Read this resource if:
- you’re afraid for your safety or your children’s safety because your partner abused you or threatened to hurt you or damage your property; and
- you need a court order to protect yourself or your children.
The information we provide on this site explains the law in general and isn’t intended to be used as legal advice for specific legal problems. Because each person’s legal issue is different, it’s a good idea to talk to a lawyer. See Where can I get legal advice? to find legal services.
