Do not take legal advice from strangers on the internet

Find a lawyer, fast. Get the best one you can, if they have experience in defending men or in domestic violence real or false even better.

Yep... Find a lawyer and a therapist to specializes in domestic abuse and legally certified to testify in court of law.. She/he can help you out. Have weekly sessions.

We are.going through sone of this ourselves.. Reach out to trusted family members as well that tou can confide in. It helps sanity.. Please be aware a trusted member should not be friends with your wife.

If you have money, find a good lawyer. If you don't have money, find money, then find lawyer. Don't take legal advice from r/legaladvice and even less from here.

I'm not american, so not so much I can say on the legal side of things.

1- have you been found guilty of domestic violence, or been charged (accused) of it? Misdemeanor or felony?

2- based on an independent review of the evidence, is there any chance of being found innocent or getting a conviction overturned?

3- for jobs, you can search out if potential employers do background checks. Not all do. Blue collar jobs far easier than white collar.

No matter what the context, the only advice is get a lawyer, they know the law, they work well for your money, and they will be much more respected in the court than you trying to defend yourself every single time.

Record all interactions and kept all texting. Install cam in home and dashcam in your car.

What country are you in? What is the situation? If you are really asking for advise then you need to give more details, plus Reddit is a terrible place to ask for legal advice
