Non-Molestation and Occupation Orders
Domestic violence, also called domestic abuse, is an issue that unfortunately affects far more people than you might imagine, but you do not need to suffer in silence.
Many people believe domestic abuse is only physical violence against a person but abuse can be emotional, sexual, verbal and controlling and coercive behaviour. Additionally it can include threatening and degrading behaviour and financial control.
This behaviour can arise in couple relationships or between family members. It can happen on one occasion or on a series of occasions.
It is important to note that due to the impact of coronavirus and being confined to our homes, many of us are isolated from supportive family, friends or organisations.
Additionally, some of us at home are experiencing an increase in abusive behaviour and/or violence. Domestic abuse has greatly increased since lockdown with an increase in calls and online requests for help.
Protect yourself from Domestic Abuse
For years, GT Stewart has been helping wives, husbands, partners and children to escape their abusers, regain their lives, protect themselves and their children.
We can help by obtaining Orders to protect you from any form of abuse, verbal or physical, as well as Orders so that the abuser has to leave the shared/family home.
