For the Domestic Violence Act, you file at the Protection Officer or directly to the Magistrate with an affidavit detailing the abuse and financial need; timeline can stretch for months as hearings get dates. You can do it without a lawyer, but the other side will likely bring one. My own case moved faster because I documented every bruise and withheld rent text like a delivery log—the tribunal understood that language better than my tears.
