Protective Order Lawyers in Burleson & Fort Worth, TX

Protective orders are civil, not criminal, orders that protect you from harm.

Texas law offers a solution for people who feel unsafe in the presence of another household member. Protective orders are civil, not criminal, orders that protect you from harm at the hand of that family or household member. They are useful in dealing with a variety of domestic issues, including harassment, threatening actions, abusive behavior, drug use, or problems arising from mental illness.

Protective orders are flexible: they can order the other person to stay away from you or to refrain from unwanted behaviors. They may also instruct the offender to attend parenting classes, get a mental health assessment, submit to drug testing and evaluation, or attend anger management counseling.
