are regularly collected and handed to prosecutors.
- Do not surrender firearms without first speaking to a Beverly Hills criminal defense attorney about the proper process and how to protect your rights.
- Contact a Beverly Hills domestic violence attorney immediately. The earlier an attorney is involved in your case, the more options you have to challenge the charges, influence bail decisions, and protect your record.
How Our Beverly Hills Domestic Violence Attorney Fights Your Case
Cases are won and lost in the early stages. Our firm gets involved immediately to challenge the evidence before the prosecution builds their narrative.
We contact the prosecuting agency before charges are formally filed where possible, present your side of the story, and provide evidence that contradicts the arrest account. This early intervention has resulted in charges being rejected or reduced before a case ever reaches the courtroom.
When charges have already been filed, we scrutinize every piece of the prosecution’s evidence — the police report, 911 recording, body camera footage, and photographs — for gaps, inconsistencies, and violations of your rights. We challenge false and exaggerated accusations directly, investigate the accuser’s background and motivations, and present self-defense arguments where the facts support them.
We appear at your arraignment to fight for the narrowest possible protective order, seeking peaceful contact terms when appropriate and contesting any restrictions that go beyond what the case actually supports.
