FAQ

1Do I need evidence to request a protective order?
Yes. In case of long-term orders, courts typically require evidence such as messages, witness statements, police reports, or other documentation showing a history or risk of harm. Our family violence lawyers can help compile them and streamline the process of getting a protective order from the court.
2How quickly can I get a protective order?
Temporary protective orders can often be issued rather quickly based on the urgency and evidence presented to the court. Sometimes, they can even be obtained on the same day.
3What should I do if I feel the protection order is unjust?
It is common for parents to file an unjust protection order just to gain child custody. Our family violence defense attorneys can contest an unjust protection order and represent your case properly to the court.
4How long can a protective order last?
Temporary orders last until a court hearing. However, final protective orders can last from months to several years, depending on the case and the court’s decision.
5What happens if someone violates the court’s protective order?
Violating a protective order is a serious offense that may result in an arrest, jail time, fines, or criminal charges, along with additional legal consequences. Our domestic violence attorneys always advise clients to proceed with restraint and caution when and if a protective order is in place. Violating these orders can have long-term ramifications.
