Clearwater Restraining Orders: Protect Your Rights Today

Experienced Domestic Violence Defense Attorneys in Clearwater, St. Pete, & New Port Richey

Emotions can run high in marriages, romantic relationships, and even between close family members. Personal relationships are extremely complex and to an outsider, a little fight could be taken way out of context. The fear of domestic violence can also lead to false accusations or arrests. If you have been arrested for domestic violence and a restraining order has been taken out on you, it is important that you act quickly to retain legal counsel.

Understanding When Restraining Orders Are Filed

Restraining orders are typically filed in cases of domestic violence or when an individual feels their life is in imminent danger. A restraining order, also known as an injunction for protection can be temporary or permanent, and lead to serious consequences.

At Tinny, Meyer & Piccarreto, P.A., we understand these situations are not as simple as they seem. Our Clearwater criminal defense attorneys are extremely knowledgeable about what to expect after a restraining order has been filed. We can ensure you are aware of your rights, as well as what to expect until the situation has been resolved.

If a permanent injunction for protection is entered against you, you may be required to:

  • Participate in a batterer’s intervention program
  • Surrender any weapons, firearms, and ammunition
  • Have no direct or indirect contact with the petitioner or your children
  • Be required to move from your residence
  • Have restricted or no visitation with your children

Being the respondent in an injunction for protection can also affect other important areas of your life, including your employment and civil liberties. Our firm has represented many clients who have faced domestic violence charges and dealt with the aftermath of restraining orders being filed against them.

Hear From Past Clients
  • “Mr. Piccarreto is a excellent lawyer”
    Mr. Piccarreto is a excellent lawyer and knows exactly what he is doing when it came to my very complicated divorce. It involved two countries with properties in both and the price was unbelievable as it was three times LESS than the first family lawyer I hired and fired. His expertise was impeccable and especially superb when we got to the judge. My divorce was granted within weeks of our first meeting and could have been soon only for my X dragging his feet. His legal assistant, Lauren was beyond reproach and if I was A lawyer I would steal her away from him. She is capable of doing ten different things at one time and never makes an error with tons of paperwork to do. I was in a terrible condition when getting my divorce but the people in this firm made it look like we were walking on water. Thank you all.
