San Diego Restraining Order Attorney

Defense Counsel for Restraining Orders in San Diego County

Have you been served a restraining order?  This can have numerous negative effects on you now and in the future. You may be prohibited from contacting or coming within a certain distance of the alleged victim, and this means that you may not be able to go certain places that you normally go or visit mutual friends if the victim is present. You may be prohibited from seeing your children in some cases as well. After being served a restraining order, you may have to move out the home you and the alleged victim share, even if you pay the rent or the mortgage.

When restraining orders are sought for frivolous purposes or are based upon entirely false allegations, this hurts everyone involved. It also harms real victims of domestic violence, harassment and stalking.

We provide aggressive, knowledgeable defense to clients who would like to contest their restraining orders, or who have been charged with violating a restraining order.

Challenging a Restraining Order

A person named in a restraining order has the right to contest its validity in a court hearing. However, you must file a response and follow a specific procedure in order to do this, so it is important to work with a lawyer who can help you through the process. Additionally, you will need legal representation in the hearing to have the opportunity to successfully challenge the order and have it dismissed so you can get your life back.
