John,
I respectfully address you since I feel like I have known you for a while.

John,
Thank you for all your help with my case. I never could have muddled through all the “legalese” without your help and advice. While we didn’t make our goal, we did make a pretty good deal, and I am satisfied with the outcome.

Attorney John L. Mendez answers your family violence questions

I just want to get my life back to normal. Should I plead guilty?

Whatever you do, do not plead guilty until you talk to me.
If this is your first offense, you could face up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine if convicted of family violence.

What would a conviction affect?

A conviction could impact your ability to see your children and to contest a divorce. If you are not a U.S. citizen, you could risk deportation and a lifetime away from those you love.
