Injunctions and Domestic Violence

It’s easy to understand the extreme trauma and emotional stress of dealing with an abusive partner, or someone acting in a threatening or violent way towards you. These feelings are only multiplied when children are present within an abusive relationship.

Feeling of helplessness and a sense of being trapped are common in such circumstances, but our team of specialists can help, acting swiftly and decisively on your behalf.

Our Family Law practice has considerable experience and expertise in making applications for injunctions or Prohibited Steps Orders, as well as dealing with wider and more ongoing issues of access and maintenance.

In these circumstances it goes without saying that we also have close links with local support organisations that can be invaluable in providing all the physical and emotional support you may need at times like these.

More often than not, time is of the essence. In these circumstances, you don’t need to make a prior appointment to see us, just call us in confidence as soon as possible on 01423 534500 so that we can take the urgent legal steps to secure you, and your children if necessary, protection from an abusive partner or former partner.
