The Spark

Like so many parents, I felt utterly helpless. My child was attacked at school, and the response I received wasn't what I expected. The school system seemed unable or unwilling to provide the protection they needed. I felt lost, overwhelmed, and desperate to understand my options. I started searching for answers, realizing quickly that navigating the legal system, especially when it comes to restraining orders, can be incredibly confusing. I didn’t know what I didn’t know.

That feeling of helplessness, that frustration of searching for answers in the dark, is what led me to create RestrainingOrderHelp.com. I wanted to build a resource that would shine a light on this often-complex process, offering clarity and support to parents and individuals facing similar situations. I started with California, because that's where my journey began, and I hope to expand to help families across the country.
