The Issuance of Temporary Restraining Orders

Helping Clients Gain Protection from Domestic Violence in San Diego Since 1994

When a person with whom you're in a relationship with harms you or your child, or threatens harm, you don't have the luxury of time. You need immediate protection.

In California, temporary restraining orders can provide the fast protection you need. How? Through a temporary restraining order hearing, you can obtain protection immediately; the judge can grant a temporary restraining order based on your testimony alone.

The lawyers of the family law firm of Naimish & Lewis have helped hundreds of clients with obtaining a temporary restraining order in San Diego and gain the legal protection they need following domestic abuse, child abuse, child molestation and other forms of domestic violence. Do you need protection from a:

• Spouse?
• Former spouse?
• Cohabitant/house mate or former cohabitant?
• Person you have been dating?
• Person with whom you're engaged?
• Person with whom you've had a child?

We can complete your request and arrange for your temporary restraining order hearing, then provide guidance and representation through the temporary and permanent hearings. .

We see you through the Temporary Protection hearing to the Permanent Protection Hearing

Temporary restraining orders are usually effective for about 25 days, at which point a permanent restraining order must be pursued at a permanent restraining order hearing. In this hearing, the alleged perpetrator has the option of testifying and contesting the petition. Permanent restraining order hearings require a great deal of preparation and investigation, including the gathering of statements and reports and the interviewing of witnesses.
