In domestic violence situations, divorcing your abuser is one of the most significant steps you can take to get free and start your life over.
But protecting your personal information, including your telephone number and address is a big part of keeping you safe when dealing with someone who has hurt or threatened you during your marriage.
Domestic violence survivors have a range of protections built in to the law in New York, including the option of having an unlisted telephone number at no extra charge, or changing their name and having the records sealed for privacy.
Tools like orders or protection or even criminal charges are appropriate in many cases.
