An OFP can reshape your rights instantly — we help you respond strategically before it affects your future.

An Order for Protection (OFP) under Minnesota Statute 518B can impose strict limits on your contact, parenting time, home access, and daily activities. These restrictions often take effect before you have the chance to defend yourself. We move quickly to assess the allegations, prepare your response, and position you effectively for the OFP hearing.
