Holiday Joy…Holiday Stress.

All too often one accompanies the other.  As families gather together to celebrate the end-of-the-year holidays, familiarity all too often breeds contempt.  We speak of domestic violence.  It is in the news a great deal these days and holiday time may exacerbate the situation.  Do not let your loved ones go down that path!

Some of the components that constitute domestic violence are-

1.  Inflicting trauma on a loved one.
2.  Physical violence…assault.
3.  Kidnapping.  This time of year, kids are often targeted.
4.  Threats…sometimes bordering on terrorism.

All of these emotional tipping points and more could result in the arrest of someone you care about on a domestic violence charge.  In Santa Clara County, San Mateo County, and Alameda County the right choice is to call William Chestnut.  Bill is a domestic violence defense attorney serving our area for over 40 years.  Call attorney Chestnut today at (408) 298-6990.

Help Me…My Kid’s in Trouble!

These are words that no parent ever wants to utter.  It happens every day in this country…a good kid goes astray and is accused of running afoul with the law.  Even worse, a juvenile hangs out with the wrong people in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Suddenly his or her life and the lives of their loved ones are turned upside down.

What constitutes juvenile crime?  These are some offenses specifically related to one's status as a minor, such as truancy; possession and consumption of alcohol; the purchase of tobacco products; and curfew violations.  There is (and should be) a huge difference in how juvenile delinquents and adult criminal offenders are treated.

When your child is accused of doing something outside of the law there is no time for hesitation.  If it occurs in our area, you immediately call Attorney William Chestnut.  He has had four decades of experience as a San Jose, CA juvenile crime defender.  At this point it is merely an accusation.  Do not let it go any further!  Call Bill at (408) 298-6990.
