Domestic violence and Texas law, step by step

Tap any step to expand.

Under the Texas Family Code, “family violence” includes acts intended to cause physical harm, bodily injury, assault, or sexual assault — and threats that reasonably place a family or household member in fear of imminent harm. It can involve spouses, partners, family members, or others in the household.

If you’re in immediate danger, call 911. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788) offers free, confidential 24/7 crisis support and safety planning. Local shelters and advocates can help with a safety plan, emergency housing, and next steps. See medical and support resources in Houston.

Texas offers several protections: a magistrate’s order for emergency protection (often after an arrest), a temporary ex parte protective order (granted quickly when there’s a clear and present danger), and a final protective order (after a hearing, lasting up to two years or longer in some cases). A protective order can order someone to stay away, stop contact, and leave a shared home. Learn more about the Texas family courts.

Family violence can strongly affect custody and possession decisions, which are based on the best interest of the child. A history of abuse can limit or supervise a parent’s time with children and shape property and support outcomes in a divorce. Learn more about custody, divorce, and child support.

Being accused of family violence can affect your freedom, your record, and your parental rights. Allegations are sometimes mistaken or disputed. If you’re facing them, it’s important to understand your rights and respond carefully with experienced counsel.

The Law Office of Bryan Fagan, PLLC helps clients on both sides of these difficult cases — survivors seeking protection and people responding to allegations — with compassionate, focused representation. Initial consultations are free.

Common Questions

Domestic Violence FAQ

A protective order is a court order issued in family violence (and certain order) cases that can bar contact, require someone to stay away, and is enforceable by arrest — violating it is a crime. A restraining order is a more general civil order (often used in divorce or property cases) directing parties not to take certain actions; violations are typically handled as contempt rather than as a criminal offense.

If there’s a clear and present danger of family violence, a court can grant a temporary ex parte protective order very quickly — often the same day — without notice to the other person. A final protective order requires a hearing, usually scheduled within about two weeks of filing.

Texas courts decide custody based on the best interest of the child, and they take family violence seriously. Reporting abuse generally supports protective decisions for children — including limited or supervised time with an abusive parent — rather than punishing a parent who reports.

Yes. Child Protective Services can become involved when children are exposed to family violence. CPS focuses on child safety and may work with the family, recommend services, or take more formal steps depending on the situation. Learn more in
CPS 101.

Allegations of family violence can carry serious consequences for your record, your freedom, and your parental rights. Don’t try to handle it alone — talk to an experienced family law attorney early so you can understand your rights, respond appropriately, and protect your case.

Know the Difference

Protective Order vs. Restraining Order

Plain-English comparison — not legal advice for your situation.

Factor	Protective Order	Restraining Order
Purpose	Protect a person from family violence, dating violence, sexual abuse, stalking, or trafficking.	Preserve the status quo in a civil case (often divorce) — e.g., not selling assets, not harassing the other party.
What it does	Can order no contact, stay-away distance, removal from a shared home, and surrender of firearms.	Directs parties not to take specified actions; typically narrower in scope than a protective order.
How you get it	File an application; temporary ex parte order can be granted quickly; final order after a hearing.	Usually requested as part of an existing civil case (such as a divorce).
Enforcement	Violation is a criminal offense — police can arrest on the spot.	Violation is usually handled through civil contempt in the underlying case.
Duration	Temporary orders are short-term; final protective orders can last up to two years (sometimes longer).	Lasts as long as the underlying case or until the court modifies it.
