You can get a short-term restraining order without service. It's called "ex parte." They are short term, as one does need to prove why a restraining order is needed. Average is 21 days, then a hearing needs to be held.

There is now way you can have a restraining order heard without a laywer except for one instance. This the case where you have already begun preceeding for the restraining order when you would like to file your own restraining order.

Well that is a matter entirely up to you. Before you can begin to consider having your restraining order heard, you must first ask yourself the reasons that you have a restraining order. A proper psychological evaluation may first be needed. When these questions have been answered, it is then safe to move on to talking about restraining orders.
