When should I consider filing a protective order against another person in Indiana?

by | Jan 6, 2023 | Criminal Law, Family Law

A protective order is a legal document that is issued by a court in Indiana to protect a person from being harmed or threatened by another individual. There are several reasons why you may want to file a protective order against someone in Indiana, including:

To protect you from physical harm: If you have been the victim of physical abuse or violence, you may want to file a protective order to prevent the abuser from coming near you or causing harm in the future.

To protect you from emotional abuse or harassment: If you have been subjected to emotional abuse or harassment, you may want to file a protective order to prevent the abuser from contacting you or making threats.

To protect your children: If you have children and are worried about their safety, you may want to file a protective order to prevent the abuser from coming near the children or causing harm to them.

To prevent stalking: If you have been the victim of stalking, you may want to file a protective order to prevent the stalker from coming near you or contacting you.

Filing a protective order is an important way for you to protect yourself and your loved ones from harm and abuse. It is a legal document that can help to keep the abuser away and can provide you a sense of security knowing the legal system will intervene if the abuser violates the order.
