Domestic Violence Charges in Connecticut

Written By CT Criminal Defense Lawyer, Attorney Tina Sypek D’Amato

I am a criminal defense lawyer with the knowledge, the experience, and the passion necessary to provide a vigorous defense of someone charged with assault and battery involving a police officer, a spouse, a boyfriend or girlfriend, or a stranger at a bar.

In many cases, a charge of domestic violence should have been charged as a simple breach of the peace. A charge of assault on a police officer may have begun with a police stop that was a clear case of racial discrimination.

Tina demonstrates genuine compassion for people who have become entangled in charges of domestic violence, assault on a police officer, or any variety of assault and battery. She is determined to provide clients with all the protection the Constitution extends to accused citizens. “Innocent until proven guilty,” is a fundamental principle of our criminal law and Tina will make sure it works for you.

Tina is often successful in negotiating diversionary programs such as anger management programs in lieu of prison time, or even conviction.

Domestic assault charges can impact entire families. The accused person may be shut out of their home and denied access to their children. At the Law Office of Tina Sypek D’Amato, you will find an attorney who demonstrates genuine compassion for people who have been charged with domestic assault.

Just because you have been charged with domestic assault, spousal abuse, child abuse, child neglect or any other type of family violence does not mean that you are powerless and without options. For example, in many cases a charge of domestic assault should have been charged as a simple breach of peace. Anger can lead to domestic violence and criminal charges of assault and battery.

Have you been served a restraining order or order for protection? Tina can effectively represent you at a hearing and help you deal with any issues that arise after the hearing. Under Connecticut law, a person who violates a protective order can be convicted of a felony.

Tina vigorously strives for the most favorable outcomes on behalf of every client she represents who has been charged with domestic assault. She is often successful in negotiating diversionary programs such as anger management programs and family violence programs in lieu of prison time or even conviction.

Tina also encourages clients to explain all the details of the case. With this knowledge, Tina can tell clients the likely steps and outcomes along the way.
