Successful Defense Against Fraudulent Protective Order Claims
Hi, I’m Tahlequah protective order lawyer Aaron Grubb at Wirth Law Office, and I just wanted to share with you a win that happened the other day. In this case, we had a previously granted protective order that covered all the bases. However, the two parties eventually reached a resolution, leading one of them to voluntarily dismiss the protective order.
After this dismissal, there was a subsequent instance where the other party attempted to claim that the protective order was fraudulently filed. The argument presented was that if a protective order is fraudulently filed, the consequence could be the requirement to pay the other side’s attorney’s fees. We took this claim seriously and strategically prepared our response.
The Strategy Behind the Case Victory
We drafted a detailed brief that outlined the critical issues with the opposing party’s case. Our main points addressed the timeliness of their claim and clarified that the protective order was not fraudulently filed. There were legitimate concerns regarding their relationship that justified the initial issuance of the protective order.
As a result of our efforts, we were able to successfully deny their request for attorney’s fees, ultimately saving our client nearly $5,000. This win was not just a victory in a legal sense but also demonstrated the importance of having a diligent attorney who genuinely cares about the outcomes for their clients.
