💜 DOMESTIC ABUSE AWARENESS MONTH – 1–31 OCTOBER 💜
Domestic abuse isn’t always physical, and it isn’t always easy to recognise.
It can include coercive or controlling behaviour, intimidation, threats, emotional or psychological abuse, financial abuse, isolation, harassment and stalking, as well as physical or sexual violence.
Throughout Domestic Abuse Awareness Month, we want to help raise awareness that nobody should feel frightened, controlled or unsafe within a relationship.
At Arthurs Solicitors, we understand how difficult it can be to take the first step towards seeking help. Our family law team provides confidential, sensitive and practical legal advice to those experiencing domestic abuse, including advice about protective orders and arrangements involving children.
You do not have to wait for abuse to become physical before asking for help.
