Restraining Orders … Only When Necessary

Restraining orders can be an absolute necessity when a family is threatened by violence from another family member. They should be used when — and only when — violence is an issue. If you need a restraining order or if you have been served with one, talk to an attorney at The Family Law Firm in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Restraining orders exist for the protection of people who have been threatened by domestic violence. They are not for the purpose of getting an extra advantage in a child custody or divorce case.

• Restraining orders for real victims: At our law firm, we care deeply about the clients we serve and their families. If you have reason to fear for your safety or the safety of your children, talk to a lawyer about a restraining order. We will take quick and effective action on your behalf.
• Overturning invalid orders: If you have been unfairly served with a restraining order, our attorneys are ready and willing to litigate the matter in court. When a restraining order is used inappropriately, it is an abuse of the legal system that can force someone out of the home with as little as 10 minutes' notice. If you have been falsely accused, tell your lawyer immediately.
