Protective Orders

Atlanta Protective Order Attorney

No one should have to live with, or under the threat of, domestic violence. Georgia law can provide protection for you, your children, and other members of your household.

If you or someone close to you has suffered physical abuse, threats, or intimidating behavior, you can get a temporary protective order (TPO) from a judge in a matter of minutes. The TPO is a civil legal order that forbids the person named in the order from coming near you or your family. If that person violates the order, the police can arrest him or her. Ten to thirty days after the TPO is issued, a hearing for a long-term protective order will be scheduled.

Daniel W. Mitnick & Associates, PC can inform you how to obtain a TPO. We can also represent you in the hearing for the long-term protective order, so that you receive the maximum protection that the law provides.

Call 770-408-7000 for a consultation. Your future and that of your children may be at stake.
