Have you been served with a Injunction in the Tampa
Bay area?

If the answer to the question is YES, then start calling attorneys immediately!

Injunctions are a very important area of family law and an area that the Office
devotes a good deal of time towards as the impact of these cases can have
long-term consequences.

William S. Foley, P.A. represents both Petitioners and Respondents in Domestic
Violence, Dating Violence and Repeat Violence Injunction hearings. We represent
those that are in need of an injunction (aka "restraining order") in a domestic
violence, repeat violence and dating violence situations. Even if you have filed pro
se (without an attorney) we can still represent you for the return hearing that the
Court sets in your case.

Additionally, the Firm represents Respondents in injunction return hearings and
feels that it is important to prepare extensively for these trials (return hearings) and
you can contact a Tampa injunction attorney at the Office at 813-272-2345 to set
up a free initial office consultation on your injunction issue.

Domestic Violence Injunctions are governed by Florida Statute 741.30 and involve
some of the toughest issues in all of family law. Some of these injunctions deal with
issues involving minor children and can therefore affect individuals rights with
regard to custody/time-sharing, support and child support. Call the office today if
you are involved in a Domestic Violence Injunction in the Tampa Bay area.

Repeat, Sexual and Dating Violence Injunctions are governed by Florida Statute
784.046 and are also important and the preparation for these hearings are no less
complicated or important than Domestic Violence Injunctions. These injunction
hearings and temporary injunctions need to be taken seriously and if you are a
petitioner or respondent in any of these cases you should speak with an attorney
immediately.

The Office treats these matters as EMERGENCIES as when a potential client calls
with these issues, their hearing is normally only 1-2 weeks away. As we focus on
family law and are accustomed to these emergency situations, if William S. Foley's
trial calendar is able to be accommodated, we can even represent a client when
their client is the next day, or only a couple of days away. Retaining William S.
Foley the day before your injunction hearing should only be done in extreme
circumstances (the Court set a short time frame for a return hearing, or you were
served very close to the hearing) as the preparation necessary for these hearings is
no less than any other major trial that may impact your livelihood or safety.
Additionally, it may be necessary to subpoena witnesses, or obtain evidence prior
to the hearing and it can take time to do these things.

There are no guarantees in family law, but experience has shown that you if you do
not take these hearings and cases seriously and think you can just retain a lawyer
after the final hearing to "fix" things you will be seriously dismayed at the hurdles
and sometimes roadblocks in trying to remedy an injunction that either should have
been entered but was not, or an injunction that you fought by yourself and lost, and
now you have to deal with the repercussions for a very long time.

Please call today if you have any questions or want a lawyer at your side.
