We are excited to share a very helpful video series from Louisiana Appleseed.

They produced this video series in order to walk self-represented survivors through the steps of filing for a protective order. This six-part series includes in-depth videos explaining the protective order petition, the notarization requirement, filing the petition, service of the petition, the protective order hearing, and what happens after the hearing. This video series is geared toward self-represented survivors and is a valuable resource for survivors who are filing protective orders themselves.
