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.

Ben's a dedicated and efficient attorney. He's handled a few cases for me, and each time he lays out a goal and accomplishes it. He kept me informed on my cases and quickly answered any questions I had. Could not be more pleased … More with his service.

Great lawyer, was not overpriced and was even willing to work with me on payments. Very honest and hard working. Ben works for his clients not his clients money.

Ben has helped me with several different legal issues over the years. I appreciate his honesty in certain situations when making decisions in my best interest. He is quick to respond to voice mails, emails, etc and always makes you feel … More like your his only client. His legal fees are extremely reasonable and let me create a payment plan to him when needed. I highly recommend him for legal counsel.

I hope you never need a lawyer, but if you do, you want Ben Aranda.Why do I say that?* He returned phone calls and emails (yes, really!).* He listened attentively until he knew what was important – and he efficiently culled the rest so … More I didn’t pay for wasted time.* He is brilliant – incredible with strategy, case law, and writing arguments if you ask me. Even when I was most frightened (and lawsuits ARE scary), he inspired confidence that I was in the best possible hands.* He’s direct, realistic, and meticulous – and he has a remarkable memory.* He kept me informed and focused throughout the process.* His prices are more than fair.* And oh-by-the-way: He’s a nice guy.Like I say, I hope you don’t ever need him, but if you do: Get first dibs.You don’t want him at the other team’s table.

My family used Ben for a step-parent adoption. I could not be happier with our choice in representation. Ben made it seamless to get things done, made every step easy to understand, and got everything completed in a timely manner, even … More during COVID. He was always there to answer any questions we had and was never annoyed with my follow ups. Our family will forever be grateful for Ben’s hard work and getting this done for our family.

Ben is a amazing person. I met him in a bad point in my life when my original divorce attorney got disbarred. And literally met ben the day of my divorce trial. My divorce still ended up a diaster but I can honestly say it was no fault … More of bens. He actually had my back in several other cases through the next few years and did great and let me make affordable payment plans. I would recommend Aranda Law firm to anyone in need of a great attorney......Thanks Ben

He's very easy to talk with and he personally kept in constant communication with me-I never had to speak with an assistant or secretary. His pricing was reasonable for an attorney and he didn't stop until we received the results … More I wanted with my custody case. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again!

We hired Ben for a contractor that screwed us out of thousands of dollars. We knew contracts are not Ben's main focus but we heard great things about him, both online and referrals. We took a shot and very happy we did. We recouped … More thousands the contractor stole from us, in cash! It wasn't everything but a very large portion. His fee was extremely fair and for this, we HIGHLY reccomend him!!

My case was complicated and very unusual. Actually, I was afraid I would not be able to find anyone to take my case. I met with Ben and he accepted my case with confidence which was quite comforting. He took immediate action to have an … More unjustified withholding temporarily stopped. The final judgement was exactly what I had hoped for and I even had money returned to me by the state. Ben's billing was accurate and not exaggerated. I will recommend everyone I can to The Aranda Law Firm! It was much better in many ways than the highly advertised, local family law firm I previously retained!! Go Ben!!
