Domestic violence charges are some of the most devastating charges in the Nevada criminal justice system. A domestic violence conviction can prevent you from getting a job or even volunteering.

Nevada domestic violence law defines what counts as a domestic relationship for the purposes of the law. The law also defines what behavior counts as violent behavior in Nevada law.
Under Nevada law, a domestic relationship includes:
The potential penalties for a domestic battery charge in Las Vegas depend on your criminal history. If you have no convictions for domestic battery in the past seven years, the maximum penalties that you face are at least two days and up to six months in jail.
You may also have to perform community service, pay a fine, and attend counseling. If you have a second offense within seven years, the minimum jail time is ten days. When you have a third offense within seven years, you face a Category C felony offense. You must also pay into a state fund for domestic violence programs.
There may be diversionary programs available to first-time offenders. If you choose not to take your case to trial, you may be able to secure the dismissal of your claim through participation in a diversionary program.
If you’re willing to participate in counseling and serve a probation-like period with monitoring, you may be able to win dismissal of your claim without taking your case to trial. Our attorneys for domestic charges in Las Vegas can help you determine if accepting the offer of a deferral program is in your best interest.
