Violent crimes involve the use of force (with or without a weapon) to inflict harm on another person. In many cases, the people involved in these types of crimes have a personal relationship and therefore the crimes are considered Domestic Violence.

There are often family considerations and emotional issues in domestic violence cases in addition to a criminal charge. Because of the sensitivity of these types of crimes, it is critical that you seek help from a trusted and reputable violent crimes defense lawyer.

Our experienced restraining order violation defense lawyers at Birdsall Obear & Associates have handled hundreds of domestic violence cases. Please contact our violent crimes attorneys by email or phone to schedule a free consultation.

Restraining and no contact orders are regularly issued in domestic violence cases.

Essentially, the goal of these orders is to prevent any contact between the two conflicting parties. If you are subject to one of these orders, you should take it extremely seriously. This includes contact that is by phone, mail, email, text, or through a 3rd party.

Any violation of the order, even if the other person wants you to come over and visit, will be taken seriously and will expose you to further prosecution of charges such as violating the order or bail jumping. Remember that it is your life on the line, not the life of the other person. If the other person wants to visit, you say no. If you see them on the street, cross the street and avoid them. Do not answer their calls or respond to any emails or texts. The other person is more than capable of going to court to get the order lifted if that is what he or she wants.

What is the penalty for violation of a retraining order?

Violating the terms of a temporary restraining order is a misdemeanor.  The maximum punishment is 9 months in jail, a $1,000.00 fine, or both.
