What Is Domestic Violence and What Protection Orders Exist?
Domestic violence includes physical and psychological dimensions. It also manifests as economic violence, sexual violence, and coercive control. Threats, stalking, and repeated harassment are part of the phenomenon. The law allows urgent applications for protection orders. We work to restrict the abuser’s access to the victims.
Types of Orders and Protections We Handle:
- Urgent protection order: prohibition on approaching the home and workplace.
- Protection of children: distancing from the children’s educational institutions.
- Firearms prohibition: orders for temporary or extended confiscation.
- Stalking and threatening harassment: protection in cases involving former partners.
Representing Victims and Defending Against False Complaints
In violence cases, a rapid response is critical. You should approach the police and request an immediate protection order. We assist with medical documentation and with collecting messages and recordings. Our team builds the case from day one and accompanies you before the welfare and police authorities.
Conversely, we also handle cases of false complaints. Protection orders are sometimes used as a tactical tool. We represent clients in proceedings to vacate such orders, exposing contradictions and manipulative use of the legal process and presenting a full evidentiary basis to defend our clients.
The Link Between Violence, Support, and Custody
Violence proceedings directly affect custody and support. The court may limit parenting time in cases of danger and may order supervised visitation.
Where an allegation of violence is purely tactical, we act with determination, connecting the violence file and the custody file strategically. The family law department operates in full synchronization across all proceedings – adjusting arrangements to child safety and examining the financial implications of separation.
