About Domestic Violence in Florida

In the state of Florida, domestic violence occurs anytime an individual commits a specific violent crime against a household or family member. Particularly, domestic violence can be committed against a relative by marriage or blood, co-parent of the alleged perpetrator’s child, ex-spouse, or spouse. It can also be committed against an individual who used to cohabitate with the alleged perpetrator or currently cohabitates with them.

Florida law classifies the following crimes as those qualifying as domestic violence:

  • Kidnapping
  • Aggravated stalking
  • Stalking
  • Sexual battery
  • Sexual assault
  • Aggravated battery
  • Battery
  • Aggravated assault
  • Assault

The minimum punishment for a conviction of domestic violence is five days in county jail. You may also face thousands of dollars in fines, probation, community service, and additional jail time or extensive prison time.

  • The Best. Period.

    “When I was first looking to hire an attorney, I made contact with Dunham and Ingram first. They gave me great advice on my phone consultation and encouraged me to shop around and interview several firms and individuals. I went with my gut and the firm that gave me the best feeling and chose to hire Andy Ingram as my attorney. What I soon discovered is that Andy Ingram is amazing. I hired him to represent me in my case and was amazed with his results. Mr. Ingram worked on my case and kept me fully abreast of every development, the strategies for fighting my case and took the time to explain to me what everything meant. He was very mindful of my wallet and made the effort to exercise fiscal responsibility and not just see dollar signs. If you have a criminal case then I would encourage you to seek the guidance and expertise of Mr. Ingram. You will not be sorry that you did, if there is a positive that can come from your situation, he will find it and achieve it.”
