Our law firm's founding lawyer, Richard C. McConathy, has dedicated his career to being a strong, capable and effective criminal defense lawyer. Domestic violence is a very serious legal matter requiring the attention of a skilled lawyer.

Domestic violence used to be viewed as a private matter between two individuals; usually a husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend or sometimes even elder abuse from a family member but that has changed a bit. Given the prevalence of domestic violence and the effect it has on the lives of everyone involved, it is no longer seen as a private matter, but a state matter deemed very serious. All 50 states and the federal government have passed laws criminalizing domestic violence and offering civil relief to the victims. If you have questions about domestic violence or have been charged with Denton county domestic violence, contact an experienced attorney at the Law Offices of Richard C. McConathy for more information on all Denton Domestic Violence matters. Domestic violence charges are serious now and forever more.

A first time offender can face jail time, probation, heavy fines and/or community service. Not only can you face serious legal ramifications, you can lose your job, your children and your good name. Do not let this charge go. Do not think that you can fix things by yourself. The victim cannot go to the district attorney's office to beg for leniency. These cases will go on with or without the testimony of the alleged victim. At this time, you need an experienced Denton County Violence lawyer.
