Don\u2019t worry, most of my clients come to me feeling that way at first.<\/p>\n<p>If you are here today because you have violated a stay away order, you need help from a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.izlegal.com\/practice_areas\/criminal-defense.cfm\">criminal defense lawyer<\/a>\u00a0that understands how the criminal domestic violence process works and will fight to protect your rights, help you protect your good name and limit your exposure to harsh consequences.\u00a0 We can help.\u00a0 Get started by filling out our contact form for by calling our office, (305) 707-7345, to schedule your\u00a0<em>4-Point Case Evaluation and Defense Strategy Session<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>No criminal charge should be taken lightly, especially not the violation of a protective order or injunction. The Court and the State will likely be unsympathetic to those that violate injunctions, especially when that injunction is related to a domestic violence case.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Is There a Difference Between an Injunction and a Stay Away Order?<\/h2>\n<p>Somewhat.\u00a0 An injunction is often referred to as a restraining order and is typically put in place by a judge in civil domestic violence court whereas a Stay Away Order or a No Contact Order comes as a result of a pending criminal charge and is put in place by the judge in your criminal case.<\/p>\n<p>An injunction, commonly referred to as a \u201crestraining order,\u201d prohibits or restricts your ability to have contact with another person, commonly the victim of a crime or act of domestic violence. A restraining order or injunction is usually granted to prevent threats of harm, physical violence, harassment, stalking or domestic abuse.<\/p>\n<p>A criminal stay away order or no contact order operates in pretty much the same way, but is put in place during a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.izlegal.com\/library\/domestic-violence.cfm\">domestic violence case in criminal court<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Serious Consequences<\/h2>\n<p>Either way, violating an injunction (a first-degree\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.izlegal.com\/library\/misdemeanors.cfm\">misdemeanor<\/a>) is a serious crime in the state of Florida and you can face up to 364 days in jail, twelve (12) months probation and a $1,000 fine.\u00a0 Violating a court\u2019s order can also have severe immigration consequences as domestic violence related cases could be additionally problematic for non-citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Not to mention it can keep you in jail until the case(s) are resolved.<\/p>\n<p>When charged with the crime of violating a domestic violence injunction or protective order, no matter how insignificant it may seem, it is imperative to seek the help of a\u00a0Miami criminal defense attorney\u00a0as soon as possible in order to ensure your rights are protected and every possible defense is investigated and explored.<\/p>\n<p>Cases like these can turn on the smallest details.\u00a0 Make sure someone is in your corner and looking out for your interests.\u00a0 The consequences can ruin everything you\u2019ve worked for.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Do You Find Yourself In Need Of A Miami Criminal Defense Lawyer?<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve recently found yourself in need of an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.izlegal.com\/library\/the-danny-difference.cfm\">experienced criminal defense attorney in Miami<\/a>\u00a0you should contact me as soon as possible.
