FORT COLLINS
ORDERS OF PROTECTION LAWYERS

Understand your right to feel secure

Everyone has the right to feel safe. Whether you are at home or out in public, you should feel confident in your security at all times. This is a fundamental human right.

Unfortunately, this is not always the case. If you feel threatened, intimidated, or otherwise unsafe because of the actions of another individual, it is essential to understand that you have rights. The law does not tolerate harmful behavior.

One of the first things you can do to regain your feeling of safety is getting an order of protection, also called a restraining order, against the person hurting you. These legal papers help document what you have already been through and prevent further abuse or mistreatment.

HOW JOHNSON LAW GROUP CAN HELP

Here at Johnson Law Group, we help individuals seek orders of protection against those who wish them harm. We believe this is an essential legal service that all victims should have easy access to.

Our attorneys are well-known in the community for providing exemplary, individualized law advice. We are dedicated to helping the people of Colorado with any of their family law needs.

Our experience in family law is extremely valuable for obtaining protection orders. Unfortunately, many people seek a protective order because of domestic violence. Because we deal with all areas of family law, we can help you turn your protective order into a divorce, the right to child custody, permanent protection, and more.

Many people have heard of protective orders/restraining orders but don’t know what they entail. Orders of protection act as a first line of defense against an individual who has exhibited predatory behavior. This behavior can include:

  • Physical violence such as hitting, punching, kicking, rape, or sexual assault
  • Emotional violence such as manipulation, yelling, demeaning, or gaslighting
  • Threats of violence
  • Intimidation
  • Entrapment
  • Stalking

In instances of domestic violence, physical and emotional violence are most common. These offenses can all significantly threaten an individual’s sense of peace and security.

A protective order keeps the abuser from coming within a certain proximity (generally 500 feet) of their victim. This limits the harm they can create and usually keeps the abuse from occurring.

Though protective orders are not foolproof, they can provide a significant amount of security. They require a statement from the victim, which creates a record of past wrongdoing that can be accessed if they decide to press charges or file for divorce. Furthermore, if the abuser violates the protective order, automatic legal action can be taken against them; they may be arrested or detained by police.

    “They worked tirelessly on my case and the outcome was exactly what I expected!”
    I was in a very difficult custody/child support dispute with my ex-spouse. The Johnson law Group and in particular Elizabeth Gregory was phenomenal with their representation of my case. Working with her was such a wonderful experience, kept our goals at the top of every conversation, knew all points and avenues that we could take, never lead us in the wrong direction. I would recommend this firm to anyone who is going through a family law issue.

    “I can’t say thank you enough for what y’all did for me!!!!!”
    This review nor a amount a amount of characters can express how grateful I am for Johnson law. From the moment I called they gave me a peace of mind that they where going to be able to help me through my child custody situation. I worked with Yasaman and she was super professional and caring. From the moment she started working on my case and laid down the road map to our approach to my case it happened to a tee. She never misled me or over promises anything but over delivered every step of the way! The last 6 months would of been hell if it wasn’t for Johnson Law and Yasaman.

My questions were always answered in a timely manner and the process was so easy. I would absolutely recommend the Johnson Law Group to anyone reading this and I will be telling anyone I know, that may also need their services. They will treat you right and be in your corner.
