Hello
I took out a non molestation against my ex 5 years ago after he attacked me and my mum.
the police arrested him and I saw a solicitor the next day to arrange it, we managed to get a court date the following day and they granted it no problem. I didn’t need any witnesses just the police report. The bit that took time was he had to be served with the papers by my solicitor and they were struggling to find where he was and during that time I couldn’t go home because the non mol wasn’t active until the papers were served. I think it took around 6 days in total from the attack to the papers being in his hand. 6 months after he turned up at my house and I rang the police and they arrested him straight away
Oh and just to add this was all free of charge via legal aid too as it was domestic violence
