Defense for Restraining Orders and Orders of Protection in New York

A restraining order, often called an order of protection in New York, is a court order that is meant to protect victims of domestic violence, abuse and stalking. A restraining order may prohibit the person named as the abuser from contacting the alleged victim in any way, from coming within a certain distance of the alleged victim or from continuing harassment or abuse. A restraining order may also decide such issues as child custody or child support, depending on the situation.

Being faced with a restraining order is a serious situation. You may be in danger of being prohibited from seeing your spouse or children.
