Overlapping Cases Require A Lawyer Who Understands Both Sides

Oftentimes, a domestic violence case overlaps with a family law dispute. Couples may be separating because of threatening or violent behavior in the home, or in other cases, one party may use claims of domestic abuse as leverage to achieve a more favorable outcome when seeking child custody or marital assets.

Domestic violence is also not exclusive to married couples or families. If a live-in boyfriend, girlfriend or simply a friend residing in the home intimidates or otherwise compromises the safety of others in the home, it’s important to take legal action.

More than just physical violence, domestic abuse can also include:

  • Making threats over the phone, in person, via email or other media
  • Stalking
  • Harassment
  • Intimidation
  • Sexual abuse
  • Mental as well as physical abuse

Whether helping to secure an order for protection or defending your rights against a restraining order, Mr. Garner will clearly explain what you are up against and the potential effects of pursuing a protective order, and help outline a strategy for you to move forward.
