SUCCESSFUL RESTRAINING ORDER RESULTS

*Note, often times I am able to get restraining order matters resolved favorably for my client prior to the hearing taking place with a negotiated agreement between the parties involved.  In cases that have proceeded to hearing I have been extremely successful winning my client’s case.  A few examples are listed below.  

*Note 2:  Dismissed with prejudice =  Petitioner cannot refile to get a restraining order based on alleged issues that occurred prior to this ruling

David F. v. Keith G.:  Elder Abuse Restraining Order that my elderly client filed against his roommate who he was renting a room to.  The opposing party was harassing, bullying, intimidating, etc. my client, making him feel like an unsafe prisoner in his own home. After the trial on the matter the Judge agreed with us.  We won!  Restraining order and Move Out order Granted!  (Van Nuys, CA) 

Petitioner v. Donald N.:  Civil Harassment Restraining Order filed against my client.  After preparing a response to the Judge to dispute the restraining order request and arguing at the hearing that the Petitioner’s claims did not amount to a restraining order being issued per statute and case law, the Judge agreed.  We won!  Restraining Order dismissed with Prejudice!!!  (Lancaster, CA)

Petitioner v. Vanessa C.:  Civil Harassment Restraining Order filed against my client.  After preparing a response to the Judge, subpoenaing several witnesses and preparing my client to dispute the restraining order request the Judge agreed and dismissed the case.  I successfully argued at the hearing that the Petitioner’s claims did not meet the requirements for issuance of a restraining order being per statute, case law, and factually.  The Judge agreed and dismissed the case. We won! Restraining Order dismissed with Prejudice!!!  (Stanley Mosk Court, Los Angeles, CA)

Petitioner v. David W.:  Petitioner was awarded a temporary Domestic Violence Restraining Order against my client (prior to my involvement in this matter) and there was a hearing set for a permanent restraining order. After being retained by my client I was successful in getting transcripts from prior cases involving the parties and impeaching the credibility of the Petitioner and witnesses. Ultimately Petitioner’s witnesses benefited our defense. Not only was I successful in getting the Restraining Order completely dismissed, our defense was so strong that the Judge awarded attorney fee’s, meaning that the Petitioner was ordered to reimburse my client for attorney fees paid.  We won!  Restraining Order dismissed with Prejudice! Attorney Fees awarded in favor of my client!!

Petitioner v. Kim A. :  A Temporary Restraining Order was issued against my client by her former girlfriend alleging that she assisted in beating her up.  Petitioner also filed for a restraining order against a 3rd party, with the hearings for permanent restraining orders set for the same date.   My client was a teacher and extremely concerned that a permanent restraining would negatively impact her job. 

Upon deep review in preparing to  impeach the Petitioner’s statements and show the Judge they were lies and exaggerations, we not only showed the Judge video of Petitioner’s aggressive behavior, but also an old clip where my client and Petitioner were on the television show “Judge Judy” which the Petitioner denied, then changed her story after playing the video clip for the Court.  Not only did the Judge dismiss the Restraining Order against my client with prejudice, the other party that had an issue with petitioner also benefitted indirectly by my defense as the Judge immediately dismissed the restraining order matter against her as well based on how I was successful in establishing that the Petitioner’s statements were not true and untrustworthy.  We Won!  Restraining Order Dismissed with Prejudice!  (Lancaster, CA)

Petitioner v. Stephanie R.:  A temporary Domestic Violence restraining order was issued (prior to retaining me) following a soured relationship and breakup.  After extensive work done, including negotiations with the other party and his attorney at the trial for a permanent restraining order, a favorable resolution was reached and the Restraining Order dismissed! We won!(Van Nuys, CA). 

DISMISSAL OF CONVICTIONS PURSUANT TO PC 1203.4 (COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS EXPUNGEMENTS). 

The below results listed under this heading were cases that were dismissed post sentencing.  For example, someone was convicted and placed on probation.  Once probation was completed I filed a petition on their behalf to get the conviction dismissed pursuant to PC 1203.4 (ie.  expunged)
