Domestic Violence During the Coronavirus Pandemic
According to the New York Times, domestic violence is on the rise during the COVID-19 lockdown. Generally, divorce rates and domestic violence goes up whenever couples spend more time together, such as during Christmas and summer vacation. However, given our new reality that requires us to remain at home, it is natural for victims of domestic violence to feel trapped in their home with no other place to flee. The natural question one must ask is, what remedy is available for victims of domestic violence during these trying times?
Victims of domestic violence during the Coronavirus lockdown can visit the NYC Family Justice Center’s website for information and calling NYC’s 24-hour hotline. However, he or she will find that the best solution is to seek an order of protection from family court to prevent further abuse and harassment.
