The Legal Effects of Domestic Violence
Domestic violence not only affects the emotional and physical aspects of the individuals involved in the relation, but can also change the way the law affects them as well. Divorces are often handled differently, and the alleged abuser may find himself or herself without a right to parenting time.
Unfortunately, because domestic violence allegations are so powerful, they are sometimes used for strategic reasons in a divorce. They may be used in order to get one person out of the house. They may also be used to separate a parent from his or her children.
If there are allegations of domestic violence involved in your divorce, immediate steps need to be taken to protect yourself. If you fail to act, you may even be banned from your house within 24 hours of a restraining order being granted.
