30 attorneys in San Diego work on domestic violence matters — obtaining and defending domestic violence restraining orders, and representing people charged with domestic battery or violating an order.
In California these proceed in parallel: a restraining order is a civil matter in the San Diego County Superior Court, often granted on a temporary basis within a day and set for a contested hearing weeks later, while any criminal charge runs separately. Evidence given in one is available in the other.
An order carries firearm restrictions, can affect custody and, for service members and people holding clearances, may have career consequences. If you are in immediate danger, contact emergency services first.
