Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

I recently filed a temporary protective order and received a court date and am wondering what, if anything, I should take to my ex parte hearing. I was told that I should have the motion for ex parte relief with me. Does this mean I should bring the blank form that the judge fills himself that I can find online and bring it with me? Or would it be better to draft up one myself, using a template from a previous ex parte filed by a lawyer against defendant on my behalf?

Given that your safety and finances are at stake, the best answer is to sit down with a lawyer. A TPO may not even be the sole thing you need to do, so doing this without legal advice is dangerous.

Glen is absolutely correct, especially if there are children involved.

Good luck
