Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

Background Checking

Can I deny employment based on a criminal background involving domestic violence? Since our service is so personal, and our clients rely on us to be trustworthy and dependable, it is important that we do not employ people with firey tempers. Would this particular offense be cause enough to disqualify the candidate?
