Petitioning for a restraining order against someone
The purpose of a restraining order is to separate two parties, in an effort to cool off the emotions and prevent violent actions that may occur. If you are in a domestic relationship that has become violent or shows signs of leading to violence, a restraining order can serve as a legal safeguard.
Restraining orders can be an important protection against domestic violence. I am family law attorney Lenita Skoretz. Contact my office in Redlands, California, to learn more about obtaining a restraining order for your protection. I will explain the process and help you get the protections put in place that could save your life.
If you are defending yourself against a restraining order
I understand the damage that domestic assault can do to an abused spouse and family members. Domestic violence is a terrible tragedy for millions of people in America and I take it seriously.
But restraining orders cut both ways. They are often used as a mechanism of revenge and animosity in relationships that have gone sour. Having a restraining order placed against you can mean that you will not be allowed any contact with your children, often for months. In divorce cases involving a bitter custody battle, accusing a spouse of domestic violence and petitioning for a restraining order is a frequent ploy to gain the favor of the judge and jury.
