Protection Orders

Physical harm, bodily injury, assault, fear of imminent physical harm, sexual assault or stalking by another family or household member is a terrifying situation that some people unfortunately must face.

In our state, laws exist to help an individual obtain protection from the court in such situations. From the initial filing of a petition for an order of protection and service upon the other party, to court hearings on the petition and its enforcement, our representation focuses upon walking the client through every critical step of the legal process to help ensure their personal safety.
