Can I get someone to help me?  Do I need a lawyer?

You do not need a lawyer to get your PFA enforced in another state.

However, you may want to get help from a local domestic violence advocate or attorney in the state that you move to. A domestic violence advocate can let you know what the advantages and disadvantages are for registering your PFA, and help you through the process if you decide to do so.

To find a domestic violence advocate or an attorney in the state you are moving to, please visit the Places that Help page.
