Can Domestic Violence Charges Be Dropped in Nassau County?
Domestic violence charges in Nassau County are taken very seriously. Many people believe that if the alleged victim wants to drop the charges, the case will automatically end. That’s not true. Once an arrest is made, the District Attorney decides whether to continue with the case—not the victim.
Even if the alleged victim changes their mind, the case can still move forward. The DA reviews the evidence carefully and considers factors like police reports, witness statements, and any physical evidence. In some situations, charges may be reduced or dismissed, but this usually happens only if there is a lack of evidence or errors in the investigation.
Domestic violence charges can carry serious consequences, including jail time, fines, probation, and restraining orders. Because of this, having an experienced criminal defense lawyer is critical. Hochhauser Criminal & DWI Defense can provide expert guidance, explain rights, and help navigate the court process to achieve the best possible outcome.
