What started as a shouting match can end up with you spending the night in jail and facing harsh, permanent consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people do not realize the far-reaching implications of a domestic violence case. After an arrest, you must leave your home and have no contact with the other party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Penalties in Domestic Violence Cases<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If convicted of a domestic violence-related charge, in addition to serving your sentence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You won&#8217;t be able to own a firearm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You may lose your right to custody of or unsupervised visitation with your children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You may find it very difficult to get a job or a place to live<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You will lose your professional license if you are a doctor, dentist, accountant or other licensed professional<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At MyPhillyLawyer, we recognize that domestic violence is a true problem in our society.
