Protection from Domestic Violence

It is crucial that you protect yourself and your children from physical, verbal, and emotional abuse. You are taking a courageous step toward a brighter future. I can talk to you about the issues of domestic violence as they relate to your marriage or non-marital relationship.

There are two actions you can take to protect yourself from further abuse: restraining orders and protective orders. Restraining orders prevent abusers from engaging in harmful actions. These harmful actions can include access to your bank accounts, selling your belongings, and harassing you. Protective orders protect you from violence and other forms of physical harm.

False Accusations of Domestic Violence

If you are falsely accused of committing domestic violence, you must challenge that accusation. An unchallenged accusation can have a major impact on the court's decisions regarding child custody and visitation. False allegations of abuse can prevent you from seeing your children and can damage your reputation.
