Most of the forms packages on this website are available in a single PDF document. Each document begins with a questionnaire, and as you answer the questions, the forms will automatically fill in your name and other needed information for you. You can then print the document and take the completed forms to the clerk's office to be filed.

For protective orders, no contact orders and restraining orders, your local clerk's office will assist you in completing the forms once you print them from the page listed below. If you reside in Madison or Marion counties, you can also get assistance from your local domestic violence shelter.

You must use Adobe Acrobat 7.0 or 8.0 to complete these forms packages. This software is available for free download, and will make sure that the forms are completed correctly, and that you can save the document with your answers on them.
