Have you been charged with a domestic violence offence? The most common domestic violence charges are stalking charges or breaching intervention order charges. These are often charged at the same time.

Some general issues in breach intervention order cases are;

Whose version of events is the truth? 
These types of matters are usually private and it often comes down to oath on oath. There is also, commonly, a history of the person with the intervention order making contact with the accused when they should not be.

How did it end like this?
These charges frequently arise out of relationships that have been going well to this point. It is important to explain what has gone wrong to the Judge so they can understand your point of view.
