Domestic Violence

Harassment Solicitors

Anyone who is suffering from domestic violence must take action. For many victims of domestic violence the hardest thing they ever did was in fact seeking help. Fear is a powerful emotion which can stop even the strongest.

At Lloyd Platt & Company we can give you the advice needed regarding your protection. We understand that seeking help in these circumstances can be extremely difficult, but we will do everything we can to ensure you feel you have the support you need.

Courts in the UK have the power to serve legally binding orders which do not require the guilty individual to even be informed of your decision until the court order is served. The court order, also known as a non-molestation order, can range from prohibiting the threat of violence, the use of violence, harassment and can even stop that person entering the home regardless of who owns the property.

Domestic Violence Solicitors

Lloyd Platt & Company prides itself in having a list of therapists who can assist in overcoming such difficulties and in the case of the perpetrator to address the conduct by way of anger management courses.

Since the practice invokes a holistic approach to matrimonial work, the recipients of domestic violence have to rebuild their confidence and often we can refer to those who are qualified to help and deal with the legal factors to provide safety and protection.

If you are experiencing domestic violence we make the following suggestions:

• Contact the police and report what is going on


• Visit your GP if you have been harmed


• Have someone you trust photograph any injuries caused by domestic violence


• Save any harassing voice mails or abusive text messages


• Take a note of the dates and details of any abuse
