Summit Defense believes that families should be allowed to work their issues out without interference from the courts. Domestic Violence penalties such as a criminal record and potential jail does nothing to calm or help domestic tranquility. In fact, in the majority of domestic violence cases that we handle, the accuser deeply regrets their decision to have involved the police in the first place.

Summit domestic violence attorneys represent more professionals accused of spousal battery or spousal abuse than any other law firm in Northern California. We approach these cases very aggressively to get charges dropped so that our clients and their families don't suffer the consequences of a criminal conviction.
