Family Law Attorney in Pinellas County
Florida Domestic Violence Law
Domestic violence happens to people in all walks of life: male or female, rich or not, educated or not, it happens. And when it happens, the most important thing is to get it stopped - before someone suffers a serious injury or is killed.
If you have been a victim of domestic violence or you believe that you are in imminent danger of becoming a victim, get to a safe place and then call a family law attorney in Pinellas County for help. If you have no where else to go, you can go to the Spring Shelter in Hillsborough County, or to CASA in Pinellas County.
What I Do To Protect My Client
First, we design a safety plan for you that will consider your specific situation along with current family laws in Florida.
I then will pursue a Temporary Injunction for Protection from Domestic Violence. These temporary injunctions can be made permanent after a hearing, but the initial injunction can be obtained without a hearing at all.
Obtaining this injunction allows us to secure your safety and the safety of your children in your home, and to protect you as much as we can by giving you the ability to have your spouse arrested for just coming near you.
Once you are safe, our extensive knowledge of the various aspects of family law will help to protect you in other ways, including protecting your money and assets.
In some cases, we can obtain an Emergency Temporary Injunction for you on the same day that you call me. It is important for you to remember that you do not have to wait until you have been harmed to get help.
I offer Consultations for domestic violence cases in Pinellas County and provide a wealth of knowledge, information and videos throughout the website pertaining to current family law in Florida.
If you are afraid of your spouse, contact me immediately and we will talk about what we can do to keep you safe.
