How Do I File For A Restraining Order?

There are a number of steps you need to follow once you file for a restraining order, also referred to as a domestic violence injunction or order of protection. Once it is approved, certain requirements need to be met, including:

  • Either you or your abuser will be required to leave your residence if you live together.
  • Your abuser will not be allowed within 500 feet of your school, workplace, home, or any other location you frequent.
  • Your abuser will not be allowed within 100 feet of your vehicle.
  • Your abuser may not be allowed to see your children.
  • You may be able to file for sole custody of your children.
  • Your abuser may not be allowed to make any form of contact or communication with you.

It will be up to the judge to determine which of these requirements should become permanent, and an experienced family law attorney can help ensure that the most vital points are secured in order to keep you safe.
