Unfortunately, the number of people suffering from domestic violence is on the rise. According to research, 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men will experience domestic violence in their lifetime.
Seeking help is a very brave decision that takes courage. When you are ready to seek help, we can help you. There are many legal options that are available to you.
It may be necessary to obtain an urgent Non-Molestation Order from the Court to provide immediate protection. If you do not wish to take this action we can write a letter to the perpetrator to ask that their behaviour stop. If it does not stop, you still have the option to apply to the Court.
If you are financially eligible, Legal Aid is available for the Court Application and the letter.
It is important to remember that domestic violence is never okay and you are not alone.
