Social media has changed our lives in so many ways. One change that I see in Orlando domestic cases is how people communicate with each other. It is not uncommon for one spouse or another to post something about the other spouse that in less than flattering. Sometimes people engage in behavior that they regret but there are pictures that end up on the internet, these photos can be damaging to more than just an ego. Remember everything you do and say on social media sites, text messages, and in emails may all be used as evidence in your pending domestic case. More than just damaging to your case these types of communications may have a lasting negative impact on your children. In Florida, the courts are most concerned about the best interest of the children when determining which parent is better suited to have the children. Please remember that what you put into cyberspace can and will have lasting effects on your family, children and case in general.

Domestic violence rates have sky rocketed in Central. In 2011 7 murders have been attributed to domestic violence, whereas there were only 3 murders in 2010 attributed to domestic violence. (source www.WFTV.com). Organizations such as Harbor House of Central Florida in conjunction with the United Way have teamed up to draw awareness to the growing problem in our communities. See full press release at http://www.harborhousefl.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/August-23-Press-Packet.pdf or visit http://www.harborhousefl.com/ for more information on Harbor House of Central Florida.
Oftentime victims of domestic violence experience shame and fear associated with the violence. It is important to know that you do have options and our community and legal system have resources in place to help you and your family escape your abuser. The hardest step is often the first step, but taking it can change or even save your life.
