In the video: Attorneys Merav and Golan Aharon on the importance of a criminal attorney in cases of domestic violence/Editor: Gilad Man Mannheim
Domestic violence cases are generally considered complicated, which is the main reason why you should get a criminal lawyer involved.
What are the advantages of such a move?
Attorney and Notary Merav Aharon, who deals with family and inheritance law, and Attorney Golan Aharon, who deals with criminal law and specializes in offenses within the family, explain in detail.
What criteria indicate that a criminal lawyer should be attached to a case in the family field?
"When there is a fear of the start of criminal proceedings in a family case, this is the place to contact a criminal lawyer who specializes in offenses within the family", noted Attorney Aharon Golan.
"When a party finds itself called to a family investigation, it is mandatory to consult with a criminal attorney who specializes in offenses within the family."
Attorney Merav Aharon added: "A client came to me. I sat with her and went over the details of the case on a family matter. During a conversation between us I discovered that her husband had been raped her, every day. It was a woman who suffers from violence but is afraid to go to the police. I turned to attorney Golan Aharon who helped me accompany her to complete justice."
What is the importance of the involvement of a criminal attorney in cases of domestic violence?
Attorney Golan Aharon said: "I will give an example of a case I managed.
I was contacted by a guy who was arrested after trying to strangle his wife.
In the last extension of his detention, I asked the judge to take into account the fact that they have children together, and to allow the man to see his children.
The goal is for the man to have rights to see his children."
"This can be very helpful in a custody case," adds attorney Merav Aharon.
"Attorney Golan actually prevented in his action from trying to examine the father's dangerousness in this case."

What are the advantages of a criminal attorney and a family attorney working together?
Attorney Merav Aharon: "When there is a criminal case, it is important to have a criminal attorney who understands the family field, because then he can lead the case and provide added value. I can give an example of a case where we built a strategy to reach the best result."
Attorney Golan Aharon: "As soon as I receive a case that has already been handled in the past, we try to make corrections to prove or show other things.
For example, a mother who is claimed to be dangerous to children, but in reality is not dangerous to her children."
What tips would you give to clients who are considering whether to add a criminal attorney to domestic violence cases?
"As soon as there is a sign of violence in the family," says attorney Merav Aharon. "You should contact a criminal attorney who specializes in the family field to hear, consult and get a strategy. This field is of great importance because there are specific offenses that are attributed to the family field."
Attorney Golan Aharon added: "Offenses in the family area are also excluded by law and should be treated as such."
