Deep understanding of what qualifies as "harassment" under California Code of Civil Procedure § 527.6: unlawful violence, credible threats, or course of conduct causing substantial emotional distress.
Civil harassment requires higher burden than DVROs. We build cases meeting "clear and convincing evidence" standard through documentation, patterns, and credible testimony.
Expert at preserving and presenting digital evidence: screenshots, metadata, IP addresses, location data, and social media posts admissible under California Evidence Code.
Respondents often claim contact served legitimate purpose. We prove harassment served NO legitimate purpose or was excessive beyond any legitimate need.
Proving "course of conduct" requires showing pattern over time. We organize incidents chronologically, demonstrate escalation, and prove willful and malicious intent.
Unlike DVROs, civil harassment orders don't automatically prohibit firearms unless violence or credible threats proven. We understand these distinctions and their implications.
