Hello. Your friend should obey the no contact order unequivocally. No contact means no contact. Your friend should obtain attorney legal counsel in the event of any question whatsoever. Some attorneys, myself included, will confer for free, at no charge. Then, if legal work is performed, some attorneys, myself included, will provide a reduced fee for need. All the best to you and your friend.
