Sacramento Domestic Violence Attorney

If issues relating to domestic violence threaten to tear apart your family — take action to protect yourself and the people you love most.

At the Law Office of Maida V. Farrar in Roseville, we help families deal with these difficult issues. We can help you obtain a restraining order that can protect you and your family members from threats of violence. We also represent clients who have been accused of domestic violence.

Obtaining a Restraining Order

Every family that deals with domestic violence concerns faces different challenges. We will act quickly to develop a plan aimed at keeping your family safe.

You can get a temporary order on your own. If you need advice about how to go about doing this, call us at 916-660-5413 and we can help. After the temporary order has been granted, we will represent you in the hearing that will be scheduled within a few weeks of the issuance of the temporary order.

In this hearing, we can present evidence to the court that supports your petition for a restraining order, as well as a removal order (kick-out order) if that is necessary.

Contesting a Restraining Order

In a domestic dispute, one of the parties may make false or exaggerated claims of domestic violence in order to gain an advantage. The issuance of a restraining order against a person can have serious implications, particularly in regard to child custody and visitation rights. By contesting your restraining order, you can go a long way in protecting your future parental rights.

Maida V. Farrar will vigorously defend your rights in the restraining order hearing. If it is not possible to avoid the issuance of an order, it may be possible to obtain a mitigated outcome.
