Salt Lake City Restraining Order Violation Lawyer

Have You Been Charged With Violating a Protection Order?

Did you run into your estranged spouse or ex-boyfriend/girlfriend at a parent-teacher conference, a coffee shop or a shopping mall? Did that accidental meeting trigger a chain reaction and now you are facing criminal charges for violation of a protection order?

Maybe you called or emailed your child’s parent because you needed to change plans regarding visitation. A vindictive ex can use that telephone or computer communication to charge you with violation of a restraining order.

Maybe your ex saw someone who “looked like you” drive by the house, or attributed hang-up phone calls to you. Now it’s his/her word against yours. It may be an exaggeration or a complete fabrication, but regardless of how unfair it is, your rights and freedom are now at risk.
