Novos avisos e ordens de proteção contra os abusos domésticos  

Em março de 2025, a Inglaterra e o País de Gales lançaram um projeto-piloto de novas Notificações e Ordens de Proteção contra o Abuso Doméstico (DAPNs). Estas ferramentas legais dão à polícia e aos tribunais poderes mais fortes para proteger as vítimas de violência doméstica. Na Goodman Ray, ajudamos os clientes a solicitar DAPOs através de processos familiares ou criminais para garantir uma proteção imediata e duradoura.

Sobrevivente de maus-tratos domésticos a quem foi negada ilegalmente assistência jurídica

A domestic abuse survivor was initially denied legal aid by the Legal Aid Agency (LAA), which deemed her ineligible because her son did not live with her. The LAA's assessment failed to consider the circumstances of the child's living arrangements. Represented by the Public Law Project, the woman challenged the decision in the High Court. On 8th March 2023, the court ruled in her favour, setting a precedent for future legal aid applications involving shared parenting arrangements.
