The phone breaking stuff is viewed seriously by the poice. It's like he wanted to stop you calling them.

The advice you've received above is sound.

I am a solicitor and one of my accreditations with the Law Society Advanced Family Law Panel is for domestic violence.

Your first port of call should always be the police. If they arrest him they should only release him on bail conditions that ensure he stays away until the case is heard. Then at that hearing the court has the powere to make a restraining order against him.

If you take that route you'll not need to apply for an injunction.

If the police don't give you this protection you should see a solicitor as soon as possible. You won't get legal aid however unless you've gone to the police first or a warning letter has been sent to him.

I can understand of you don't want to be aroud the house right now, but you need to consider quickly where you want to be when all this dies down. If you want to remain in the house then bail conditions may enable you to return there. That way you can secure the contents and have your child disrupted as little as possible.
