Domestic Abuse

If anything is urgent or you are in danger, call the police on 999.

Our highly regarded domestic abuse solicitors work from our offices in Dorset and Wiltshire to provide sympathetic but practical advice.

If you are in a relationship that is not working for you, either because you feel threatened or are with a violent or abusive partner, it can be difficult to know where to turn to for help – but it is important not to suffer domestic abuse in silence. Asking for help is the first step to resolving the situation.

At Farnfields, you can speak with our domestic abuse solicitors in complete confidence. We understand the feelings and concerns you have and make it our priority to support and help you through this difficult time.

How we can help with domestic abuse and domestic violence

Domestic abuse—whether physical, emotional, or psychological—is never acceptable. We understand that leaving an abusive partner isn’t always simple, especially when children or financial concerns are involved. That’s why it’s important to speak to someone who can offer practical, confidential advice.

At Farnfields, your safety comes first. We act quickly to understand your situation and can take urgent legal steps, including applying for court orders to protect you and your family.

You can talk to us in complete confidence. We’ll explain your options, how the law can protect you, and connect you with organisations that offer additional support. We keep you informed throughout, using clear and straightforward guidance.

Domestic abuse takes many forms, and whatever you’re experiencing, reaching out is the first step. If you feel you’re in an abusive relationship, call us for a free and confidential conversation. You don’t have to face this alone.
