Domestic Violence Attorney in Pasadena

Understanding Domestic Violence in California

In the United States, over three million incidents of domestic violence are reported every year. While most domestic violence cases are usually committed against women, men can also be victims of domestic violence. Additionally, harm inflicted on children, other family members, or intimate partners are considered domestic violence as well.

There are many types of domestic violence that can be inflicted on a victim besides physical harm. Other forms of domestic violence include emotional, psychological, sexual, or even financial abuse. If you or a loved one is a victim of domestic violence, our Pasadena criminal law attorneys at the Law Offices of Christopher L. Hoglin, P.C. can provide you with a free confidential consultation to discuss your legal options and help you secure the safety and protection you and your family deserve.
