Not Sure What a DVO, AVO, or Police Order Really Means? Let’s Break It Down
A Domestic Violence Order (DVO), sometimes called an AVO (Apprehended Violence Order), is a legal order to stop threats, harm or harassment.
There are two situations:
- You’re seeking a DVO – You want legal protection.
- You’re served with a DVO – Police or someone else has applied against you.
There are different types:
- Police Protection Notices (PPN)
- Temporary Protection Orders
- Final Orders
These can affect:
- Where you live
- Your ability to contact someone
- Firearm licenses, jobs, and parenting arrangements
Our lawyer will explain what applies to you and what to do next, in simple language.
