Non-Molestation Order Solicitors

A Non-Molestation Order can prohibit an associated person from using or threatening violence, harassing, intimidating or otherwise molesting an applicant or relevant child. We help prepare focused evidence and seek urgent protection where appropriate.

Applying for protection

The application normally includes a witness statement explaining the relationship, incidents, current risk and terms sought. The court considers all the circumstances, including the health, safety and wellbeing of the applicant and any relevant child.

  • Urgent and without-notice applications
  • Witness statements and supporting evidence
  • Return hearings and contested proceedings
  • Extensions, variations and discharge

Breach of an order

Breach without reasonable excuse is a criminal offence. If you are in immediate danger, call 999. Preserve evidence of any breach and obtain advice about police involvement and further family-court steps.

Common questions

Do I need a police report to apply?

Not necessarily. Police evidence can be relevant, but applications may rely on other credible evidence such as messages, medical material, witnesses and the applicant's statement.

How long does a Non-Molestation Order last?

The duration is set by the court according to the circumstances. Orders are commonly made for a fixed period and may sometimes be extended.
