The Domestic Violence Law in SA
South Africa’s Domestic Violence Act provides comprehensive legal protection to those who are victims of abuse. This law ensures that individuals facing physical, emotional, or psychological abuse in their homes have access to legal tools to protect themselves. At Burger Huyser Attorneys, we specialize in helping you understand your rights under this important piece of legislation.
Obtaining a Protection Order
One of the most important tools available under domestic violence law is the protection order. If you are facing abuse, you can apply for a protection order that legally requires the abuser to cease their harmful behavior. This order can include provisions such as prohibiting contact with the abuser, removing the abuser from your home, and granting you access to support services.
At Burger Huyser Attorneys, we assist you with every aspect of the protection order application process. We ensure that the paperwork is completed accurately and that your case is presented effectively in court. Our team is here to make sure you get the legal protection you need to feel safe in your home and your life.
