Injunctions – Non-Molestation & Occupation Orders Legal Advisory
We offer urgent, confidential legal assistance to individuals seeking protection from harassment, abuse, or threats of violence. Our experienced family law team supports clients in applying for court injunctions to ensure their safety and well-being.
Non-Molestation Orders
A Non-Molestation Order is designed to protect individuals and children from abuse, harassment, or intimidation by a partner, ex-partner, or family member.
We assist with:
· Emergency applications, including without notice (ex parte) orders
· Gathering evidence and preparing witness statements
· Representing clients at court hearings
· Advising on enforcement—breach of a Non-Molestation Order is a criminal offence
Occupation Orders
An Occupation Order regulates who can live in the family home. It can require an abuser to leave the property, even if they are the legal owner or tenant.
We advise on:
· Eligibility and grounds for applying
· Applications to exclude the respondent from the home
· Urgent interim orders in high-risk cases
· Long-term arrangements for housing and children
Additional Support
· Linking clients with domestic abuse services and safe housing options
· Coordinating with the police and safeguarding agencies
Follow-up support with divorce, custody, and financial matters where relevant
