Frequently asked questions

What qualifies as domestic violence under New York law?

Domestic violence in New York includes physical violence, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, harassment, intimidation, stalking, and coercion. These acts must occur between individuals in specific relationships, such as spouses, former spouses, co-parents, family members, or intimate partners. At The White Law Group, our experienced team, led by Rising Stars distinction recipient Mendy White, understands the complexities of domestic violence cases and can help you navigate your legal options.

How can The White Law Group help me with a domestic violence case?

The White Law Group provides compassionate and comprehensive legal support for domestic violence cases. Attorney Mendy White and his team can assist you by:

Filing or responding to orders of protection.
Representing you in Family Court or Criminal Court.
Addressing related issues such as custody and visitation.
Advocating for your safety and securing legal protections. With a track record of excellence recognized by the Rising Stars distinction, Mendy White ensures your case is handled with the utmost care and professionalism.

What is an Order of Protection, and how can I obtain one?

An Order of Protection is a legal directive designed to safeguard victims from further harm or threats by restricting the abuser's actions. You can obtain one by filing a petition in Family Court or through a criminal case initiated by law enforcement. The White Law Group, led by award-winning attorney Mendy White, will guide you through the process, ensuring your petition is complete and that your evidence is presented effectively to the court.

Can I get custody of my children if I am a victim of domestic violence?

Yes, domestic violence is a significant factor in custody decisions in New York. The courts prioritize the best interests of the child, and evidence of abuse can influence custody and visitation rulings. Mendy White and The White Law Group have extensive experience advocating for domestic violence survivors, ensuring that custody arrangements prioritize the safety and well-being of both you and your children.

Do I need to have physical evidence to prove domestic violence in court?

While physical evidence like photos, medical records, or police reports strengthens a case, it is not always required. Testimonies from you, witnesses, or experts can also be compelling. At The White Law Group, our lead attorney, Mendy White, uses his award-winning expertise to help gather and present the necessary evidence to support your claims and achieve the best possible outcome.

Mendy is heaven sent. As someone going through a very torturous divorce and custody battle, I would not have been able to get through it without him. After a horrible experience with my first attorney, Mendy was there to pick up the pieces and get the ball rolling. He knows what to say and how to say it. Mendy produces results. He genuinely cares about you and your families and will not stop fighting for you. I would recommend him every time.

Mendy is a true fighter, no doubt about it. He pulled off nothing short of miraculous—getting custody for a father in Florida. Let that sink in for a minute. The stakes were high, but Mendy’s expertise and tenacity produced the results we prayed for.Mendy didn’t just represent me; he fought for me, for my son, and for our future. Thank Gd and him, my son is now with me in Florida, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re facing a tough custody battle, Mendy White is the attorney who represents your interests, understands the law, the intricacies of the court system and above all his strategy produces the best possible outcome!

I had an excellent experience with Mende and his firm. He really fought for me the whole way, and did a great job. He always also answered the phone and got back to me right away whenever I had questions (which was often lol), and even now a long time after our case has been done he still calls me back when I have a quick question or an issue. It's hard to find an attorney as nice, patient, and as good at his Job as Mende. Top notch, and I highly recommend to all - thank you!

It's alarming how this law group, has garnered positive reviews when my experience has been anything but. One of their attorneys, Alex, vanished after taking my deposit and important documents. The office has been unresponsive for almost three months now, leaving me unable to retrieve my belongings. I'm at a loss for where to seek help. Should I turn to my Rabbi, the police, the Bar association, or all of the above? Meanwhile, the head of the law group Mr White, also remains unresponsive to the situation, showing no efforts to resolve the issue. This negligence has caused complications in my simple legal business matter.

Mr White is a superb lawyer. He is professional, caring, and a very compassionate individual. The very first time I called him, I was in tears and couldn't even speak. He calmed me down and gave me enough comfort to be confident, that he was going to assist me with my situation. Even though he is busy, he will answer his phone and let you know that he will return your call. He will apologize if he doesn't return your call within a time frame. I knew I was in the right hands when he mentioned "with god's help" He don't just worry about making money unlike other lawyers, he actually has your best interest at heart. He does his job and gives you updates. He speaks the truth and tell you as it is. I will recommend his services to anyone who is in need of an excellent lawyer. I wish you god's blessings Mr White.
