Henderson Domestic Violence Defense Attorney

Henderson is a sizeable urban center and home to a large number of families. It is considered one of the safest cities in Nevada, and one of the most progressive. Nonetheless, even in a well-developed community, one or two serious crimes can pop up. For instance, a Henderson local can potentially face a serious domestic violence charge from their spouse or partner.

Domestic violence is a severe criminal charge that not only affects your professional life, but your personal life as well. It can have far-reaching consequences that go beyond the potential unemployment risk, unfairly turning you into an outcast in the community.

When facing such severe domestic violence complaints in Henderson, it is best to contact a veteran defense attorney in Las Vegas that can help you find a way out.

Enforcing Domestic Violence Laws in Henderson

Henderson falls under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Judicial District of Clark County; as such, its laws and rules with Las Vegas to its northeast. For most domestic battery cases, the Henderson Municipal Court takes over. However, cases can be handed over to the Henderson Justice Court if the complaint already warrants a felony. It can even be elevated to the Clark County District Court if the charge is far too severe.

A person suspected of committing domestic violence in Henderson would be held in Henderson Detention Center just a short distance away from the courts, unless the accused manages to post bail. Local law enforcement offices are also located in the same general area.

  • Domestic Battery

    "I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for."
    I met with Mr. Goodman who answered all my questions and knew his stuff.  I decided to hire a less expensive attorney but was not happy with the progress ended up being a waste of money with the other guy. I switched and hired Mr. Goodman and could not have been more impressed with the outcome. You do get what you pay for. I should have gone with my gut reaction at the beginning that would have saved me anxiety, time, and money. Don’t make the same mistake.
