MIAMI-DADE OFFICE OF THE STATE ATTORNEY - MOBILE OPERATIONS VICTIM EMERGENCY SERVICES

Description:

The M.O.V.E.S. Program has on-call paralegals who assist victims of domestic violence. The paralegals respond to domestic violence arrest cases immediately after the crime to help the victim regain control of their lives by assessing their needs, taking a sworn statement of the incident, providing a safety plan and appropriate referral information available in the community. This early intervention helps build better cases for prosecution and provides our prosecutors with the necessary tools to make decisions about each case, improving the probability of successful prosecution.
