Re: order of protection
While it is not a conflict it should certainly be considered by the attorney because your son should not be treated differently just because his ex's mother works for the DA.
If your son is not satisfied with his attorney, he has the right to change attorneys any time. If you are able, you should interview as many attorneys as possible so that you can find the one you are most comfortable with and who will be responsive to you.
Re: order of protection
No, that is no conflict... As in essence both are against your son.
You have a right to change your attorney at any time by hiring a new
One. If you can not afford to do so and need a new legal aid most
Judges will not allow you to make such a change.
