Virginia Protective Orders

How can I obtain a Protective Order in Virginia?

It is situational. Where you can seek a protective order is determined by what kind of relationship you have (or previously had) with the person who is harming or threatening you. If that person is a relative or household member (as specified on the following page), you may seek a protective order against family abuse through your local Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court intake office. You may also petition the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court for a protective order if either the petitioner (one seeking the protective order) or the respondent (individual committing acts of violence or threatening behavior) is under the age of 18. Additional information can be obtained through the intake office staff.

All other applications for protection orders that do not fall under the category of family or household member (including, but not limited to, dating or same-sex partners who do not live together) are made in the General District Court. If you live in any of the counties listed in the state of Virginia and want additional information, it’s available by contacting David A.C. Long’s attorneys for a consultation that can answer any questions you may have.

    David Long Virginia Criminal Defense Lawyer We highly recommend David Long...a wonderful and extremely competent attorney! - by Jill, March 31, 2018
    5/ 5stars
    As an out of state mom worried about my kid, I took a chance with David Long and so grateful that I did. My son got a speeding ticket in VA, as all state laws are different; in VA this is reckless driving and a possible Misdemeanor. He was very professional with the confidence and kindness I was looking for. My son and I were truly grateful. My son walked away without reckless driving and no misdemeanor. We highly recommend David Long..... a wonderful and extremely competent attorney.
