What You Need to Do Now
The first step in defending yourself against domestic violence accusations is to speak with an experienced attorney. If you are charged with assaulting a family member, never assume the charges will simply be dropped if they decide they no longer want to prosecute. The state can always choose to go ahead with your prosecution.
You also must realize that any weapon present at the time of the alleged assault, whether it's a pair of scissors or a spoon, can be seen by prosecution or jury as a deadly weapon. If you believe you were acting in self defense or simply the victim of false allegations or mistaken identity, it is extremely important that you notify an attorney immediately.
