The Process: Service for the Abused and Alleged Abusers
At Berman & Associates we help victims of abuse obtain protection from abuse orders against their abusers. If you are being abused, or if you are accused of abuse and had an order issued against you, you have options and we are here to listen to and help you.
A judge can issue a temporary order that can evict the alleged abuser immediately, and prevent any contact with the victim. At a full hearing, which usually must be held within ten days, the judge will hear both sides and determine if the temporary order should be extended.
We can help abuse victims file initial petitions by explaining their rights under the law, as well as represent alleged abusers at a hearing to contest the order.
