Protective Orders
What is a Protective Order?
A Protective Order is a court-issued legal order that may order an abuser not to contact you, abuse you, harass you, or visit your home or workplace. It may also provide for temporary child custody or support.
To see if you qualify for a protective order please visit the Utah State Courts website: https://www.utcourts.gov/en/self-help/case-categories/protect-order.html or call Timpanogos Legal Center for free legal advice: https://www.timplegal.org/
