In the state of Florida, an injunction—also known as a restraining order—is a court order that prevents a person from having contact with another individual. Injunctions are civil in nature; however, if the terms of the injunction are violated, a person can be prosecuted criminally.
There are several types of injunctions that can be filed in Florida. Generally, these types of injunctions include:
- Dating violence
- Domestic violence
- Repeat violence
- Sexual violence
- Stalking

Mr. Schisani has handled many pre-arrest investigations in his criminal defense career. He understands from experience the high stakes associated with a serious criminal investigation, and therefore, knows the importance of being proactive and attacking these cases from the start.

It happens when you least expect it. You are running behind schedule, trying to get to your destination on time. You are traveling hastily down the road, and then before you know it, lights and sirens are initiated behind you—and you are pulled over. Although you may feel helpless if you are the driver in this situation, traffic cases are heavily defensible. There are requirements that the officer is obligated to abide by and sometimes fail to follow, which can be exploited and used in your favor to potentially get the ticket dismissed altogether. If you are facing a Florida traffic citation, you need an experienced and aggressive traffic attorney to protect you. The Schisani Law Firm has you covered.
In the past, victims of crimes were essentially voiceless. In other words, they were not bestowed with any genuine powers. Consequently, since victims did not have any real rights in the criminal process, they had to passively sit back and wish for the best outcome—hoping justice was served. Fortunately, a lot has changed in modern society to give victims a voice, as well as provide avenues to exercise their rights. Article 1 Section 16 of the Florida Constitution gives victims various rights they did not previously have. A victims’ rights attorney can aid those that have been victimized by crimes. Having experienced and skilled counsel by your side can help a person navigate a fundamentally complex judicial system, as well as aggressively fight to enforce the rights enumerated under the Florida Constitution. The Schisani Law Firm, P.A. will aggressively fight for you to help ensure justice is served.
