Shreveport Domestic Abuse Defense Lawyers Who Get to Work Fast

Across Northwest Louisiana and Beyond

Hall Law Firm

Accused of Domestic Violence? Your Freedom, Rights, and Reputation Are at Stake.

We defend people—not just charges—with urgency, strategy, and zero judgment.

A domestic abuse accusation is serious—and so are the consequences. You may be facing jail time, a no-contact order, or losing access to your children. Even if the situation was misunderstood or exaggerated, once law enforcement gets involved, you’re in a legal fight.



At Hall Law Firm, we represent individuals across Shreveport, Bossier City, and Northwest Louisiana who’ve been arrested or accused of domestic violence. We know how these cases unfold—and how quickly your life can unravel if you don’t fight back.


Our job is to protect your rights, your freedom, and your future. And we don’t waste time doing it.


We Handle a Full Range of Domestic Abuse Charges in Northwest Louisiana

Domestic doesn’t mean minor. These are often felony-level cases with lifelong consequences.


We defend clients charged with:


  • Domestic abuse battery (misdemeanor or felony)
  • Aggravated battery or assault involving a family member or partner
  • Violation of protective orders or no-contact orders
  • Strangulation-related charges
  • Child endangerment tied to domestic incidents
  • Stalking, harassment, or threats
  • False accusations made during custody disputes
  • Repeat domestic violence offenses with enhanced penalties

Domestic charges are emotional, high-stakes, and sometimes one-sided. We know how to challenge biased reports, unreliable witnesses, and rushed arrests.

You’re Innocent Until Proven Guilty—But the System Doesn’t Always Act That Way

We’ll make sure your side of the story is heard—and that your rights are respected.

In Louisiana, even a verbal argument can turn into an arrest if someone calls the police. Once that happens, you could be:


  • Forced to leave your home
  • Barred from seeing your children
  • Held without bail
  • Subject to a permanent criminal record
  • Facing felony charges and years in prison

But here’s the truth: not every accusation is true, and not every arrest leads to conviction. We investigate fast, push for dismissal when warranted, and fight aggressively in court when the DA refuses to back down.

Domestic Abuse Defense FAQs


  • Do I have to leave my home if arrested?

    Often, yes. A protective or restraining order may require you to move out—even if you pay the bills. We can request a hearing to challenge it.

  • What if the alleged victim doesn’t want to press charges?

    The state can still prosecute, even without their cooperation. We’ll use their lack of support as leverage, but it doesn’t guarantee dismissal.

  • Can a domestic charge be expunged?

    Possibly—if the case is dismissed or reduced. We’ll help you understand when and how expungement is available in Louisiana.

  • What if I was defending myself?

    Self-defense is a valid legal strategy, especially when both parties were involved. We gather all evidence—texts, photos, 911 calls—to make your case.

  • How serious is a felony domestic abuse charge?

    Very. You could face years in prison, loss of gun rights, and permanent barriers to housing or employment. Call a lawyer immediately.
