Ensuring Safety and Rights: Addressing Family Violence
Family violence is a deeply traumatic and sensitive issue that requires expert legal attention. At Mead Family Law, we approach every case with the utmost care, prioritising the safety and well-being of victims while ensuring their rights are always protected.
What is Family Violence?
Family violence encompasses any form of violent, threatening, coercive, controlling, or abusive behaviour that occurs within familial or intimate relationships. This can include physical, emotional, psychological, financial, or sexual abuse. It’s not always easy taking the necessary legal steps to protect oneself and any affected family members, but Mead Family Law works to make it so.
Securing Protective Orders
For many victims, the first step towards safety is securing a Family Violence Order (FVO). Mead Family Law provides comprehensive guidance in applying for these protective orders, ensuring that victims are shielded from further harm and that the legal process is as streamlined and non-traumatizing as possible.
Variances and Conciliation
Circumstances change, and there may be instances where protective orders need modification. We assist in applications to vary protective orders, whether it’s Police Family Violence Orders or FVOs. In situations where reconciliation is possible and safe, we also offer conciliation services for families.
