Orders of Protection

Orders of protection, commonly known as “restraining orders”, are intended to protect victims of abuse, stalking, or harassment by requiring perpetrators to stay a certain distance away for a specified period of time. Such orders are primarily used by victims of domestic violence, however, are also used in a variety of other circumstances, including in relation to a child. These processes often carry very serious consequences. The extremely complex nature of these cases bring with them a variety of questions including:

What constitutes stalking?
How long do I have to wait before filing an order of protection?
What should I do if someone has alleged I have done something to them or their child?
How can I alert the proper authorities of a case of neglect/abuse to my child?
How long does an order of protection take effect?
What happens if the violator breaks the rules of an order of protection?

If you have an order of protection case, it is not a process that you should navigate on your own. It is essential that you contact the Aranda Law Firm at the very earliest stages of this process so that we can provide you with the knowledge needed to end the process as soon as possible.

Mr. Aranda is an outstanding attorney and a really great human being. If you are looking for someone to represent you that is true to their word, actually cares about you and your situation, and will FIGHT FOR YOU, Aranda Law is the right … More place for you! Mr. Aranda took my case when no one else would, helped me retrieve extremely valuable property that had been seized, and then stood by me to go after money I was owed, even though he knew it would be a very tough fight. I would not hesitate to recommend Aranda Law Firm to anyone who needs not only legal help, but needs to feel heard and understood as well.

Ben guided me throughout a process that should have been intensely difficult, but it never crossed that line thanks to his service. Legal processes can be intimidating, but Ben made me feel taken care of from the beginning and he proved … More that he had my best interest in mind. He showed the utmost respect for my situation and provided helpful information and feedback for the decisions I had to make. Ben went above and beyond to help me and I cannot thank him enough for this!
