Understanding Protective Orders in Maryland and Virginia

A protective order (often called a restraining order) is a court order designed to protect individuals from domestic abuse, threats, or harassment by a spouse, partner, or household member. These orders can require the abuser to stop contact, vacate a shared home, and stay away from your residence, workplace, or child’s school.

At The Burton Firm , we assist clients in filing and defending against protective orders. We ensure all necessary evidence — such as police reports, medical records, or witness statements — is properly presented to the court. Our firm provides compassionate representation in both domestic violence and family-related protective order hearings.
