New York Domestic Violence Lawyers

Assault Attorneys in Newburgh

Experienced Domestic Violence Defense in Middletown

In an effort to better deal with the problem of domestic violence, many of New York's cities and counties have dedicated resources for domestic violence crimes and have established integrated domestic violence courts (IDV). In general, this has led to more aggressive prosecution and more serious consequences for defendants. In fact, even a simple harassment charge today could be hand-picked and handled by a special prosecutor.

At Larkin Axelrod Ingrassia & Tetenbaum, LLP, we have had extensive experience and success with defending individuals in IDV courts and in general criminal courts throughout the Hudson Valley and the state of New York.

Being convicted of a domestic violence crime can put you in jail, cost you your right to own or possess a firearm and may even lead to the loss of your professional license. Do what you can to minimize the damage and call or contact our attorneys today.

Our experience, resources and team approach have helped our lawyers establish a long, successful track record of results in defending clients charged with various domestic violence offenses, including:

  • Stalking or harassment
  • Assault
  • Domestic battery
  • Spousal abuse
  • Violating a restraining order
  • Child abuse or endangerment
  • Menacing (terroristic threats)
  • Sexual assault

Have you been falsely accused of domestic violence? Unfortunately, because making a false accusation of domestic abuse is often the easiest way to gain the upper hand in custody or property division disputes, this kind of allegation is not at all uncommon in divorce situations. In this situation, the most important thing to understand is that you need to talk to an attorney about your defense as soon as possible.

At Larkin Axelrod Ingrassia & Tetenbaum, LLP, we understand the importance of what is at stake and can put decades of New York criminal defense experience and success on your side. We will thoroughly investigate the allegations being made against you and will prepare a defense specifically designed to rebut the testimony of your accuser.
