Rabb Wilkerson, and I handle criminal defense and family law matters that affect your safety, freedom and future.
Different Types Of Restraining Orders
Restraining orders (known as protective orders in Georgia) are legal tools used to protect victims of domestic violence by limiting or prohibiting contact with the alleged abuser. Common types include:
- Emergency protective orders issued by police after an arrest
- Temporary protective orders (TROs) that a judge grants quickly
- Permanent or long-term protective orders after a court hearing
- Family violence orders tied to family law cases like divorce or custody
- No-contact orders tied to criminal charges such as sexual assault
Restraining orders and domestic violence charges are serious, with lasting effects. For those accused, charges can bring criminal penalties, fines, jail time, and harm employment, housing and reputation.
