Protect Yourself from Domestic Abuse
For urgent legal advice on domestic violence, call us on 01389 762266
Domestic violence can take the form of mental as well as physical abuse. It can arise on one occasion only, or can continue over a lengthy period. No matter the form or time involved however, if you have been suffering from domestic violence, it is vitally important that you move as quickly as possible to protect yourself, and to protect any children living with you.
We would suggest that if possible, you should contact the police, who can put you in touch with various support networks. You should also try to speak with any friends or family upon whom you can trust. Thereafter, once you have managed to arrange any short-term measures to protect you, our family solicitors can assist in building on the protection afforded by the police and other groups. For example, we can take your instructions to raise proceedings in Court for orders excluding your spouse or partner from your house, or to ensure that they keep their distance from you and cease any harassment.
Simply arrange an appointment with us today by calling us or by using our discreet contact form, and feel free to take someone with you to our meeting if you feel you need some extra support. We will guide you through your options patiently and sympathetically, and will try to help resolve your problem as quickly as possible.
