Domestic Violence Law in Austin, Texas

Understanding Domestic Violence Charges in Texas

In Texas, domestic violence laws are broad and cover various offenses involving alleged harm or threats between individuals in certain relationships.

Under Texas Penal Code § 22.01, domestic violence charges can be filed against individuals accused of committing an act of violence against:

A spouse or ex-spouse.
A current or former dating partner.
A family member by blood or marriage.
A household member (including roommates).
A co-parent of a child.

Even minor incidents or misunderstandings can lead to serious criminal charges. Texas law enforcement agencies are required to arrest if they believe violence has occurred, even if the alleged victim does not want to press charges. This makes it critical to have a strong legal defense immediately after an arrest or accusation. We can help.

Contact our skilled Austin domestic violence defense attorneys today to learn how.

What are the Different Types of Domestic Violence Charges in Texas?

Texas categorizes domestic violence into three primary offenses, each carrying severe penalties depending on the circumstances:

Domestic Assault (Misdemeanor or Felony)

Domestic assault occurs when a person:

Intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causes bodily injury to a family or household member.
Threatens imminent bodily harm.
Engages in offensive or provocative physical contact.

If prior convictions exist, penalties can range from a Class A misdemeanor (up to 1 year in jail and a $4,000 fine) to a third-degree felony (2 to 10 years in prison).

Aggravated Domestic Assault (Felony)

If serious bodily injury occurs or a deadly weapon is used in the alleged assault, the charge escalates to aggravated domestic assault, a second-degree felony punishable by 2 to 20 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine.

Continuous Family Violence (Felony)

If an individual is accused of committing two or more domestic violence offenses within 12 months, they may be charged with Continuous Family Violence, a third-degree felony. Prior convictions can enhance penalties to life-altering consequences.

If you face these charges, you need aggressive legal defense immediately. Contact Peek Law Group at (512) 474-4445 to discuss your options.

Defending Against Domestic Violence Charges in Texas

A domestic violence conviction can have permanent consequences, including a criminal record, loss of gun rights, restraining orders, and child custody disputes. At Peek Law Group, our skilled Austin domestic violence defense attorneys aggressively challenge the prosecution’s case and pursue reduced or dismissed charges.

Common defense strategies include:

Self-Defense: Demonstrating that you acted reasonably or protected another person from harm.
False Allegations: Proving that the accusations are exaggerated, motivated by revenge, or fabricated.
Lack of Evidence: Challenging inconsistent witness statements, unreliable testimony, and insufficient physical evidence.
Lack of Intent: Showing that the alleged act was accidental or unintentional, which does not meet the legal standard for a conviction.

Each case is unique, and our Austin domestic violence defense attorneys will carefully analyze every aspect of your case to build the most vigorous possible defense.

Can An Alleged Victim Drop Domestic Violence in Texas?

In Texas, an alleged victim cannot unilaterally drop domestic violence charges. Once law enforcement is involved and an arrest is made, the case is in the hands of the state prosecutor.

Why Can’t the Alleged Victim Drop the Charges?

State Control Over Prosecution – Domestic violence cases are considered crimes against the state, not just private disputes. The district attorney (DA) decides whether to proceed with or dismiss the case.
Mandatory Arrest and No-Drop Policies – Texas has aggressive prosecution policies to prevent coercion or intimidation that might lead an alleged victim to withdraw.
Victim Recantation Doesn’t Automatically Dismiss the Case – Even if the alleged victim refuses to testify or changes their statement, prosecutors can still move forward with other evidence.

What Should Someone Accused of Domestic Violence Do?

Hire a Criminal Defense Attorney – An experienced lawyer can work to negotiate with the DA, challenge the evidence, or seek a case dismissal.
Avoid Contact with the Alleged Victim – Violating protective orders can worsen the situation.
Prepare for Court – Even if the alleged victim wants the case dropped, the state may still prosecute.

If you’ve been accused of domestic violence in Texas, you need to act quickly to protect your rights and your future. Hire an experienced criminal defense attorney who can negotiate with the prosecutor, challenge the evidence, and work toward a case dismissal.

Avoid contact with the alleged victim, as violating protective orders can worsen your situation. Be prepared for court, even if the alleged victim wants to drop the charges—prosecutors may still pursue the case. Don’t face this alone—contact our skilled Austin domestic violence defense attorney today to start building your defense.

What Happens If You Are Arrested for Domestic Violence in Texas?

If you are arrested for domestic violence in Austin, it is essential to understand what happens next and how to protect your rights.

The legal process after an arrest includes:

Booking & Bail: After your arrest, you will be taken into custody and booked, and you may need to post bail for release.
Protective Orders: A temporary restraining order may be issued against you, restricting contact with the alleged victim. Violating this order can result in additional criminal charges.
Court Appearances: You must attend multiple court hearings, where our attorneys will fight to dismiss charges, negotiate plea deals, or take the case to trial.
Potential Penalties: If convicted, you could face jail time, probation, fines, mandatory counseling, and a permanent criminal record.

Do not navigate this process alone. The earlier we intervene, the better the chances of reducing or dismissing your charges. Call (512) 474-4445 today to get started on your defense.
