Domestic Violence

Domestic violence is a serious matter.  No child or adult should ever be a victim.  If you are in a violent situation, you are not alone. In a new study released by the Georgia Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Georgia has the 12th highest rate of women killed by men, Georgia reports over 1,300 deaths in the past decade as a result of domestic violence. Most violence continues to go unreported, with children being silent victims.

Unfortunately, some falsely claim that they are victims of domestic violence.  They do this to gain an advantage in a civil case such as a divorce or custody battle.  The attorneys at Hait & Kuhn vigorously defend the wrongfully accused.  Through protecting the innocent, true victims of domestic violence are able to bring their aggressors to justice.

If your current or ex-spouse or partner threatens to/does harm you, immediately call the police and file a report.  If there is proof of the altercation or threats, the police should remove the perpetrator for the night.  Immediately take pictures and videos of any marks the aggressor placed on you or your children.  As soon as you have established your safety, call our office to see if you qualify for a Family Violence Temporary Protective Order (12 months of protection).
