Domestic Violence

While domestic violence is a criminal offense that can be prosecuted in criminal court, it often overlaps with family law and can have far-reaching consequences on one’s family legal matters. It is important that you consult with an experienced lawyer about how domestic violence can affect you and your children. Whether you are a victim of domestic violence and need protection, or you have been charged and want to protect your future, call Gillett Law. A San Luis Obispo domestic violence lawyer can discuss your case and represent you throughout your legal matter.


Acts of domestic violence can include:

  • Assault and/or battery
  • Making threats
  • Destroying personal property
  • Harassing and stalking a person (in person or through text, email, etc.)
  • Sexual assault
  • Emptying bank accounts


Helping Victims File Protective Orders (Restraining Orders)

If you are a victim of domestic violence, our law firm can help you seek protective order to keep the abuser away from you and your family. We can guide you through the application process, help you prepare for court hearings, and advise you on how these matters can affect a divorce or custody case. Throughout the process, we’ll be by your side, protecting you from harm’s way.


How can protective orders help you? 

  • Prohibit the abuser from contacting you
  • Prohibit the abuser from  coming near your home and place of work
  • Establish child custody orders to protect you and your children
  • Mandate drug testing
  • Order for payment of your bills and rent 


If you are a victim of domestic abuse, contact Gillett Law today to talk with someone who can help you.

Defending the Accused

  There are always two sides to every story, and it certainly applies to domestic violence cases. It is not uncommon for divorcing couples to use domestic violence to gain leverage in custody or divorce proceedings. Because we believe so strongly in protecting people who are victims of domestic violence, we fight very hard against those who use the law inappropriately.  We recognize the complexities of these issues and can defend you in family and criminal courts.
