What protection is available for victims of domestic abuse? Sadly for some, Christmas is filled with fear and anxiety particularly if their relationship has broken down or if they are forced to remain living in the home with their abuser. Read Ivan Taffin de Tilques piece online which uses a fictional scenario to outline the key features of the two most common orders sought by victims of domestic abuse: a non-molestation order and an occupation order. https://lnkd.in/ebZCDPRC If you’re concerned about your personal circumstances, please contact Linda Pope or any member of our matrimonial team.
