There are roughly 13 different kinds of protective orders in Utah, so choosing the right one can be overwhelming for people who are unfamiliar with the process, said Susan Griffith of the Timpanogos Legal Center.
There is also the temporary ex parte cohabitant abuse order and the continuous protective order that can result from a defendant receiving jail or prison time, according to Susan Griffith, executive director of Timpanogos Legal Center.
A victim advocate is trained to understand these nuances, and can ask the right questions to figure out the best path for their client, Shakespear said. “They may need to hear one, two, three, four, five, a dozen times, you deserve to be safe,” she said. “You deserve for others to understand the necessity of you getting this protective order. You deserve for your voice to be heard.”
People may not be able to afford a lawyer. Plus, finding an attorney can be tricky, especially in rural areas outside the Wasatch Front. Barger estimates there are a handful of practicing attorneys in her area, so the likelihood that they would have a conflict in representing a client in a protective order case is “pretty high.”
“My main priority is always trying to get someone legal representation. I see myself as that backup option,” Barger said.
