CIVIL PROCESS & EVICTION

Protection Order

To obtain a protection order, you must first contact the Adams/Broomfield County Courts. When a Protection Order is issued by the court, the plaintiff must have a disinterested person over the age of 18 years serve the defendant. There may be a fee, if you are requesting the services of the Sheriff's Civil Section. Almost all services performed by the Civil Section have fees associated with them.

Refer to the Civil Fee Schedule. After obtaining the protection order, bring it to the Adams County Sheriff's Office Civil Section to arrange for service. This is located at the Adams County Justice Center, 1100 Judicial Center Drive, Brighton, Colorado.

Prior to going to court, you may wish to call 303-637-7761 Project Safeguard, a non-profit organization committed to helping end domestic violence by holding society responsible for developing, implementing and enforcing sanctions against abusers while increasing safety and survival options for abused women and their children.
