Not Guilty on Charged with Domestic Violence | Boston Domestic Violence Attorney | The Law Office of Matthew Peterson

Successful Defense Against Charged with Domestic Violence

In January 2017, the Law Office of Matthew W. Peterson achieved a significant legal victory by securing a NOT GUILTY verdict for a client facing serious charged with domestic violence. Had the client been convicted, he would have faced not only jail time and probation but also the potential loss of his gun rights. The case involved allegations that our client had pushed his wife down the stairs. However, we presented a compelling argument that the accusations were motivated by a desire to gain leverage in an ongoing divorce.

Our defense emphasized the absence of any injuries consistent with such a violent act, which resonated with the jury. Ultimately, they agreed with our defense and found our client NOT GUILTY of all charges. This case exemplifies our commitment to fighting for justice and protecting our clients’ rights.
