Restraining Orders
At WCN, we are large enough to have expertise in many law practices including family law, while small enough to deliver exceptional service through a personalized, concierge approach. We serve clients in Massachusetts with our primary office in Wellesley, MA and additional offices in Chelmsford and Boston.
Restraining Orders
Our family law attorneys act quickly in the case of protecting clients from physical or sexual harm by getting a restraining order in place. Restraining orders protect an individual from a family member or household member. Unfortunately, restraining orders also are sometimes used strategically in divorce and custody cases; we have proven track records of defending our clients against spurious applications for restraining orders.
Harassment Prevention Orders
Harassment prevention orders protect an individual from stalking, harassment or sexual assault. The family law attorneys at WCN assist clients in filing the required documents with the court to establish a harassment prevention order.
