Domestic Violence Isn't Always Visible
If you are experiencing harassment or domestic violence, you need to seek help urgently.
Our domestic assault lawyers can give you advice about making an application to court for protection. We know these steps are often taken in very difficult circumstances, and our specialists have helped many clients through these stages. It is important to feel supported during this time. We are responsive in a crisis and can take immediate action.
Court orders can be made without the other person being informed of your application until the court order has been made and served on them. These are called Temporary Protection Orders which prohibit the other person from using or threatening violence, or being abusive, harassing or pestering you.
If you are experiencing domestic violence or someone has lodged a protecting order against you, do not waste time, please urgently seek legal advice.
