Domestic violence charges can arise from a wide range of situations, many of which involve misunderstandings, false allegations, or disputes that escalated in the heat of the moment.
Many domestic violence cases rely on one person’s word against another’s, which makes it crucial to have an experienced defense attorney who can challenge weak evidence, expose false claims, and ensure that your side of the story is heard. At the Law Offices of Amber Bellante, we fight to win, whether through obtaining a dismissal, aggressively defending your case at trial, negotiating or getting charges dropped or reduced.
California has some of the toughest gun laws in the country, and a firearm-related charge can carry serious consequences. Even law-abiding gun owners can find themselves facing criminal charges due to misunderstandings, technical violations, or aggressive enforcement of the law.
Gun charges can result in felony convictions, loss of firearm rights, and significant prison time. However, many cases involve illegal searches, wrongful arrests, or lack of evidence, etc., which can provide us with a defense. At the Law Offices of Amber Bellante, we will aggressively fight your gun charges and seek to have them dismissed or reduced whenever possible.
If you have successfully complied with the terms of your probation, you may be eligible to have your probation terminated early.
At the Law Offices of Amber Bellante, we will assess your eligibility and file a motion to terminate your probation early, presenting a strong case to the court based on your compliance, rehabilitation, and good conduct.
Felony charges are the most serious criminal offenses and carry long-term consequences that can impact every aspect of your life. In California, felonies can include crimes such as violent offenses, drug trafficking, serious theft, fraud, and sex crimes.
A strong defense is crucial in felony cases, as prosecutors are often aggressive in seeking maximum penalties. Our firm works to challenge evidence, negotiate plea deals, or fight for case dismissal when possible. We understand the stakes and will fight relentlessly to protect your rights.
Although misdemeanors carry lighter sentences than felonies, they can still result in jail time, classes, fines, and probation. Common misdemeanor offenses in California include:
Even a misdemeanor conviction can have lasting consequences on employment, housing, and professional licensing. At the Law Offices of Amber Bellante, we fight to keep misdemeanors off your record, aiming for case dismissals, reduced charges, or diversion programs that allow you to avoid conviction altogether.
