Overview

​

We understand that facing abuse—whether physical, verbal, emotional, or psychological—can be deeply traumatic and disorienting. Abuse can happen in various settings, including within marriages, relationships, or households, and it often leaves victims feeling powerless and afraid to take action. Taking the first step to break free from an abusive situation can seem daunting, but you do not have to face it alone.

​

In North Carolina, the legal system provides a structured way for victims of abuse to seek protection and reclaim their safety. At King & Rowe, Attorneys at Law, we are here to offer you the support, guidance, and legal expertise needed to navigate this difficult and emotional journey. Our primary goal is to ensure that you feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout the process.

​

If you find yourself in an abusive situation, it often takes more than just separating physically from the abuser, especially if you share a home or children with them. There are many legal complexities involved in domestic violence cases, and our attorneys are skilled in managing these complexities while prioritizing your safety and security. We are here to walk you through each step of the legal process, providing a clear plan for not only ensuring your immediate safety but also addressing any ongoing legal and emotional needs.
