The Threat of Physical Harm (Usually by the Husband) If you have ever been abused, chances are that the abuse will continue once you have begun to discuss divorce. The court system can take steps to protect you. Tell your lawyer you want to get a "restraining order" against your husband. The court can require your husband to leave the home, not to approach closer than 100 feet from you, or even to stay out of your neighborhood. Some men ignore restraining orders, but if they do they risk going to jail. Many men do obey restraining orders, so it may well be worth a try.
