You may want to talk to a lawyer to see if the judge made an error that can be appealed. In addition, you can reapply if another incident of domestic violence happens. You will find contact information for legal assistance on the FL Finding a Lawyer page of this website.
You may want to view our Safety Planning page as well, for other ways you can increase your safety.
