Domestic Violence Cases / Protection From Abuse Cases (PFAs) / Child Abuse

Domestic Violence Defense Attorney in Wilmington, Delaware

Sometimes, the first time that a man or woman ever learns about a PFA is when they face criminal charges for abusing a loved one. In Delaware, if a man is charged with assaulting his wife, he will not only end up with a criminal charge, he will usually end up on the receiving end of a Protection From Abuse Petition (PFA). This happens automatically even before the domestic violence case is tried. You can also lose your right to enter into your own home or visit your own children, or incur financial obligations as the result of a PFA order.

Wilmington, Delaware, lawyer Jerome M. Capone has more than 30 years' experience defending clients against charges of domestic violence and standing by their side throughout this difficult time.

Child Abuse Cases

Any person charged with a crime against a child will not only face criminal punishment, but also placement on the Child Abuse Registry. If you are placed on the Child Abuse Registry, it can affect your right to a livelihood. You cannot work in any professions that are involved with children, such as teaching, nursing, daycare, driving a school bus and more. The outcome of these cases is tied closely to a person's ability to earn a living.
