Empowering Survivors, through legal advice

At Rise Against Domestic Violence, we are committed to providing accurate and compassionate legal advice to individuals who are not legally represented. Our dedicated team of volunteer legal professionals assists with a range of matters, including domestic violence cases, divorce proceedings, protection orders, child and spousal maintenance, and criminal matters such as assault. We aim to empower survivors with the information and support needed to navigate these often complex and emotionally challenging legal processes.

In addition to offering direct support to survivors, we also provide a platform for students and aspiring legal professionals to gain practical experience within our support groups. This hands-on involvement allows students to develop their skills, understand real-world legal challenges, and contribute meaningfully to our mission of assisting those in need. Through this dual focus, we not only help individuals seek justice but also nurture the next generation of compassionate and skilled legal professionals.

Our Survivor Support Program offers tailored assistance to both men and women, ensuring survivors receive access to critical resources, emotional support, and legal knowledge. Through this program, survivors can find a supportive environment that fosters empowerment and healing.

In partnership with Vita Nova Counselling, we provide access to therapy and counseling for survivors and those seeking change, with a commitment to rehabilitation for offenders. This comprehensive approach promotes understanding and education about domestic violence and narcissistic abuse, empowering communities to address these issues constructively.
