Domestic Violence and Domestic Disputes

Behind closed doors, many families face the very difficult and emotionally complex situation of domestic violence. Whether you are a victim of domestic violence seeking legal support to protect your family or you are an accused abuser needing legal defense, it is critical to know your rights and the potential implications of a domestic violence allegation in both criminal and civil cases. At Slater & Zurz, LLP, we protect the rights of our clients in domestic abuse controversies related to custody, restraining orders, orders for protection and divorce.

Domestic abuse cases require immediate attention to protect your security and your rights. When confronting an abuser or defending an allegation, work with a law firm you can trust to get results.

Victims' rights advocacy in domestic disputes

If you are a victim of domestic violence, you do not have to battle your abuser alone. With experienced advocacy and support you can confront your abuser while protecting your legal rights. Our firm is experienced in representing the victims of abuse and their children in domestic disputes cases and can help you seek an order of protection, restraining order, or protect your rights and family at the time of divorce.

Representation for Alleged Abusers

If you have been accused of domestic violence, spousal abuse or child abuse, it is important to take legal action as soon as possible to protect your rights and interests. An allegation could result in a restraining order or order of protection that prevents you from entering the home. It could also have future consequences for your rights to custody.
