The are definitely some loose ends in the Tiger Woods incident that happened over the Thanksgiving break.  It looks like a little more than a simple fender bender and there could be some domestic issues in play.  Was it domestic violence?  Did Tiger’s wife scratch his face?  Was he knocked out for several minutes and if so, how?  These are all questions that lawyers like the Los Angeles Domestic Violence Attorney, Debra White, get all the time.  It is almost always a he said/she said situation in which nobody comes out looking good.  Most people do not have to deal with the flash bulbs and constant media attention that will follow Tiger around for days.  But, most ordinary people do need to “lawyer up” and defend themselves.

Domestic abuse is a serious charge and it is not always easy to tell who is in the wrong.  That is exactly why it is important to hire an attorney with expertise in the area.  Attorneys, like doctors, normally have specialties.  Finding one that deals with your type of situation all the time is key to your representation.  You wouldn’t go to an orthopedic doctor to look at your heart, so don’t call just any lawyer if you’re involved with domestic abuse.
