Glendale Orders of Protection

Family Lawyer in Glendale

When an individual is at risk of harm, it is necessary to take legal action to restrict the violent individual from being able to hurt, attack, abuse or harm the victim further. When this is the case, a Glendale family lawyer from Law Offices of Dabbah & Haddad can help. These orders of protection are very important, and in serious cases can protect families and children from very serious injury, child abuse, and violent behavior. Many of these cases are related to a bitter divorce battle, and the violence can escalate and be extremely dangerous. An order of protection, or restraining order, makes it illegal for the abuser or violent person to come into contact with the victims, either in person, by phone, mail or other means until the matter is fully resolved. In cases of spousal abuse this action should be taken immediately.
