Restraining Order Defense Lawyers Lewisville

Filing for Protective Orders in Texas

Protective orders are often necessary when family violence has occurred and is likely to continue. Sometimes called restraining orders, they provide protection against family violence by preventing the abuser from visiting or communicating with the victims.

If immediate action is needed to protect your family's welfare, we are prepared to pursue legal action to protect you and your family. The first step is to obtain a temporary ex parte protective order, which will immediately place enforceable legal conditions on the abuser's activity. Within 14 days, the court will hold a hearing and consider evidence to determine if a permanent protective order should be imposed.

Restraining orders can be used to prevent problems other than family violence, including harassment, threats and stalking. Clients of Julian, Crowder & Shuster, P.C. are most often the individuals in need of protection. But we also defend individuals who are facing the imposition of a permanent order. We will fight to protect your rights.

If you are going through a divorce or child custody modification and relocation proceedings and feel a need for protection, contact a family law attorney who is ready to take action immediately and help you obtain a temporary protective order.
