CONCORD — The DOVE Project, or Domestic Violence Emergency Project, is a program that provides victims of domestic violence and stalking with emergency legal services. A successful seminar was run at the N.H. Bar Center where attorneys were trained to handle DOVE cases.
The seminar helped prepare attorneys to take on protective order cases. Nearly 90 percent of domestic violence victims seeking a protective order do so without legal counsel, facing their abusers, who typically have an attorney in court. The primary goal of the DOVE Project is to facilitate representation for these individuals by attorneys who handle cases at no charge, and volunteer their time to pro bono.
