Illinois, Domestic Violence Defense Lawyer Tailors Each Case to the Needs of the Client

Domestic violence is a criminal charge loaded with emotions and with consequences that can affect an entire family. Domestic violence defense lawyer Vincent F. Cornelius knows that and keeps that in mind throughout his representation of a client.

Mr. Cornelius understands that because domestic issues are so emotionally charged, people are inclined to immediately conclude that a defendant is guilty, even though he or she has not been convicted in a court of law, and no evidence of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt has been presented.

Therefore, in every domestic violence case, Mr. Cornelius works to quell the initial emotions with a conciliatory approach. A unique characteristic of the law firm is the special concern for:

• Protecting the client's rights
• Minimizing the impact on a criminal record
• Tailoring the defense to the facts, the circumstances and to the individual client
• Considering the police statements, prosecutor and judge involved in the case
