The Early Days After Being Served Matter 

One of the biggest mistakes people make after being served with a 50B Domestic Violence Protective Order is assuming they have time to sort everything out later. In reality, the days leading up to the hearing often shape how the case develops.

This is the time to understand exactly what the order requires, avoid actions that could make the situation worse, and begin preparing your response with experienced legal guidance. An ex parte protective order takes effect immediately, even though you have not yet had the opportunity to appear before the court.

Attorney Wilkie begins reviewing the allegations, gathering relevant communications, identifying witnesses, and preserving evidence that may help present a more complete picture of what occurred.

Text messages, emails, photographs, social media activity, phone records, and other documentation can become important depending on the circumstances of the case. Collecting that information early is often easier than trying to locate it days later.
