What Are Orders of Protection?

In Illinois, an Order of Protection is a court-issued directive designed to prevent future harm. It can encompass a variety of protective measures, including:

These orders apply to a wide range of relationships—family members, intimate partners, or household residents—and can play a pivotal role in preventing domestic violence, stalking, or harassment.
