Getting Past Excuses and Fear of Retaliation to Take Action
From experience, we realize that your abuser may have many excuses and may even express remorse. Whether the situation is fueled by alcohol or drug abuse or exacerbated by financial problems — both of which are common — it is too risky to trust that domestic violence will stop before tragic consequences result. Many people are victimized by domestic violence every day.
Even abuse in the form of confinement without access to a phone, denial of any financial resources such as a checkbook or constant check-ins at a harassing level may be actionable, and strong legal counsel may be your only dependable way out.
Obtaining Immediate and Longer-Term Protective/Restraining Orders
Attorney Holli Palmer will know your legal options, and you can depend on her to assess your case and advise you on the best action for protecting yourself from further abuse. You are far from alone in the problem you face, but we recognize how difficult it can be to take that first step. We may be able to help you:
- Obtain an immediate ex parté temporary protective order requiring the perpetrator of domestic violence or abuse to leave your house and have no contact with you until the case goes to court
- Follow through, once the abuser has been cited, in obtaining a two-year protective order for you, and in some cases where necessary, for your children as well
