re: Domestic Violence

Domestic violence cases are among the most urgent and emotionally charged matters in family law. Whether you are seeking protection from abuse or defending yourself against an accusation, we are here to provide immediate, compassionate, and effective legal support.

What Is Considered Domestic Violence in Florida?

Under Florida law, domestic violence includes a wide range of behaviors between people who share a family or household relationship, including:

Physical assault or battery
Stalking or harassment
Sexual assault
Threats of harm
Destruction of property
Emotional or psychological abuse (in some cases)

These cases often arise between spouses, former partners, co-parents, family members, or individuals living in the same home.

Seeking Protection: Injunctions for Protection (Restraining Orders)

If you are in fear for your safety or the safety of your children, you may be eligible to file for an Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence.

We help you:

File an emergency petition quickly and correctly
Present evidence to support your request
Represent you at the court hearing for a final injunction
Ensure the injunction includes provisions for child custody, timesharing, and exclusive use of the home (when appropriate)

These injunctions can provide immediate relief and legal protection—including no-contact orders, removal of the abuser from the home, and temporary custody or support orders.

Defending Against Domestic Violence Accusations

Being accused of domestic violence can have serious consequences—personally, legally, and professionally. A finding of domestic violence can affect:

Child custody and timesharing
Your ability to possess firearms
Your criminal record
Your immigration status
Your reputation and livelihood

If you’ve been served with an injunction or accused of abuse, we will fight to ensure your side of the story is heard and your rights are protected. We help clients respond promptly, prepare for court hearings, and defend against false or exaggerated claims.

Fast Action. Strong Advocacy. Real Protection.

Domestic violence cases move fast, and the consequences can be life-changing. Whether you need protection or a strong defense, we offer immediate, nonjudgmental support and aggressive legal representation.

If you or your children are in danger—or if you’ve been accused—don’t wait.
