Leaving an abusive relationship takes a lot of courage. When your ex can still contact you in the meantime, that can leave you second-guessing your decision. What many women don't know is that there are ways to get protection from your abuser when you leave. If you've been abused, the best thing you can do is reach out to a domestic abuse attorney who can help you find the resources you need to protect yourself. I created this site to share my journey in fleeing abuse. I hope that the information here helps you understand what you can expect and shows you that you aren't alone.
