Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Virginia

Re: Harassment

READ THIS FIRST: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop reading now.

RESPONSE: Well, you could get a restraining order against her, which is a judicial order that she not contact you at work, but the process can be expensive and there is no guarantee you would get one (so you could end up paying thousands to an attorney, with no results). In a situation like this, I would simply tell your grandmother you're not allowed to take personal calls at work and that you're going to have to start hanging up. Then hang up!
