Legal Options

If you are a victim of domestic violence and need someone to talk to, contact the Domestic Violence hotline 24 hours a day at 217-384-4390.

If you need help understanding your legal options or obtaining an order of protection, contact the Legal Advocacy department at 217-384-4462. Because the legal advocates are sometimes in court, it's best to call ahead and make an appointment.
