Will an Injunction Affect My Divorce or Custody Case?

Domestic violence accusations are taken seriously by authorities. If a court believes that you are a danger to your children, your parental rights may be limited. Likewise, if a victim does not take action to protect a child from an abuser, the victim's custody rights could also be at risk. Allegations of domestic violence can also factor into a lot of issues in a divorce, such as alimony, visitation, property distribution, and more.

In some cases, a divorcing spouse may make false accusations to gain leverage in a divorce. We can also represent individuals facing domestic violence accusations and find ways to resolve these accusations.
