Domestic Violence Allegations in Aspen: Process + Protection Orders
Domestic violence allegations can move fast and have immediate consequences—especially around no-contact orders, housing, and firearm restrictions.
What happens after a DV-related arrest or charge
Typical early steps may include:
advisement/first appearance
bond conditions (often no-contact)
protection order process
evidence collection and review (reports, recordings, witness statements)
Protection orders and no-contact conditions
These conditions can affect:
family logistics and parenting schedules
shared housing and finances
communication and daily life
A defense plan often includes addressing both:
the criminal case strategy, and
the practical restrictions that disrupt life immediately.

We focus on proof and procedure:
inconsistencies in statements and timelines
context and credibility
physical evidence (or lack of it)
third-party witnesses and recordings
legal issues around arrest decisions and charging
