Preserving your future

A criminal charge of domestic violence or a civil protective order petition alleging domestic violence can affect your freedom, your family, your employment and your future. We will work for you to protect your interests in either situation. We recognize that every case is different and we make sure you understand the consequences of your specific case.

Our attorneys provide representation in the criminal and civil courts for:

  • Domestic assault
  • Harassment
  • Trespass
  • Telephone misuse
  • Protective orders
  • Protective order violations

Protecting victims of domestic abuse with a Maryland domestic protective order

Domestic violence crimes can involve child abuse and neglect, spousal abuse, domestic-partner abuse and elder abuse. Being married, divorced, or in a relationship or family does not entitle anyone to hit, threaten or abuse those at home or to have to be a victim of this behavior.

In Maryland, if you are being abused by someone you are in a relationship with, you will need to obtain a domestic violence protective order, and we can help. All three types ― interim, temporary and final ― can order your abuser to:

  • Not abuse or threaten to abuse you or anyone else listed in the order
  • Not contact, try to contact or harass you or anyone else listed in the order
  • Not enter your home
  • Stay away from you and/or your children, workplace, school, temporary residence (such as a shelter) or other family members’ homes
  • Move out of the house (if you shared it) and give you temporary use and possession of the home
