Fighting Abuse

Our attorney, Shawn Hammond, recently returned from fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. He led a company of 52 men in active combat and, in the process, was awarded 17 medals and awards, including a Bronze Star. He is used to a tough fight. When he takes your domestic violence case, he does whatever it takes within the bounds of the law to make sure that the spousal abuse stops. This includes obtaining restraining orders. It also includes making sure you have the resources to avoid family violence now and in the future.

Shawn Hammond was the attorney for Safe Homes of Augusta, which manages the local women's shelter. This position gave him extensive experience in filing domestic violence petitions. It also gave him in-depth knowledge of domestic violence resources so that you are kept safe, even during what can be the most dangerous times—like when you are leaving your abuser.
