Yes a restraining order will help.
Debra Thal (username) :
He is threatening her.
Debra Thal (username) :
She should call the police and indicate that he is threatening her and she is afraid.
Debra Thal (username) :
If they cannot help she can seek a restraining order on her own.
Debra Thal (username) :
Or for now she can seek an order for exclusive possession of the matrimonial home though I don't think she can get this fast enough.
Debra Thal (username) :
Her next step should be to first call the police and then retain a lawyer.
Debra Thal (username) :
She can contact the BC Branch of the Canadian Bar Association and use their Lawyer Referral Service. She will be given the name of a lawyer and can consult with the lawyer and the first half hour will be $25.
