Domestic Violence Representation in Pennsylvania & New Jersey Family Courts

Domestic violence is an issue that demands immediate attention

Whether you are a victim seeking protection or someone accused of abuse, the outcome of your case can shape your family relationships, your access to your home, and your future. At The Law Office of David Garnes, we act quickly and decisively to protect your rights and ensure your safety.

Protection From Abuse (PFA) Orders in Pennsylvania

Victims of abuse in Pennsylvania can petition the court for a Protection From Abuse (PFA) order. This civil order can:

Prohibit an abuser from contacting you

Remove them from your shared residence

Grant temporary custody of children

Provide immediate safety while legal matters proceed

We represent both those seeking PFAs and those defending against them, ensuring the court hears your side of the story.

Restraining Orders in New Jersey

New Jersey issues both temporary and final restraining orders. These orders can carry significant legal and personal consequences, including affecting employment, housing, and custody rights. We guide clients through the process, whether filing for protection or defending against allegations.
