ORDER OF PROTECTION
Issues of domestic violence, abuse, threats (to both person and property), and/or stalking can fall under the purview of an order of protection. Oftentimes these cases come in tandem with divorce filings and can have a lasting impact on your life and reputation. If you have been a victim of domestic violence or have been accused of being a perpetrator, contact a legal professional immediately.
