WomensLaw is not just for women. We serve and support all survivors, no matter their sex or gender.
This is a court order that protects you from someone who is harassing you who you are not related to, married to, intimately involved with, or live/d with. (For those relationships, you would have to apply for a domestic violence order of protection.) If you are not eligible for a domestic violence order of protection, you may qualify for an injunction against harassment (IAH).
