Both orders will help protect you with stay away and no contact orders in attempt to stop harmful acts and threats. Protective Orders, however, will provide further protection, targeting the specific relationship between the victim and abuser, while Peace Orders can cover certain criminal acts.
More specifically, Protective Orders can include custody and visitation orders, financial support, and use of a family vehicle or home. Peace Orders, on the other hand, can protect you from:
