When you face domestic violence or abuse, or you are falsely accused, we know just what to do and how to help.

Understanding Your Rights: Do You Have Grounds for a Domestic Violence Claim?

Do you face domestic violence issues involving:

  • Marital rape?
  • False charges?
  • Verbal or emotional spousal abuse or assault?

In situations involving domestic abuse or violence, we can pursue an immediate protective order or temporary restraining order (TRO) and, when applicable, handle your divorce case. Cynthia Tracy, Attorney at Law, P.C. is skilled at gathering evidence from police, hospitals, and the Texas Department of Family Protective Services (formerly known as Child Protective Services) to build a strong, persuasive case.

Defending Against False Accusations of Domestic Violence

We are also aggressive and skilled at defending against false accusations of domestic abuse. We have seen cases where charges are filed solely to strengthen child custody positions. We do not handle the criminal aspects of these cases, but are available to provide seasoned civil legal services. For more information on our firm and your rights regarding domestic violence, contact our domestic violence lawyers in Houston for a discussion of your case.
