Protection Order Lawyer Serving Fairfield And The Surrounding Communities
At the law office of Eric L. Anderson, LLC, we help victims of domestic violence obtain protection orders that stop abuse and prevent violence from occurring in the future. In Ohio, protection orders — commonly referred to as restraining orders — provide individuals with protection against physical and emotional abuse and threatened violence. Individuals can also obtain temporary protection orders (TPOs) that stop abuse immediately and protect them until a protection order hearing can be held.
Protection order hearings are akin to mini trials; both parties will have the opportunity to testify, evidence can be presented and witnesses may testify. If found guilty of domestic violence, judges may order a protection order that lasts up to five years.
Protect Yourself Against False Abuse Allegations
If you have been accused of domestic violence, a protection order will have a significant impact on your life. A protection order may interfere with or eliminate your parenting time and prevent you from maintaining strong ties with your children. In addition, a protection order will restrict your ability to own or possess firearms and may put your job in jeopardy.
If you are at risk of having a protection order issued against you, you need an experienced, knowledgeable attorney to protect your interests. For more than 15 years, attorney Eric Anderson has been defending clients during restraining order hearings. Together we will prove that the allegations are false, that the act was done in self defense or that the alleged victim had reasons to fabricate the allegations.
If you or your child has been the victim of abuse, or you have been accused of committing an act of domestic violence, we can help. Contact Cincinnati domestic violence attorney Eric Anderson at (513) 360-4935. Initial consultations are free.
