The State of New York takes allegations of Domestic Violence very seriously. Whether you have been the victim of, or have been accused of Domestic Violence in family law proceedings, you need legal representation to protect yourself, your family & your rights. We work to assure that you receive fair treatment and have your rights and your physical person protected, throughout the legal process. Domestic Violence is not limited to allegations of physical abuse, but emotional, psychological, mental and financial abuse, as well. The laws are gender-neutral, apply to both traditional and same-sex relationships and extend to abuse perpetrated upon various family members, in addition to spouses, partners and children. One of the most immediate & effective steps we can take on behalf of victims of Domestic Violence, is to ask the court to issue an Order of Protection or a Restraining Order, which limit the alleged offender’s behavior in order to protect victims from further abuse.

Many people are under the misconception that when seeking a divorce dealing with another family-related matter, litigation is the only answer. Fortunately, this is not the case. Mediation is a common form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) which is recognized for its ability to guide two disputing parties towards reaching a mutually agreeable decision. Mediation is much less contentious than litigation, which is an excellent benefit if you and your spouse wish to remain amicable or if you share children. At The Law Office of Joana Kaso, we can help you deal with your complicated family law issue without going to court.
