Unfortunately, VA does not allow for innocent violations. The statute has a mandatory jail sentence of at least one day. If you believe you may have violated a no contact/protective order, you need to contact us immediately for assistance. A good lawyer can often have the charge modified, or seek "accord and satisfaction."

If you would like to speak further about this, please call us at 703-402-2723.
