At the Smith Law Group, we know how to identify abuse in its many forms, and can not only help you obtain a protective restraining order against the abuser, but can refer you to other resources to assist you in obtaining temporary services, housing and counseling. We can also obtain financial support orders for you, which can sometimes make the difference in success or failure in your attempt to protect yourself and your children. With our experienced attorneys and knowledgeable staff, we can help you get out of a bad situation and start making a new life without fear or intimidation in it.

Have You Been Accused Of Domestic Violence?

If you have been accused of domestic violence and are facing a restraining order, effective legal representation is essential. You must act fast to prevent it from turning into a permanent restraining order. A restraining order could be in place for up to five years, affecting not only your ability to continue working, but your right to custody and visitation with the children, and right to own a firearm.
