Fighting a Protective Order in Virginia
Can You Remove a Protective Order?
Having a protective order placed against you is a serious legal matter which can have far-reaching consequences. Besides prohibiting certain contact with the individual who issued the protective order against you, a protective order will show up on criminal background checks. Additionally, while the protective order is in effect, you will not be able to possess a firearm.
The Law Offices of Daniel J. Miller represents clients who are facing charges of domestic violence. Whether a protective order has been unfairly placed against you, or whether you have been accused of violating a protective order, we can help. Reach out to a defense attorney today.
