St.Petersburg Domestic Violence Attorney

At The Denson Firm, our St. Petersburg domestic violence lawyer provides criminal defense for people facing domestic violence or spousal abuse charges in courts in the St. Petersburg / Tampa Bay area.

Many times, a domestic violence charge is made during a difficult divorce. Sometimes the charge is a lie, meant to get a husband out of the house so a wife can gain the upper hand in a divorce and child custody case. Sometimes the allegation is true, and a spouse, boyfriend, or girlfriend loses control during a difficult situation.

Domestic abuse situations are complex. The police may have only one part of the picture. Whatever your situation is, you deserve to be heard, to understand the charges and the consequences, and to have your rights defended in court.

If you have been arrested for domestic assault, contact a Florida domestic violence lawyer at The Denson Firm.

For information about the benefits of retaining our firm to assist with sealing or expunging your criminal record, please visit our Firm Overview.

Phones Answered 24-Hours a Day. Please call for a free initial confidential consultation with an experienced Florida expungement lawyer. We return all calls promptly.

Testimonials

  • Bruce was on task every step of the way. From the very beginning, he was able to stand out from other lawyers by communicating my options clearly and with certainty. He then executed everything that was discussed successfully. In my case, I was charged with a 2nd degree felony. Bruce was able to lower it to a 3rd degree, give me a withhold of adjudication, and keep me to 16 months of probation–which I did in 8 for good conduct…

  • Mr. Denson took my case literally a handful of days before my case was to be heard in court. He did a great job and was very thorough. He even followed up to ensure the court updated their records to note my ticket was dismissed. Great demeanor and very easy to work with.

  • Mr. Denson and his assistant Betty are top notch. Both of them had great professional yet personal demeanors and were easy to work with. Mr. Denson did a great job of handling my case. He saw it all the way through, even ensuring that the court updated their records and annotated my ticket as dismissed. I would definitely hire him again, but hoping I don’t need to.

Domestic Violence Injunctions and Divorce Cases

If your spouse has gotten a restraining order or injunction against you, you need a Florida domestic violence lawyer to quickly get your defense in order. The first order of no contact is only a temporary injunction. You have only one to two weeks to build a defense, so it is important to hire an attorney as soon as possible.

St. Petersburg attorney Bruce Denson works in cooperation with many divorce lawyers in the area to defend clients at an injunction hearing or a criminal proceeding while ensuring that the simple assault or assault and battery case has a limited effect on the family law case.

Our Florida domestic violence lawyer immediately begins to evaluate the allegations against you and prepare a strategy to challenge and refute those allegations in court.
