Allentown and Easton, Pennsylvania, Domestic Violence Lawyers
Domestic violence is taken very seriously by the Pennsylvania courts. Victims of domestic violence can take legal action to immediately stop the family abuse and violence through a protection from abuse (PFA) order. The person filing the order must prove that he or she is in imminent danger of abuse or has been threatened with abuse. Once the order takes effect, the abuser can be evicted from your home and is not allowed to come within a certain distance of you or make any contact with you for up to three years.
As family law lawyers, we understand the impact that domestic abuse charges can have on a divorce or child custody case. While a PFA order is designed to protect those who are in imminent danger of abuse, unfortunately, it also can be used as a tool to get an upper hand in a divorce.
If you have been falsely accused of domestic violence or served with a PFA order, you could be facing serious long-term implications. Not only could you lose custody of your children, you could also be forced out of your home. Our Allentown domestic abuse lawyers will inform you of your rights and options. If needed, we will vigorously advocate for your rights in the family law courts.
If you have been the victim of domestic violence or you have been accused of domestic violence, you need an experienced lawyer on your side. Contact us or call 610-628-9037 to schedule a consultation with one of our attorneys.
