If there is an allegation of family abuse or violence, such information is required to be disclosed within family law matters.
Instances of family law violence and abuse are now much more broadly defined, and may extend to unreasonably denying a family member financial autonomy, and unreasonably withholding financial support.
Unfortunately, at the time of separation, when emotions are running high, allegations of family abuse or violence are often made.
We can assist you in the preparation of an Application for a Protection Order, if so required.
We can also assist you if you are named as the Respondent to an Application for a Protection Order, and provide you with advice regarding your ability to Consent (Without Admissions) to the making of such an order, or Contest the order, and negotiate the terms of such an order.
