Elements of a Personal Protective Order:
Colorado courts thoughtfully assess the facts and law associated with allegations of domestic violence. Judges will issue personal protective orders (also referred to as restraining orders) if such an order is necessary to protect a party from imminent and ongoing threats.
Judges consider two questions when determining whether to issue a protective order. First, courts determine whether there is an “imminent” threat of physical or emotional harm. Second, courts assess whether that threat is likely to continue without a judge’s intervention.
Domestic Violence is a Serious Issue:
Domestic violence can take many forms including assault, property damage, stalking, and harassment. All of these things are done in an effort to gain power and control over the victim. Domestic violence is dangerous for all parties including extended family members and minor children.
Attorney James Frazier has a sophisticated understanding of the criminal justice system. Mr. Frazier worked with district attorney’s offices in the state of Colorado to advocate for victims of abuse. During that time, Attorney Frazier vigorously pursued justice for all parties aggrieved by allegations of domestic violence. In his private practice, Mr. Frazier has obtained civil protective orders to prevent perpetrators from further harmful contact with victims.
Mr. Frazier’s experience with the criminal justice system has shown him that allegations of domestic violence always require thoughtful consideration. Attorney James Frazier understands that parties sometimes make false accusations in order to gain an unfair advantages in family court. Accordingly, Mr. Frazier is highly skilled in assessing these matters and helping the court form an accurate understanding of the situation.
