A restraining order is a protective court order that makes it unlawful for the individual served, or the individual named as the aggressor, to have any form of communication, contact, or surveillance of the protected party named in the restraining order. If a restraining order has been filed against you, turn to The Clark Law Firm for effective legal counsel and representation. Our restraining order attorney can serve as your powerful voice, tenaciously pursuing the most favorable case outcome possible on your behalf. Temporary restraining orders can happen rapidly and are often followed by a hearing on a permanent order.

Commonly Asked Questions

  • Questions

  • How Long Will The Restraining Order Last?

    Answer

    Restraining orders generally last between 6 months to 3 years. The duration of the restraining order filed against you will heavily depend on the specifics of your case and the quality of your legal representation. Our criminal defense attorney can improve your chances of obtaining of a positive case outcome.

  • What Consequences May I Face?

    Answer

    It is a crime to knowingly violate a restraining order. If you violate the protective order, you may be imprisoned, fined or both. If the violation includes injury, the punishment will be more severe.

  • How Do I Contest A Restraining Order?

    Answer

    If you have been served a restraining order, you must take immediate action. If you fail to contest the order, it will be granted and you will not be able to appeal the decision at a later date. In order to contest the order, you must fill out a CH-110 Form or a DV-120 form (depending on the type of protective order filed against you). While these forms are somewhat straightforward, we advise you to enlist the assistance of an attorney. We can ensure all paperwork is properly completed.
