Montvale Restraining Order Attorneys
As one of the more sensitive issues in family law, allegations of domestic violence will further complicate an already complicated situation. Whether you seek protection for you and your children, or you have been wrongfully accused of domestic abuse, you need a skilled lawyer who can defend your safety and your rights.
At the law office of Michael E. Spinato P.C., we provide compassionate, dedicated services for families in the midst of difficult divorces and other family law matters. From our office in Glen Rock, New Jersey, we represent clients throughout Bergen County and the surrounding area. We seek to obtain resolutions that meet your immediate needs and protect your rights and interests both now and in the future.
Protecting Victims of Domestic Abuse
If you are a victim of domestic abuse, you must take steps to protect yourself and your children. As your advocate, we will help you obtain a legal order of protection against your abusive spouse or partner. We can then help you consider your options for divorce or separation as well.
We keep all of our consultations strictly confidential. Especially in such sensitive cases as domestic abuse, we seek to offer the supportive advocacy you need to protect your livelihood. We listen closely to your concerns and work diligently to obtain resolutions that protect your safety and interests both now and in the future.
Defending Your Rights Against False Accusations
Unfortunately, sometimes individuals will accuse former spouses or partners of domestic violence as a way to obtain child custody or to gain leverage in divorce actions. If you have been wrongfully accused of domestic abuse, we can help you protect your rights, particularly those involving custody and parenting time.
Our attorneys perform a thorough investigation of the evidence against you. We will:
- Interview witnesses, if necessary
- Examine any domestic dispute reports
- Work with outside professionals, such as psychologists, psychiatrists or forensic experts, if necessary
Throughout the entire process, our goal is to obtain the truth of the matter and protect your rights and reputation.
