No one should be made to feel unsafe in their own home.
Your home should be your sanctuary, but when you’re the victim of harassment or domestic abuse, it can feel anything but. You know the longer you’re left without protection the worse things can get. But getting help can feel like a minefield. Knowing who to trust when so much of your trust has been broken seems like an impossible task. You deserve an expert solicitor who understands the risks involved for you and is ready to fight tooth and nail to get you the protection you deserve.
“NJP Solicitors went above and beyond to help and support me through a difficult situation, I can’t thank them enough for what they did for me and would 100% recommend to others in the future.”
