Get out of Jail for Domestic Violence in Columbus Ohio

Getting arrested for Domestic Violence (DV) in Columbus is a serious issue because it involves family or household members of a home.

Domestic Violence in Ohio can be a felony or a misdemeanor. The degree of seriousness depends on the circumstances, the injury caused, and whether the offender has prior convictions for domestic violence.

Misdemeanor Domestic Violence

A 1st degree misdemeanor usually involves harming another person. If a defendant has prior convictions for domestic violence or if the victim was pregnant, this could result in a 3rd, 4th or 5th degree felony.

A domestic violence charge that involves threatening another person is a 4th degree misdemeanor. Regardless of the degree, you will need a Misdemeanor Bail Bond.
