Calabasas Domestic Violence and Abuse Lawyers
Seeking Justice Through A Domestic Violence/Abuse Case
In Los Angeles & Ventura County
Domestic violence, abuse and neglect inflict serious harm. Families may suffer economic, psychological, physical, and other losses at the hands of someone they once trusted. In some cases, domestic violence is fatal.
At Feinberg & Waller, APC, our mission is to protect our clients and their children. If a spouse, former spouse, household member, romantic partner or family member abused you or your child, we can help you file a domestic violence/abuse case in California to get a restraining order and justice under the Domestic Violence Prevention Act (DVPA). We are determined to get fair results for you.
Domestic violence and abuse can lead to several consequences for you and
your family,
such as:
- Medical costs and lost income from injuries
- Emotional trauma, as well as past, current, and future costs of therapy
- Disfigurement, loss of limb, or loss of physical function
- Economic loss through manipulation and financial abuse

We Will Stand Up for You
If a spouse or someone else put your health or your life in danger, do not wait to hold them accountable. We take the safety and justice of our clients seriously.
Our experienced attorneys will do everything in their power to protect you and strengthen your case.
Domestic Tort
In addition to a Domestic Violence/Abuse case under the DVPA, you may also have a domestic tort case. A domestic tort is a type of lawsuit that you can file against someone who inflicted abuse or neglect. Although the legal purpose of a domestic tort is to claim compensation for the resulting damages, many families also file a domestic tort to get closure and personal justice.
What Are the Damages of a Domestic Tort?
With a strong domestic tort, you may be able to secure compensation for each type of damage that you suffered, and possibly attorneys’ fees, punitive damages, and injunctive remedies.
Common Types of Domestic Torts
Domestic tort lawsuits can be filed for a variety of reasons beyond sexual, physical, and emotional abuse.
In California, plaintiffs can file lawsuits to address these harmful acts:
- Battery or assault, even if a restraining order has not been filed
- Fraud, which includes identity theft, changing asset titles, or converting property without permission
- Herpes, HIV, or STD infection
- Invasion of privacy, which includes recording and disseminating intimate images and accessing the plaintiff’s computer, email accounts, and other accounts without permission
- Violation of custody rights, which include relocating a child without permission, abducting the child, and disregarding court custody orders
If you believe that you have standing to file this type of lawsuit, contact us. Our lawyers will give you the time you need to share your account and your concerns and help you find the right attorney to file this lawsuit. You can rely on us to give you an honest assessment of your case so that you know your options before you move forward.
