Your Safety Is the Priority
A PFA order can prohibit the abuser from contacting you, require them to leave a shared home, and even set temporary custody or support terms. In urgent cases, temporary orders can be issued the same day, providing fast, court-backed protection while a hearing is scheduled.
These protections are not one-size-fits-all. We tailor each case to your specific circumstances—and help ensure the court hears your story with the strength it deserves.
