WomensLaw serves and supports all survivors.
The steps for getting a relief from abuse, neglect, or exploitation order are similar to the steps for getting a relief from abuse order. See Steps for getting a relief from abuse order. The forms will be different, so be sure to ask the clerk for the paperwork to file for a relief from abuse, neglect, or exploitation of a vulnerable adult.
