Domestic Violence Restraining Order
Orange County Domestic Violence Restraining Order Attorney
The court can issue a domestic violence restraining order if there is some form of abuse or harassment between people who share a close relationship.
A close relationship refers to people who are married, dated, have children together, family, etc. If you don’t qualify for a domestic violence restraining order, you have other options such as a Civil Harassment Restraining Order.
The abuse can come from physical abuse, harassment, threats, stalking, or any type of action that causes fear for one’s safety or life. Abuse can be physical, written, or verbal.
A domestic violence restraining order can have severe consequences if there is a child involved. If a domestic violence restraining order is ordered against you, it is presumed that you are not a fit parent and you may lose custody of your child. This can lead to a number of separate issues including child visitation rights and child support ordered.
