Attorneys Representing Victims of Domestic Violence
No one deserves to be abused physically, emotionally or sexually by a family member or other close personal relation. If you have been a victim of domestic violence or you believe you may become a victim of future violence, you have options. By filing for a domestic violence injunction with the court, you may be able to receive the protection you need to shield yourself and your family from domestic violence.
At the Baird Law Group in Tampa, Florida, we understand the fear and pain associated with domestic violence. We firmly believe in protecting victim's rights. Natalie Baird, one of our firm's lawyers, was also a victim of domestic violence. Her experience being abused in the past caused her to become an attorney and represent those who suffer from abuse. You do not have to tolerate domestic violence alone. Contact us to schedule an initial consultation to learn more about protecting yourself and your family by obtaining a domestic violence injunction.
If the person who assaulted you or physically abused you, or who is about to assault you, is not a close family member, someone who lives with you, or is the parent of your child, you can still obtain protection against violence by filing for an order for protection (OFP) against repeat violence. No matter who makes the threats, no one should be allowed to abuse you and your family.
Domestic violence can take on many different forms and injure you in many different ways. You do not have to show bruises to be a victim of domestic violence. If you feel threatened by someone, you should speak with us to learn more about obtaining a domestic violence injunction. Some of the types of domestic violence we see involve:
- Assault and battery
- Rape and sexual abuse
- Sexual battery
- Stalking and harassment
If you or a family member has fallen victim to domestic violence or is threatened by allegations of violence, you should contact the Baird Law Group in Hillsborough County for an initial consultation about obtaining a domestic violence injunction or a restraining order.
