Salt Lake City Restraining Order Violation Lawyer

Utah Order of Protection Violation Attorney

Have You Been Charged with Violation of a Protection Order?

Even an accidental meeting can trigger charges of a protection order violation. You may have been accused of violating the protection order that your estranged wife or husband requested based on the fact that you ran into each other at parent-teacher conferences for your child.

Your ex-wife or ex-husband may have reported that you violated a stalking injunction through phone calls, email messages or text messages.

False Charges?

Or you may have been the target of blatantly false charges — perhaps an attempt to "punish" you or interfere with child custody and visitation negotiations.

You may have been reported after your ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend saw someone drive by who "looked like you" after requesting a protection order. Now it is her or his word against yours — it may be unfair, it may be an exaggeration or fabrication — but your rights may be at risk.

Not Fair?

However unjust they may seem, you have to take any stalking charges, domestic violence charges, child abuse allegations or protection order violation allegations seriously. You should seek the high-caliber counsel and representation that you deserve. Jail time, penalties and a criminal record may be your reward if you do not meet this challenge in a timely manner.

At the law offices of Greg Smith and Steven Russell, Criminal Law Attorneys, we have your best interests in mind at all times — both short-term and long-term. If there is an economical way to resolve your legal matter, we will recommend that route. If we believe you need to take more extensive and aggressive actions in response to the threat to your freedom, we will see to it that you fully understand your options.

Strategies designed to protect your rights and restore you to a normal way of life after you have been charged with a protection order violation may include the following:

  • Interviewing witnesses
  • Arranging to post bail
  • Pressing law enforcement or the prosecution to prove the allegations against you — which may be impossible to do when you did not commit the reported offense

We are here to offer those who need our advocacy the benefit of our experience, understanding and service. We regularly advise other attorneys, and our opinions have been aired on Good Morning America and publicized in national newspapers such as USA Today.
