You may go to court yourself (without an attorney) to petition for an injunction to protect yourself against domestic violence (assault or battery by your spouse whether you are separated or not, or your former spouse), repeat violence, or sexual violence. If you feel you are the victim of domestic violence, repeat violence, or sexual violence, you should contact the office of the clerk of the circuit court in your county or the local domestic violence shelter for information and assistance. However, the maneuvering through the legal system can be difficult to understand and traumatic if you are a victim of domestic violence. Contact attorney Maggie Gutierrez and the Law Office of Margaret M. Gutierrez, P.L. if you need help and advice with filing the petition for an injunction to protect yourself against domestic violence in Key West, Marathon, Islamorada, Plantation Key or any where in Monroe County, Florida. |
