We specialise in acting for Applicants in applications for a family violence order.
Whether you are seeking advice regarding your current or recent relationship that has been affected by family violence, considering making an application, or have already made an application and require assistance in Court, Tamar Legal can assist.
We have a thorough knowledge of the Family Violence Act 2004 (Tas) and have had notable experience in prosecuting applications for family violence orders, resulting in successful outcomes for our clients.
We can also assist with applications to vary, to extend, or to revoke current Police Family Violence Orders or Family Violence Orders and can represent you during all stages of the Court process, from an initial "first return" mention, through to a conciliation conference and/or hearing.
We also work closely with family violence support services throughout Tasmania, Tasmania Police, and Tasmania Legal Aid.
We accept referrals directly from Tasmania Legal Aid, and we can also make an application for a grant of Legal Aid on your behalf.
We understand that family violence is a serious issue that affects spouses, children and other family members, and our advice is delivered in a sensitive, pragmatic and considered way.
