Domestic Violence

Richmond Domestic Violence Defense Lawyer

Domestic violence charges are a serious matter for both the victim and the accused. It can affect the lives of those involved long after the situation has passed. If you are a victim of domestic abuse or have been accused of domestic violence, please contact my office for a free initial phone consultation.

I am attorney Eddy Paul Rice, IV, and I have successfully handled domestic violence and spousal abuse cases since 1972. I would truly appreciate the opportunity to put my experience and knowledge to work for you.

Domestic Violence and Divorce

Accusations of spousal or child abuse can have a significant impact on a divorce decree. They can prevent a parent from gaining child custody, and eliminate or place restrictions on visitation. If your spouse physically abused you or your children, I can help obtain a temporary protective order against them — protecting your family while the divorce is pending. Similarly, I can help fight restraining orders if you have been wrongfully accused of violence.

I understand both sides of the issue and can use this knowledge to prepare an effective argument on your behalf. My goal is to protect your rights and interests as much as possible - whether that is securing your safety, attempting to stop a protective order from being issued, or negotiating a favorable custody and visitation schedule.
