What Can a Domestic Violence Protective Order Do?

The purpose of a domestic violence protective order is to prohibit the violent party from contacting you or coming in proximity with you or your child. This may include visiting your home, work, and any other place you frequent. In most cases, a protective order includes any form of communication, so the perpetrator is also required to cease any electronic or phone communication. In some cases, a protective order of this nature can award you temporary child custody or limit child visitation.
