Protecting What's Most Important to You
Are you concerned that contact with a certain individual is harmful to you or your child? Are you worried that your soon-to-be former spouse is tampering with marital property that has not yet been divided? In these and many other cases, you can protect your family and your property by filing a protective or restraining order. Unfortunately, determining which type of order you need can be confusing.
At the Law Office of Thomas M. Brasier, we are here to help men and women in the Portland area protect what is most important to them. Call our office at 503-821-7437 or 866-291-8758 to schedule a free consultation.
Understanding the Orders Available
Many people do not understand the difference between a protective order and a restraining order. In Oregon, a protective order is designed to shield someone from abuse. A restraining order, on the other hand, can have varied impacts, including preventing one party in a divorce from disposing of assets or awarding temporary child custody.
If you or your family is in danger, our team can provide assistance by filing for a temporary protective order. When the court grants this order, which is often done the same day, a hearing will be scheduled. We will represent you at the hearing and serve as an information resource, answering any questions that arise.
If you are seeking a restraining order to protect your property or to obtain temporary child custody, we can represent you, too. Our firm will work hard to help you reach your objectives.
