Are you in fear for your safety or the safety of your child? At Meinerts Law Office, P.A., attorney Merlyn Meinerts takes domestic violence in any and all forms very seriously. He has seen domestic violence become more and more prevalent, especially in divorce and family-related cases. Many spouses or parents use forms of domestic violence to gain control over a situation.

Mr. Meinerts can help you file for an Order For Protection (“OFP”) to keep yourself and your family safe from violence.  He can also be of assistance to those who are served with an OFP but deny the existence of domestic abuse in the relationship.
