Protect Yourself From Severe Consequences
A restraining order has serious complications for individuals. You may be barred from entering your home or seeing your children. It may also impact the outcome of a divorce. In addition to the personal toll it takes on your life, you may find yourself facing criminal charges as well. That is why it is important to hire an experienced Boston-area criminal defense attorney to protect your rights and your future.
Restraining Orders Are Issued in a Number of Situations
A person may find himself or herself on the receiving end of a restraining order in a number of different situations, including allegations of:
- Domestic violence
- Assault and battery
- Child abuse
- Sexual abuse
- Threats or stalking
These orders are often granted as the result of false allegations. Even if the allegations are false, you will need legal representation. A restraining order is often issued as an emergency. After it is entered, you will have the opportunity to answer to the allegations in an extended hearing. You should have an attorney from S. De Oliveira Law, LLC, present at this hearing, as anything you say will be held against you. Above all, refrain from any contact with the person who requested the order, as a violation may lead to a long prison sentence.
