Respond to a Non-Molestation Application – Fixed Fee Support

If you have been served with a non-molestation application or order and need to respond quickly, I can prepare your response and supporting evidence on a fixed-fee basis.

Why people instruct me when responding to a non-molestation application

  • Fixed-fee clarity

  • Full preparation of your response

  • Supporting witness statement drafted for you

  • Clear advice on options (consent, contest, undertakings)

  • Guidance on evidence, risks and court expectations

  • Optional representation at the hearing

Responding to a non-molestation application

If you have been served with a non-molestation application or an interim order has already been made, you may need to respond quickly. The court will expect you to:

  • confirm whether you accept, oppose, or offer undertakings;

  • file a witness statement responding to the allegations;

  • provide any supporting evidence; and

  • attend a hearing, sometimes at very short notice.

The court will consider the allegations, risk assessments, the need for protection and whether undertakings without findings may be appropriate. A clear, well-structured response can significantly influence how the court deals with the application and any directions that follow.

I prepare your response, draft your evidence and advise on the options, prospects and likely outcomes.
