Domestic Violence

Harris County Domestic Violence Lawyer

The State of Texas has instituted rigid domestic violence laws in an effort to curb the trend of family violence and domestic battery. According to state laws, the District Attorney may pursue a domestic violence charge, even without the express consent of the victim. While the purpose of this law is to protect the alleged victim, the laws have also created a number of situations in which someone is wrongfully arrested, criminally charged, even convicted for domestic violence.

The offices of Matt Horak, Attorney at Law, located in Houston and The Woodlands, Texas, offer skilled and aggressive legal representation to individuals facing a domestic violence charge. Family violence charges may be filed when the police are called to the scene of a domestic disturbance. If an altercation has occurred between you and anyone who shares your home—whether a spouse, sibling, child, parent, in law or roommate, you run the risk of being arrested for domestic violence.
