We offer a variety of legal help and assistance.

• Advocates will help with exploring legal options such as restraining orders and can also provide local legal referrals.

• Advocates are available to accompany survivors during court and mediation proceedings.

Restraining Orders

Your advocate can discuss your options to help you determine if a restraining order would be beneficial. They will help you with filling out the restraining order paperwork to be submitted to the Court. Your advocate may also be available to accompany you to any hearings or other court proceedings.
