Civil protection orders are available for situations involving domestic or family violence, sexual assault, stalking, harassment, or child sex grooming. These types of situations can be very dangerous and even result in death.

Taking a step like filing for a protection order can offer a level of safety, but also increase your risk. There are resources available to help you take this step safely. If you wish to request a protection order, please consider seeking help from an advocate. You can find advocate information through the Protection Order E-filing Service.
