PROTECTION FROM ABUSE (PFA)


PFAs are serious and can often lead to an individual feeling like they lost before they get started. A temporary PFA is issued based on the court hearing one side of the story with absolutely no resistance or input from the other. They often come as a surprise to the party against whom they are issued. A PFA can cause eviction, a change to custody arrangements, and carry a number of other serious consequences. Not only is a PFA hugely problematic for the immediate future, it can have prolonged ramifications on divorce and custody proceedings.

We act with urgency, precision, and an unwavering commitment to your legal interests.
