Whether you need protection from abuse or are facing false allegations, we provide experienced, compassionate representation in all domestic violence restraining order matters.
Domestic Violence Restraining Orders under California Family Code § 6200 have serious, lasting consequences. Whether you need protection or are defending against allegations, we provide strategic representation.
File for emergency Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs) and represent you at hearings to secure permanent orders lasting up to 5 years protecting you and your children.
Get Protection →Challenge baseless claims at DVRO hearings. We expose inconsistencies, present counter-evidence, and protect you from orders that threaten custody and gun rights.
Fight False Claims →Request modifications under Family Code § 6345 when circumstances change. Adjust stay-away distances, visitation terms, or other provisions affecting your life.
Modify Terms →Address the rebuttable presumption against custody under Family Code § 3044. Protect your parental rights and develop safe visitation arrangements.
Protect Custody →California law requires firearm surrender with DVROs. We work to terminate orders early or prevent firearm restrictions when possible under Penal Code § 29825.
Restore Rights →Immediate response to emergency situations. Represent you at ex parte hearings when temporary orders are issued without notice, typically within 24 hours.
Emergency Help →DVROs affect custody, firearms, employment, immigration status, and housing. You need attorneys who understand California's complex restraining order laws.
Deep knowledge of California Family Code §§ 6200-6409 governing DVROs. We understand burden of proof, admissible evidence, and successful defense strategies.
Expert knowledge of what qualifies as "abuse" under the Domestic Violence Prevention Act - physical harm, sexual assault, threats, harassment, stalking, or disturbing peace.
Skilled at gathering and presenting texts, emails, photos, medical records, police reports, and witness testimony that judges find compelling under California Evidence Code.
Effective cross-examination exposing lies, inconsistencies, and ulterior motives. We challenge credibility and reveal the truth at DVRO hearings.
Practice across Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside, and San Bernardino. We know local judges, procedures, and what works in each courthouse.
Protect you from secondary impacts: immigration consequences under VAWA, professional licensing issues, security clearances, and employment barriers.
Strategic representation from filing through final hearing, protecting your rights at every stage under California law.
Review the DV-100 petition and any TRO granted ex parte. Analyze allegations for inconsistencies, evaluate evidence, and develop your defense or petition strategy within hours.
Gather texts, emails, recordings, photos, medical records, and police reports. Prepare witness declarations (DV-110). Develop testimony that meets California's preponderance of evidence standard.
Aggressive advocacy at the noticed hearing (typically 15-21 days after TRO). Present evidence, examine witnesses, make legal arguments, and fight for dismissal or issuance based on your needs.
If order granted: file modifications, request early termination, or appeal. If defending successfully: ensure dismissal is complete. Assist with CLETS database removal and firearm restoration.
