Troubles like losing a job, depression or excessive drinking and drug use often lead to domestic violence.
The Ugly Side of Domestic Violence
Domestic violence is extraordinarily hard on the family. When moms are hit, humiliated or injured due to domestic violence, it's hard to take good care of the children.
Abused moms often miss work due to injuries, spending time in the emergency room or hospital. They may even be fired for missing too much work.
When moms hurt, children hurt too. Children are terrified when one parent attacks the other. When trouble starts at home, children of abused parents often have trouble in school. Grades may go down, and many start skipping school or taking drugs.
When Does It Stop?
Fortunately, there is legal recourse. To help ensure the safety of a client, lawyer Charlotte Weinstein can pursue a protection order against the abuser:
- Stop telephoning, stalking or contacting the victim at home or work
- Force the abuser to move out
- Order the abuser to get help
Even orders of protection do not guarantee safety. In special circumstances, an attorney at the Law Offices of Charlotte K. Weinstein may recommend a temporary restraining order to stop further abuse.
