Domestic abuse,  can be defined as a pattern of behavior in any relationship used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Abuse can be physical, emotional, economic, sexual or psychological. This includes any behaviors or cumulative acts that might intimidate or frighten their partner. Domestic abuse can happen to anyone regardless of gender or age. Domestic violence affects people of all backgrounds 

If your safety is an immediate concern you should find a safe place for you (and your children) to stay immediately. Getting you and  your family out of danger is the priority.  Here are some tips for leaving an abusive relationship.

As an experienced family law specialist in Los Angeles I can effectively and efficiently help you navigate your domestic abuse issues:

• I can counsel you on your options. The most common approach is to seek a restraining order against the abuser. If he / she violates it, the client can call the police to arrest the perpetrator.
• I can help expediently help you obtain a restraining order from the court. This can happen on an emergency basis and, in some cases, without notifying the perpetrator. The order may be temporary or permanent depending on the situation.
• If the perpetrator is someone with whom my client is involved in a custody dispute, I can present evidence to the court that will help demonstrate why you should be awarded custody.
