If i get convicted for dv misdemeanor

[Badchoice94]

Hey guys,

 

Trying to prepare for the worst, can I stay in usa on h1b  if I get convicted for misdemeanor assault and battery on a family & household member?

I might have to go to trial on this, I haven't made any statements to the police, no injuries, no 911 call except the victim might exaggerate when testifies at Trial.

We have a custody battle going on and charge is Assault and battery on family member 265.13 M and Reckless endagerment of child 265.13L( in MASS)

I am really worried about getting deported and not being able to see my son forever.

Victim wants me out of the child's life and she might cooperate with the DA's office and completely exaggerate her version of events. 

My question is it possible to stay in USA on h1b and naturalize later with a DV conviction and do I get automatically deported once I get conviction after jury trial?

DV is a very serious issue. Instead of trying to find excuses seek help for your issues.

Talk to Immigration and criminal attorney (Both are required). See a doctor to treat for  anti depression/anxiety medication. See a therapist/counsellor  for getting mental balance.

I did consult with Legal counsel and I have hired the best I can afford. I am hopeful to win this if it goes to trail as it is extremely hard to lie when you get cross examined and child's name was involved to gain upper hand in custody. But I would like to be prepared for the worst.
