What Is Domestic Violence?

In California, domestic violence is simply defined as abuse against an intimate partner. “Abuse” occurs when an individual intentionally or recklessly uses or threatens to use physical force against the victim. An “intimate partner” can be a current

or former spouse, registered domestic partner, fiancé, live-in romantic partner, or a person with whom the accused has had a child.

In addition to intimate partners, several other persons can be considered victims of domestic violence. This includes the defendant's child, as well as any other person related to the defendant by blood or marriage to the second degree, such as brothers and sisters, grandparents, and aunts and uncles.

Domestic violence occurs when you cause injury to someone with whom you have:

  • Cohabitated,
  • Had a romantic relationship, or
  • Share a child.

Other domestic violence situations involve children. You may be charged with a crime if you committed battery against your own children or the children of someone you have been married to or cohabitated with (CPC 273.5). You may also face accusations if you allowed harm to come to your child through either an intentional act or by negligent failure to act.

    "He went above and beyond!"
    Mr. Collins is highly recommended. He really takes the time to listen and answer all your questions. He went above and beyond on helping me out with an issue that was never my fault.
    Erik
    "Randy is the obvious choice!"
    Randy worked tirelessly for over two years to have my case dismissed and I can’t thank him enough for everything that he did for me.

    "They are such a great team to work with."
    I was new in the US and I didn’t know anything or what to do from Day 1 from presenting my case to Randy. He reassured me that he would help me and that I shouldn’t worry. He was very supportive, responsive to every question no matter how silly it was he was very patient and comforting. He knew exactly how to address the problem and had a plan of action and after a long 2 years, he won my case I appreciate every effort Randy & Chris have done. They are such a great team to work with and I would recommend him in a heartbeat

    I hired Randy after my previous attorney failed to give me proper information and caused me to violate my probation. Randy appeared in court for got the issue resolved without any head aches. He was a man of his word and I highly recommend him.

    "⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    Best Criminal Defense Attorney"
    I could not be more grateful or complimentary of how Randy handled my case, as well as the easy communication and genuine care for my well-being. I could not recommend Randy more.

    "An Attorney I Could Trust"
    I called to inquire about a case I was facing, this was one of the many attorneys I was speaking with during a free consult about my next steps. The future was looking more and more alarming as the implications of what I was facing were becoming clear. Halfway through explaining my situation, he interrupted me and asked some basic information, put me on hold for one second and came back telling me he had called around and found out that my case was not proceeding. Four other attorneys I had spoken to did not do this, and in fact had used scare tactics and worst case scenarios to try and hard sell me into signing a retainer. (unfortunately, the evening before I HAD with another attorney signed a retainer but thats for another review) Although I did not need to retain the services of this office, I believe that single action speaks worlds about the integrity, helpfulness, intelligence and capabilities of this office. In a world that is so difficult for the uninitiated, such as the legal system, it seems people are taking advantage of you at every turn. It was a welcome and uplifting experience to see the opposite of that with this law office and I am so grateful I was able to find them and know I could call them if anything were to ever happen to me later in life and know I could trust this team.
