Are You Safe Inc

Mission Statement:

To provide legal and social services to victims of domestic violence and to promote awareness and education within our community, legal community and law enforcement agencies. 

Advocating… Educating… Empowering

Founded in 2009 by four dedicated Bay Area attorneys, Are You Safe set out with a mission to become advocates in the community, ensuring that victims and their children could find a sense of safety and security by having their own Pro Bono attorney help them navigate the legal system.

Ten years, over 500 restraining order hearings, over 250 educational seminars and community outreach activities, Are You Safeʼs advocacy work has only grown. We now provide free counseling to both victims and their families, while also promoting awareness and education to the numerous communities that make up the Tampa Bay Area through our seminars and speaking engagements.
