A Recent Legal Victory

The Client's Challenge

We represented a client who, following a difficult divorce, faced persistent false allegations from their former spouse regarding mental health issues. Recently, a false report of domestic violence and child abuse led to our client's arrest and a criminal protection order, preventing them from seeing their children. The opposing party then sought to restrict parenting time in the divorce case.

Our Strategic Approach

Arnold & Associates PC promptly intervened, representing the client in both the new criminal matter and the ongoing divorce proceedings. We worked closely with the district attorney in the criminal case, providing comprehensive information from the divorce matter to present a full picture.

Achieving a Comprehensive Win

Our efforts led to a complete dismissal of the domestic violence and child abuse charges. Furthermore, we successfully won the restriction hearing in the divorce case. Not only was the restriction denied, but the court reinstated all parenting time our client had missed due to the opposing party's actions.

Why This Outcome Was Crucial

This victory held profound significance for our client, preventing severe consequences:

  • Protecting Reputation: A domestic violence conviction carries debilitating social and professional repercussions in today's society.
  • Clearing Accusations: The false child abuse allegations, which sound terrible, could disqualify someone from almost any job or social function. We successfully proved their falsity.
  • Family Connection: The criminal matter and restriction motion would have kept our client from their children for an extended period, allowing the opposing party to further damage their relationship with the children.
