Protective Orders and
Minor Offenses
Protective Orders
Protective orders are court orders to separate people from one another. These are used in situations involving alleged domestic violence, child abuse, assault, harassment, stalking, or sexual assault. Violating a protective order can lead to a criminal charge.
Restraining orders and other protective orders can be requested without telling the other party. If the restraining order or protective order is granted, the other party is allowed to present their side of the story to the court. No matter the side you are on, we can help you face the legal and emotional struggles of a protective order.
Common protective orders include:
- Extreme Risk Protective Orders
- Restraining Orders
- No Contact Provision
- Move Out Provision
- Firearms Provision
- Stay Away Provision
- Peaceful Contact Provision
- Counseling Provision

Minor Offenses
Minor offenses are typically less serious in nature and can include misdemeanors, traffic violations, and civil citations.
The punishment for a minor offense may be a fine, probation, or even imprisonment. No matter the potential punishment, facing a minor offense can be stressful and have an effect on your future.
Common minor offenses may include:
- Public intoxication
- Disorderly conduct
- Reckless driving
- Possession of less than 10 grams of Marijuana
- Driving on a Suspended License
