Civil Complaints & Answers Preparation

Family Law: Domestic Violence Restraining Orders, commonly referred to as “DVROs,” are legal measures intended to prevent harassment or abuse inflicted by one individual (the restrained person) upon another (the protected party). These orders can be pursued by spouses, former partners, and family members. Seeking assistance with restraining orders is imperative, as the initial hearing typically involves the judge reviewing documentation. Our office specializes in handling both family law restraining orders and civil harassment restraining orders, which differ based on the nature of your relationship with the restrained party. While family law restraining orders involve individuals with families or past romantic ties, civil harassment restraining orders often pertain to cohabitants, roommates, coworkers, and individuals unrelated to you by blood or marriage, and with whom you never been romantically involved.
