Texas Family Violence Defense Lawyer

When One Allegation Can Change Everything

An accusation of family violence can alter the course of your life within hours.

You may be removed from your home, prohibited from seeing your children, served with a protective order, or arrested before anyone has taken the time to understand what actually happened. Your employer may place you on leave, your professional license may be jeopardized,and your reputation may suffer long before your case ever reaches a courtroom.

Whether the allegation involves a spouse, dating partner, former partner, family member, or someone living in your household, the consequences can extend far beyond the criminal justice system.

At the Law Office of Lisa Greenberg, PLLC, we understand that these cases are often emotionally charged and rarely tell the whole story. We develop strategic, individualized defenses designed to protect not only your freedom, but also your family, your career, and the reputation you have worked so hard to build.

Family Violence Cases We Handle

Experience Matters

Before dedicating her practice to criminal defense, Lisa Greenberg served as a Family Violence Prosecutor.

That experience provides a unique perspective into how family violence cases are investigated, evaluated, and prosecuted.

Having worked on the prosecution’s side, Lisa understands:

  • how officers investigate domestic disturbance calls

  • how prosecutors decide whether to file charges

  • what evidence prosecutors rely upon

  • where investigations often fall short

  • how credibility is evaluated

  • what facts can change the direction of a case

Today, she uses that experience to defend individuals accused of family violence throughout Texas. She understands that many domestic disputes occur during highly emotional moments. Officers often have only minutes to make difficult decisions, frequently based on conflicting statements and incomplete information. Her goal is to uncover the complete story—not simply accept the version reflected in a police report.

  • Assault Family Violence

  • Assault Causing Bodily Injury
