Orders of Protection and No Contact Orders are intended to protect victims of domestic violence, stalking, and abuse. These civil proceedings are unique in the way that they implicate the criminal court system. This firm regularly litigates these cases.

Protective orders can be important tools to guard against further harm and abuse. They can also be sought in bad faith with false allegations and flimsy evidence. Whether you are seeking protection or being accused of abuse, navigating the legal process effectively is critical.

If you are a Petitioner seeking a protective order, you must move the case along in court, ensure that all procedural requirements are met, and present evidence in support of your case to a judge. If you are a Respondent and an Order of Protection or No Contact Order has been filed against you, you can expect to be served by the Sheriff’s Office and you must appear in court to respond to the allegations. Having an order issued against you carries real consequences and can ultimately be the basis for criminal prosecution, so you must take these cases seriously.

Contact us if you need assistance with an Order of Protection or No Contact Order. We have extensive experience representing both Petitioners and Respondents in these matters.
