Our Melbourne based lawyers can assist you in applying for a personal safety intervention order or an intervention order.
This order can be made by a magistrate to protect you from physical or mental harm caused by someone who is not your family member, such as a former friend or neighbour, or a family member.
This process will begin when the police serve you with the copies of the application, summons and any interim orders made.
You will be provided with a court hearing date and it is then important that you obtain legal advice because an order may affect your rights.
