A domestic violence conviction can significantly impact a child custody case. This is especially true if the person involved in the domestic violence case is your children’s other parent. In those cases, a domestic violence conviction can result in a reduction or change in your ability to see your children. Altered parental rights may result in a requirement of supervised visits or a temporary suspension of your custody rights. A judge may also order you to complete therapy or anger management classes before your custody rights can be restored.
