Domestic Violence FAQs
Can the alleged victim drop the charges?
No. The State Attorney’s Office decides whether to prosecute, even if the alleged victim does not want to proceed. However, our firm takes every step to get the case dismissed or resolved quickly.
Will I go to jail?
Not always. Outcomes depend on the facts, your history, and the strength of the evidence. That being said, Mr. Greenwald has over 20 years of obtaining successful outcomes for his clients.
Can this charge be removed from my record?
A conviction for domestic violence cannot be sealed or expunged in Florida. This is why it's so important to hire a private attorney early in the process to try to get the case dismissed.
