Top 10 of 896 law firms for Abuse, Domestic Violence Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Abuse work in England covers civil protections and related remedies to prevent or respond to domestic abuse, including coercive or controlling behaviour and threats within intimate or familial relationships. A solicitor in this area drafts and pursues protective orders, such as non-molestation orders, occupation orders and other related injunctions, liaises with police and local authorities, gathers evidence, and represents clients in family, civil, and housing proceedings where safeguarding or risk is at stake. The work often involves coordinating with social services and child arrangements when children are affected.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor drafts applications, collects evidence, obtains medical and police reports, negotiates interim arrangements, and represents the client at hearings for non-molestation and occupation orders, emergency protection orders, and related protective measures. They liaise with the police, local authorities, social services, and family courts, and may coordinate with housing authorities on safety-linked occupancy issues, child contact, and relocation needs. The case may involve risk assessments and safeguarding plans, with deadlines and discretionary relief governed by the Family Court and the Family Procedure Rules.

Emma Wheelhouse

Tagged solicitor Emma Wheelhouse

Emma took on my historic child abuse case and worked diligantly, with care and compassion, to achieve a substantial sum of money for me. But it was never about the money, it was about being heard and believed, and being able to get justice from the organisation who left me in danger! It was closure and healing at the same time. Emma (and team) worked on my case for quite a few years, no stone went unturned, and was very thorough and professional. She really listened to me, and understood where I was and what i wanted to achieve. And she did this and so much more! I cant thank Emma and Thompsons enough for their professionalism and for the outcome I received, and I highly recommend her. It is not a short process, and requires much patience, but well worth the wait! Thank you Emma :)
