Los Angeles Orders Of Protection Lawyer

Defense For Orders Of Protection

Orders Of Protection Attorney In Los Angeles

A victim of domestic violence may seek out a restraining order or an order of protection in order to get law enforcement’s and the court’s help in avoiding further abuse. This is a court order which restrains the alleged abuser from any further acts of violence, or from contacting or coming within a certain distance of the victim. If a person violates an order of protection, law enforcement’s initial response is usually to make an arrest and ask questions later.

If you have had an order of protection issued against you, or if you have been arrested for violating an order of protection, you will need a defense lawyer on your side that can help protect your rights. Don’t let your future become at risk because you have been labeled an abuser due to an order of protection. You still have rights, and a Los Angeles domestic violence defense attorney can serve to protect those rights.
