Brooklyn Domestic Violence Lawyer
Domestic violence is a sensitive and emotional matter that impacts entire families in various ways. A victim of domestic violence may fear for his or her safety and the safety of his or her children. An individual accused of domestic violence may have limitations placed on his or her freedoms. When children are involved, child custody, visitation and child support decisions can be influenced. I have been a family law attorney since 1978. My experience representing victims and those who are accused can be used to help you and your family.
