Many people incorrectly believe that domestic violence (DV) is a title to a crime.
A domestic violence (DV) designation can be added to any crime where the alleged vitim is a person who fits the legal definition of a family or household member.
For example, if you are alleged to have stolen money from a parent, the alleged crime charged might be Theft (DV).
When individuals are charged with a crime involving an allegation of domestic violence, often listed as DV on a ticket or charging document, there can be additional penalties and consequences to the defendant.

We frequently represent individuals charged with driving offenses, such as driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or a drug, also described as a DUI, or DWI.
It is important to note that when a person is charged with a DUI, he or she is being prosecuted by two different government entities.
The first is the prosecutor in the jurisdiction in which he or she were charged.
If convicted in court by a prosecutor in this venue then the person charged will have been convicted of a crime, a gross misdemeanor offense, and upon first conviction, carries a minimum sentence of 24 consecutive hours in jail, $940 minimum fine in addition to court costs, a 90 day suspension of driver's license and a requirement for the person to install an ignition interlock device.
