- Families and intimate relationships: A family offense is a term used for threatening situations between people who have an intimate relationship. An "intimate relationship" can mean a family member, a marriage partner, a domestic partner, a boyfriend or girlfriend not living in the home — anyone who has an intimate relationship.
- Orders of protection: A court order of protection directs the person accused of violence to stop any violent threats or conduct against the person who sought the order of protection. In many cases, the order can also include children. At our New York law office, our lawyers can help you file a petition for an order of protection and represent you in court.
- Stay-away orders: The stay-away order excludes the offender from the home and from any contact with the person who got the order and may include the children — except for court-ordered visitation.
- Domestic violence defense: We sometimes have clients who have been falsely accused of domestic violence. False charges can change the dynamics in a divorce or in a child custody case. If this has happened to you, contact us about fighting the order of protection and clearing your name.
We take domestic violence cases seriously at the Law Offices of Nangia & Kazansky. It is important to understand your rights and to take appropriate actions to protect yourself and your family. Contact us to learn about your options.
