Police officers responding to domestic violence calls sometimes request these to give abuse victims time to get a temporary or permanent restraining order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Temporary_Restraining_Orders\"><\/span>Temporary Restraining Orders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A temporary restraining order (TRO) protects the length of a hearing seeking a permanent restraining order. The TRO ends once the hearing is over and the permanent restraining order is granted \u2013 or denied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Domestic_Violence_Restraining_Orders\"><\/span>Domestic Violence Restraining Orders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/selfhelp.courts.ca.gov\/DV-restraining-order\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According to the California courts<\/a>, \"A <a href=\"https:\/\/hurwitzlawgroup.com\/los-angeles-restraining-order-attorney\/domestic-violence\/\">domestic violence restraining order<\/a> is against someone you've dated or had an intimate relationship with, including a spouse or domestic partner.\" It can be granted against someone who has abused you or your children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Civil_Harassment_Restraining_Orders\"><\/span>Civil Harassment Restraining Orders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A civil harassment restraining order is against someone you don't have a close relationship with.

This includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:3px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Filing_the_Necessary_Paperwork\"><\/span>Filing the Necessary Paperwork<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As your legal representative, we gather all the documents to file the specific restraining order you need and file them on your behalf. Our team is experienced in all types of legal document filing and knows exactly what documents to select, how to complete them accurately, and which department to file them with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Attending_Court_Hearings\"><\/span>Attending Court Hearings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You must talk with the judge before you can get a permanent restraining order. During the hearing, the person you are filing for protection from also gets a chance to speak. Standing before a judge and explaining your situation is difficult for anyone, especially abuse victims. But with our attorney by your side, you don't have to go through the process alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Serving_the_Restraining_Order_to_the_Respondent\"><\/span>Serving the Restraining Order to the Respondent<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you get a court date, getting the papers served to the other party as soon as possible is important. Once they have been notified of the restraining order, if they break it, they can be arrested. Most of the time, the sheriff serves the papers. But you can have someone else serve the documents if they are over 18 and not part of your case. We can discuss the serving of documents with you and move forward with a plan to serve them that you are comfortable with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Consequences_for_Violating_a_Restraining_Order_in_Los_Angeles\"><\/span>Consequences for Violating a Restraining Order in Los Angeles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Violating a restraining order can have serious legal consequences. There are civil and criminal restraining orders, each with different consequences for violation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Violating a civil restraining order can lead to fines and possible jail time. Violating a criminal restraining order carries more substantial punishments, including up to six months in jail for each violation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The punishments for violating a restraining order are serious because such orders are vital to protect abuse victims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_You_Should_Respond_to_a_Restraining_Order\"><\/span>How You Should Respond to a Restraining Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hurwitzlawgroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/5fb000ba-c7c8-4681-856e-9218a830f209.png\" alt=\"How you should respond to a restraining order\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We encourage you to contact our law firm immediately if you have been served with a restraining order. As stated above, <a href=\"https:\/\/hurwitzlawgroup.com\/blog\/violating-restraining-order-california\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"39\">violating such an order can have serious legal<\/a> ramifications.

Defending against a false restraining order takes discipline, time, and expert guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we said before, the first thing to do is contact an attorney. Once you have told us your story, we will lay out the guidelines for defending yourself. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Follow the instructions in the order strictly. <\/strong>The courts have the power to hurt or help your situation. The last thing you want to do is upset the court by ignoring or defying its orders to you.
