We regularly help clients obtain Orders of Protection in New York’s Supreme, Family, and Criminal courts. We have the experience both to prosecute and defend clients when issues of domestic violence are involved.
If you are the victim of domestic violence, we work hard to ensure your safety and your children’s safety. Conversely, if you’re the victim of false allegations, those need to be addressed swiftly and deftly. We also represent clients in situations where the allegations of domestic violence against them are provable. In those instances, we work closely with our clients and any outside individuals, such as mental health professionals, to address and remedy the issue and to ensure that the client’s parental rights are preserved.
Our attorneys know that domestic violence is not merely physical. Intimate partner violence takes many forms: our clients often endure emotional, verbal and even financial abuse at the hands of their partners. Knowing the right questions to ask, and recognizing the signs, is what sets our firm apart in this sensitive area.
One of our firm’s greatest assets is Benjamin D. Moore’s background and experience in this sphere. A former domestic violence prosecutor, Ben is recognized in the family and matrimonial legal community as an expert in domestic violence matters and is often called upon by other attorneys to consult in domestic violence cases.
