New Jersey takes domestic violence very seriously, offering legal protection through restraining orders. Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs) provide immediate protection, often granted ex parte (without the abuser present) in emergency situations. Final restraining orders (FROs) offer longer-term protection after a court hearing. Our attorneys can guide you through the restraining order process, ensuring your safety and advocating for the most appropriate order for your circumstances.

Protection Beyond Domestic Violence
The Victim's Assistance and Survivor Protection Act (VASPA) expands protection to victims of stalking and cyber-harassment. Our attorneys have experience applying VASPA to secure Restraining Orders in these situations, ensuring your safety and peace of mind.
