What Is Harassment?

Harassment includes any repeated behaviour that causes distress, alarm, or fear. If you're unsure whether your situation qualifies, we can assess your case and advise on the best course of action. Common examples include:

Unwanted phone calls, emails, letters, or visits.
Online abuse, bullying, or stalking.
Verbal abuse, intimidation, or threats.
Physical damage to property (e.g., smashed windows).
Using pets (e.g., dogs) to frighten or intimidate.

If you are facing any of these behaviours, we can help you put a stop to it.

How Can You Stop Harassment?

There are two main legal options:

Report it to the police – Criminal action may be taken.
Apply for a civil injunction – A legal order that compels the harasser to stop the offending conduct.

If you're unsure which option is best for you, our legal team can guide you and take swift action on your behalf - contact us today.

How Can an Injunction Protect You?

An harassment injunction is a powerful legal tool that can:

Stop the harasser from contacting or approaching you.
Create an exclusion zone around your home or workplace.
Award damages if you have suffered financial loss.

For example, if your property has been damaged due to harassment, we can help you seek damages/compensation to cover the costs.

When Should You Apply?

To apply for an injunction, you must have evidence of at least two incidents of harassment. It’s crucial to act fast—delaying your application could weaken your case. We can help you gather the necessary evidence and prepare a strong case.

What If the Harasser Ignores the Injunction?

If the harasser breaches the order, we can:

invite the court to issue an arrest warrant;
initiate contempt of court proceedings, with a view to having sanctions imposed on the offending party.

With our legal expertise, we can bring any breach to the attention of the court so that it is dealt with firmly and effectively.

What Should You Do Right Now?

Collect evidence – Save any proof of harassment, which may include messages, emails or call logs.
Secure copies – Keep hard copies and digital backups.
Issue a warning – Let the harasser know legal action is imminent if they continue.

Don’t wait for the situation to escalate. We are here to help you take control and protect yourself. Contact us today, and we’ll take swift legal action to safeguard your rights and peace of mind.
