Domestic Violence Defense

First, you should understand what the term “Domestic Violence” means in the law of Washington.  It describes any offense, and there are many, that occur between a family or household member.  It can also mean any offense between someone that you were once in a dating relationship with or living with under the same roof, such as a roommate, even if this was in the past!

This Domestic Violence term, called DV, can be added to many different offenses. The most common are assault, malicious mischief, no-contact orders, and harassment. By the way, an assault is very easy to commit too. It is any unwanted touching of another without their consent. Malicious mischief is a fancy term for property damage. And, it can be the damage of property that is owned between a husband and wife, which is nearly everything since this a community property state. So, even though the object might have once been a gift if is often considered community property. Quite a problem.

Harassment is simply threats. And, these can be via face-to-face, email, voice mail, just as violations of No-Contact or Protection Orders.
