Abuse is a sensitive and serious topic. In this article, our Naperville domestic abuse attorneys explain how abuse is defined by law and the purpose of an Order of Protection.
An Order of Protection is created to protect the petitioner or another party from abuse from a family or household member. The terms "abuse" and "family or household member" are widely interpreted under Illinois law, and this article helps in understanding what is considered a family member and what is considered abuse.
Our Naperville domestic abuse attorneys understand that you need safety and peace of mind in your domestic violence case. In this article, we discuss different types of Orders of Protection that could be available to you. We explain what an Order of Protection is, how it's administered by Illinois courts, and what protections it offers. We also explain the other types of orders that can be entered (emergency and plenary), the differences between them, and how they're obtained through Rockford courts.
In this article, our Naperville domestic abuse attorneys discuss Emergency Orders of Protection and explain how they're filed in Naperville courts. We also inform you on who can file Emergency Orders of Protection, how they're administered, and what information is necessary to have when filing.
Illinois law provides several forms of legal protection for survivors of domestic abuse. The most immediate is an Order of Protection (available in three forms — emergency, interim, and plenary), which can prohibit contact, require the abuser to leave a shared home, restrict proximity to your workplace or children's school, and compel surrender of firearms. Illinois law defines "abuse" broadly under the Domestic Violence Act to include physical abuse, harassment, intimidation, interference with personal liberty, and willful deprivation — not just physical violence. Additionally, domestic violence is recognized as grounds to break a lease early without penalty under Illinois law. Emergency resources in DuPage County include the Family Shelter Service 24-hour hotline at (630) 469-5650. Contact our Naperville domestic abuse attorneys.
Evidence of domestic abuse is a significant factor in both divorce and child custody proceedings in Illinois. In parenting time and allocation of parental responsibilities decisions, Illinois courts are required to consider any history of domestic violence when determining the best interests of the child. A history of abuse can result in restricted or supervised parenting time for the abusive parent — or in severe cases, termination of parenting rights. In property division, dissipation of marital assets related to abuse (such as costs incurred as a result of domestic violence) can be a factor. An active Order of Protection can also restrict a party's access to the marital home and shared property during the divorce process. Learn more about Illinois orders of protection.
Your safety is the first priority. If you are in immediate danger, call 911. For non-emergency crisis support, the Family Shelter Service 24-hour hotline is available at (630) 469-5650 and provides free, confidential assistance including safety planning, emergency shelter, and court advocacy for DuPage County residents. You can also begin the process of filing for an Order of Protection online at illinoisprotectionorder.org, or in person at the DuPage County Courthouse (505 N. County Farm Rd., Wheaton). No police report is required to file for an Order of Protection, and you do not need an attorney, though having one significantly improves your outcomes. Our Naperville domestic abuse attorneys can help you act quickly.
