Accusations of sexual assault and domestic abuse may seriously damage your freedom and reputation. If you’re looking to be represented in a case like this, the ideal criminal defense lawyer should be knowledgeable about the law and have the necessary skills to support you in court.

  • Putting another in fear of imminent, serious injury
  • Sexual assault
  • Stalking or continued conduct which puts another in reasonable fear of injury

Not all allegations of domestic violence and sexual assault result in charges. According to Pennsylvania law, defendants accused of sexual assault and domestic abuse may instead receive a variety of restraining orders. Protection from Abuse orders, or PFAs for short, are civil restraining orders that have the power to forcibly remove you from your home, order the seizure of your guns, and even strip you of parental responsibility for your children. Similar limitations on your freedom may also be found in Sexual Violence Protective Orders or SVPOs. A protection order may potentially be renewed and continue for up to three years, depending on the situation.
