Hotter Weather…Hotter Tempers.

With the coming of summer, temperatures will heat up in the San Jose area.  Unfortunately, in some area households so will tempers.  Domestic violence takes no holiday in California, but summer is a particularly important time of year when it becomes more prevalent.  This state has tried to curb it, but it will never completely disappear.

Just what are some of the charges you or a loved one may be facing?

1.  The use of excessive force.  This is not confined to whom is bigger.
2.  Kidnapping is not limited to youth.  Anyone can be held against their will.
3.  Family violence that traumatizes a minor.
4.  Making a terrorist threat.  Something new, but very real.

Being convicted of domestic violence in California will result in any of a number of sentences.  There are variables, of course, such as any previous record of arrest.  In the San Jose area you have an ally in William Chestnut.  Bill is a four decade plus veteran when it comes to handling California domestic violence defense.  Call him today at (408) 298-6990.

Contractor License Suspension after a Criminal Conviction.

Perhaps you're an electrical contractor or a glazing specialist.  Maybe carpentry or fencing is your area of expertise.  If you're part of the California construction trade - one of the state's largest industries, you need to know your options if you have been convicted of a criminal charge in the Big Bear State.

Not only is your freedom at stake, but so is the contracting career you worked so hard to develop.  The CSLB is the acronym for the Contractors State License Board in California.  They can and will harshly discipline you if you are a convicted criminal.  Is there any recourse?  The answer may be an emphatic YES!

San Jose area criminal defense attorney William Chestnut may be just the man you need to know at a time like this.  He has decades of experience in dealing with the CSLB.  You have rights under the law.  DO NOT take this suspension lying down!  Please immediately contact attorney William Chestnut for a meeting at his 4020 Moorpark Ave. office at (408) 298-6990.
