Get the Legal Protection That You Deserve

Being in a violent situation with a spouse or partner can be terrifying. Your partner may have injured you or threatened violence if you seek help. There is a way out. Florida’s domestic violence injunctions can give you the protection you need as you build a new life for yourself.

Unfortunately, many victims of domestic violence do not seek legal help when they ask the court for an injunction. A poorly written petition can prevent you from receiving the protection you deserve. A New Port Richey family law attorney can help you gain protection from violence within 24 hours.

Under Florida law, domestic violence includes:

  • Assault
  • Battery
  • Sexual assault
  • Kidnapping
  • Stalking
  • Other criminal offenses that result in the injury or death of a family member

You can get protection from a violent partner even if they have not physically harmed you. If the judge believes you are in immediate danger of becoming a victim of domestic violence, they can create a protective order.

A violent partner does not have to run your life. For an appointment about a protective court order, contact Dale L. Bernstein, Chartered Law Office today at (727) 862-4411.

Defense Against False Domestic Violence Accusations

It is unfortunately common for dishonest partners to seek domestic violence protection to gain an advantage in a divorce or have police remove you from the home. A false domestic violence accusation can also impact your ability to visit your children or obtain custody. In these cases, you need a New Port Richey family lawyer to present your side of the story to the courts.

There is too much at stake for you to pursue justice against false accusations alone. Instead, contact the professionals at Dale L. Bernstein, Chartered Law Office. We will fight vigorously for your rights and work to let the truth come to light.
