Orders of Protection and Restraining Orders
Our attorneys will help you and your family get the protection you need.
If you or your children are the victims of a physical assault, threats or stalking by your spouse, significant other, or other family member, you can obtain an Order of Protection against the abusive party that legally mandates that the person keeps a safe distance from you and stops all inappropriate communication with you and your family. In Illinois, restraining orders are called orders of protection, and they place legal restrictions on the accused abuser.
Our team at Jacobson Legal Services will guide clients through the order of protection process from beginning to end, including the initial court filing of the Order of Protection and any legal action that needs to be taken if the abuser violates the order.
Order of Protection Services:
- Emergency Orders of Protection
- Long-term Orders of Protection

If you need a restraining order against an abusive party in the Chicago area, contact Jacobson Legal Services. Our attorneys are ready to guide you through the legal process from beginning to end to protect you and your family.
Sexual Harassment and Employment Discrimination
We specialize in representing victims of sexual harassment, and workplace discrimination based on age, citizenship status, disability, marital status, military status, national origin, race, religion, pregnancy, or sexual orientation.
