If you are in immediate danger, your first phone call should be to the police. However, if you have been abused, threatened or are in any way fearful of your spouse, and you are looking for a long-term solution, you may need an order of protection.

An order of protection tells your spouse or significant other that he or she may no longer enter the premises and may not threaten or abuse you. If you are already separated from your spouse, but he or she continues to harass or stalk you, an order of protection can help put that to an end. When children are involved, an order of protection can also set up a visitation schedule designed to keep them safe. If you are in a dangerous situation, you need to know that you have options. The attorneys at The Fischer Law Firm can help you with those options and help keep you safe.
