Limited data exists regarding the effectiveness of CPOs; however, theories of therapeutic jurisprudence argue that legal interventions in and of themselves can improve mental health outcomes. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effectiveness of having a CPO issued against one's abuser at improving the psychological sequelae of exposure to trauma. We used a longitudinal sample of female residents of battered women's shelters who had experienced IPV (\n                    <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u00a0= 106; 55% African American).

These results support theories of therapeutic jurisprudence, suggesting that having a CPO can improve mental health outcomes. Limitations and clinical implications of our findings are discussed, including arguing for a coordinated service system that incorporates both legal and psychological assistance to improve the mental health of victims of IPV.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jts.21754","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,26]],"date-time":"2012-11-26T11:37:31Z","timestamp":1353929851000},"page":"675-681","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Encouraging Legal Help Seeking for Victims of Intimate Partner Violence: The Therapeutic Effects of the Civil Protection Order"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Caroline Vaile","family":"Wright","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology Saint Elizabeths Hospital  Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dawn M.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology University of Akron  Akron Ohio USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","volume-title":"Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders","author":"American Psychiatric Association","year":"1994"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","volume-title":"Cognitive therapy of depression","author":"Beck A.
