Las Vegas Visitors and Domestic Violence

Many visitors are arrested for domestic violence while on vacation in Las Vegas. Most of these cases occurred in public (the Strip, downtown, in a hotel, casino, etc.) where there may be a videotapes of the incident and/or witnesses who will testify against you.

A domestic violence conviction carries very serious penalties, including a 2 day mandatory minimum jail sentence. If you did not serve 2 days in jail when you were arrested, you could be ordered to return to Las Vegas to serve an additional day or longer in jail. Further, it will be the end of a career for anyone who is required to carry a firearm for their employment.
