Allen Gabe at Barber Law Offices proudly provides orders of protection for those in need in Schaumburg, IL and the Northwest Suburbs.
Orders of Protection for Domestic Violence
Orders of protection are similar to restraining orders. Unlike restraining orders, they can include a variety of requirements depending on the situation you find yourself in. For some cases, the orders of protection make the assailant oblige to either remain a certain distance away or face legal consequences.
Other forms in which orders of protection are used to provide security include the assailant/harasser to:
• Surrender firearms over to authorities
• Participate in counseling
• Pay child support
• Temporarily lose custody of minor children
• Stay away from the victim’s home, work, school, or property
Obtaining an Order of Protection
To obtain a permanent order of protection, a hearing in which both parties need to be present must take place. In the case of domestic violence taking place, you can request an emergency order of protection that will take place immediately (the opposing party does not need to receive notice). The only negative to this is that emergency orders of protection can only last for 21 days and are short-term solutions.
No matter the case, Allen Gabe at Barber Law Offices will help you through this process. We offer the best advice and make sure you take the route that will provide the most effective outcome for your unique situation. We handle any and all paperwork required to make sure the process gets done in a quick and efficient manner. Lastly, we represent you in a court of law and handle all other actions needed in order for you to receive an order of protection.
