\Perry County Domestic Violence Attorney Gerard Mangieri

Perry County Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Attorney

One of the most severe blows to your image and independence is being accused of sexual assault or domestic abuse. If you are being accused of such crimes, having an exceptionally educated criminal defense lawyer who will be able to guide you through the legal system and will be knowledgeable about the law is a must.

Pennsylvania law defines domestic violence as actions between family or household members, sexual or intimate partners, or persons who share biological parenthood, which may include the following:

  • Causing, or attempting to cause physical injury
  • Putting another in fear of imminent, serious injury
  • Sexual assault
  • Stalking or continued conduct which puts another in reasonable fear of injury

The law refers to engaging in sexual activity with another individual without that person’s permission as sexual assault in Pennsylvania. Several distinct sexual offenses are prohibited by Pennsylvania law, and if you are found guilty of one of them, you may be required to register as a sex offender. It’s crucial to have a seasoned criminal defense lawyer in Perry County at your side who won’t back down from defending you in court in the “me too” era.

Criminal charges are not the only form of indictment for sexual assault and domestic abuse. According to Pennsylvania law, courts may also impose various restraining orders on anyone accused of sexual assault and domestic abuse. 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 deny you custody of your children. All of these actions have the potential to severely restrict your freedom. Similar limitations on your freedom may also be found in SVPOs, which is short for Sexual Violence Protective Orders. Depending on the situation, a protection order may potentially be extended for an additional three years.
