What We Do

Legal Protection From Abuse

Domestic violence is not only physical. Under the Sindh Domestic Violence (Prevention and Protection) Act 2013, it includes physical, emotional, psychological, verbal, and economic abuse within the home. The law entitles a victim to apply to the court for protection — and the court can act quickly to stop the abuse and secure the victim's safety and residence.

We help victims obtain protection orders that restrain the abuser, residence orders that secure the home, and monetary relief for expenses and losses. Where the conduct is also a criminal offence, we pursue that too. Everything you tell us is treated in the strictest confidence.

Ask a Question
What counts as domestic violence under Pakistani law?
Under the Sindh Domestic Violence (Prevention and Protection) Act 2013, domestic violence includes physical, emotional, psychological, verbal, and economic abuse committed within a domestic relationship — not only physical harm. If you are experiencing any of these, you can seek the court's protection.
What protection can the court give me?
The court can pass a protection order (restraining the abuser), a residence order (securing your right to remain in the home safely), and a monetary order (for expenses, losses, and maintenance). Interim orders can be granted quickly while the case proceeds. We apply for the orders that fit your situation.
Is my case kept confidential?
We treat everything you share in the strictest confidence, and these are sensitive matters handled with discretion. Your safety and privacy are our priority. You can reach us privately on WhatsApp to begin.
Can I get an urgent order if I'm in danger?
Yes. The law allows for interim protection orders so a victim is not left unprotected while the case is heard. If you are in immediate danger, contact us at once — we move urgently — and reach the police for emergency help.
Can I also take criminal action against the abuser?
Yes. Where the abuse amounts to a criminal offence, criminal remedies can be pursued alongside protection under the 2013 Act. We advise on using both together to keep you safe and hold the abuser accountable.
