PERMANENT PROTECTION ORDER (PPO)

LONG-TERM PROTECTION OR DEFENSE—KNOW YOUR RIGHTS

A Permanent Protection Order (PPO) can have lasting consequences on your life. Whether you are seeking protection or defending against an order, the outcome can affect your freedom, family relationships, and future.

At The Law Offices of Kohn Law, we provide experienced legal guidance to help you navigate these critical hearings and protect your rights every step of the way.

WHAT IS A PERMANENT PROTECTION ORDER?

A Permanent Protection Order (PPO) is issued by a court after a hearing where both parties have the opportunity to present evidence. Unlike temporary orders, a PPO can remain in effect indefinitely.

These orders are designed to prevent contact or harmful behavior and may include restrictions such as:

  • No contact or communication with the protected party
  • Restrictions on proximity to certain locations
  • Limitations involving children or family members

HOW A PPO CAN IMPACT YOU

A permanent protection order can significantly affect multiple areas of your life:

  • Parenting time and custody arrangements
  • Employment opportunities and background checks
  • Housing and travel restrictions
  • Firearm ownership rights
  • Your permanent legal record

Because of these long-term consequences, it is essential to approach these hearings with a strong legal strategy.
