Protective Order Attorneys in Salt Lake County

Legal Counsel to Keep You Safe in South Jordan & Utah County

Protective orders are filed in Utah family courts to prevent an individual from harming or threatening to harm another family member or dating partner. These may be needed when a marriage or romantic relationship falls apart or when disputes arise over matters like child custody or other intensely personal family relationship issues. These orders are designed to prevent domestic abuse.

If you believe you are in danger of domestic violence, you should seek the guidance of Eric M. Swinyard & Associates, PLLC in South Jordan. Our Salt Lake County protective order attorneys can represent you before a judge to ensure that you are legally protected and that the order can be enforced. Alternatively, if you believe you have been named in a protective order unfairly, you will need our experienced legal representation to help you seek a resolution.
