Question: What if somebody is harassing me and it is escalating to the point where he's trying to get me fired from my job? I tried to get an injunction against harassment, but the court turned me down. He, however, got an injunction against workplace harassment, and everything he told the court was a verifiable why. If I can't afford an attorney, what do I do when where do I turn? This person has done the same thing to multiple victims in multiple cities. He is also a scam artist with eight aliases. I can't find anyone to help me.
Answer: Your situation requires careful thought and consideration. Domestic abuse can take many forms. Is isn't always physical abuse. There are a number of domestic violence resources in Arizona that you may find helpful: Arizona Coalition to end Sexual and Domestic violence (http://www.acesdv.org/) 1 800-782-6400; Arizona Crime Victims Services (http://www.azdps.gov/Services/Crime_Victims/) 1-877-785-2020; National Domestic Violence Hotline (http://www.thehotline.org/is-this-abuse/abuse-defined/) 1-800-799-7233. Another resource is Community Legal Services at 602-258-3434. The various resources listed can offer guidance to help you through this difficult time. Another possible avenue is to at least talk with a lawyer about your situation. Bring any paperwork you have to support your statements to the meeting.
