Orders of Protection
If domestic violence is committed by a family member, you can file family offense petition in family court. If domestic violence is between unrelated people such as a boyfriend and girlfriend or neighbors, you can file for a restraining order in your local criminal court.
We can help you file temporary orders of protection/restraining orders and represent you at hearings to determine whether the order becomes permanent. Protective orders range from orders to refrain from harassment to a stay-away order of protection requiring the harasser to stay 1,000 feet away from you and your children.
