Order of Protection
Protecting Yourself and Your Family from Abuse
There is no excuse for abuse. This includes physical, emotional, psychological and financial abuse. If you and/or your children, are experiencing abuse from any family member, we can help.
New York Family Courts provide relief from abuse from any family member, including intimate partners not legally married. Obtaining an order of protection is achieved by filing a “Family Offense Petition”. Undoubtedly, taking that first step may be the most frightening thing anyone can do. However, you are not alone.
