Orders of Protection Attorney in Tennessee
What is an Order of Protection?
When a person encounters a situation of domestic violence, domestic abuse, sexual assault, harassment or stalking, an order of protection may help keep them safe. An order of protection is a restraining order granted by law enforcement and the courts that provides legal protection to a person who has been hurt or threatened. In most cases, an abuser will be ordered to stay away from the victim, their place of residence, employment, children and family. In addition to orders of protection, there is another order called a “Social Contact Order of Protection” that allows two people to cohabit together, but disallows for any type of abuse or violence.
