Family court attorney, I am scared to face my husband during the divorce proceedings.

Even during divorce proceedings, through a family court attorney, you can request institutional measures to protect the safety of the victim.

First, in cases where physical or mental threats are recognized due to verbal or physical abuse, you can apply for the following emergency temporary measures through the police along with a report.

∙ Removal of the perpetrator from the residence or rooms occupied by the victim or family members

∙ Prohibition of approach within 100 meters of the residence, workplace, etc. of the victim or family members

∙ Prohibition of approach using telecommunications to the victim or family members

If this measure is issued, your husband will not be able to approach within a certain distance or contact you.

Also, when accompanied by a family court attorney, direct face-to-face encounters in court can be minimized, and if necessary, additional victim protection orders can be applied for from the court to obtain additional approach prohibitions.

Nevertheless, if anxiety continues during the divorce proceedings, it is also good to consider strengthening your safety net through private security services.

Discussing with a family court attorney allows you to simultaneously proceed with legal procedures and personal protection measures.
