DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Law Office of Shawn Seliger handles domestic violence issues in Lee, Collier, Charlotte and DeSoto Counties

Domestic violence is still often hidden in our society today. It can start out as mental, physical, or verbal abuse and escalate into real violence. In divorce matters, tensions can get out of hand and result in harassment, threats, and even stalking.

Whether it's against you or your child — and truthful or not — domestic violence needs to be taken seriously. All too often, it's excused, forgiven, or a victim feels partially responsible in some way. Nonsense! It's a potential crime against another human being. It hurts... and it could be fatal next time.

If you, your child, or someone you know is the victim of domestic violence, call the police and get help as soon as possible. You will also need a Florida domestic violence attorney to represent and help protect you from your assailant with a restraining order. A court Injunction enforces space between you and your assailant at home, work and school and may have criminal consequences if it is violated.

Whether you have been the victim of domestic violence or are the accused, we can help you get the help you need and protect your rights.
