THIS RESOURCE IS FOR ANYONE IN BC WHO FEARS FOR THEIR SAFETY and seeks an order from the court providing protection from a specific person or people. A peace bond may be the best option for you if the person you are seeking protection from does not fall within the definition of “family member” in the Family Law Act. If the person you are seeking protection from is someone you think may fall within the definition of “family member” you may be able to get a family law protection order instead.
