Nicole Richie just won a temporary restraining order against two paparazzi who slammed into her car earlier this month.
A lawyer in Mark Geragos' firm, Tamar Arminak (inset), was in court this afternoon and convinced the judge the photogs -- Ivon Miguel and Bam Bam -- are a danger to Nicole.
They were ordered to stay 100 yards away from Nicole and have no contact -- either direct or indirect -- with her, her kids or her staff. Joel Madden is not covered by the restraining order.
In her declaration, Nicole says the harassment occurs "on a daily basis." She claims the paps have been "stalking our home, as we try to go about living our lives."
There's a hearing next month to make the restraining order permanent.

Nicole Richie's lawyer has just gone to court seeking a restraining order against the paparazzo who struck her car earlier this month.
The pap -- who ironically goes by Bam Bam -- was arrested after the crash.
As we first reported, famed P.I. Scott Ross paid a visit to Nicole's house after the crash, along with a lawyer from Mark Geragos' law firm.

We just got hold of the birth certificate for Nicole Richie's 5-week-old son, but one word was suspiciously missing: Richie.
The newborn boy's full name is listed as Sparrow James Midnight Madden -- no big deal, until you remember Joel Madden and Nicole aren't married ... and their daughter Harlow's last name is Richie Madden.
What's another six letters on an already-mouthful-of-a-name?

Looks like Nicole Richie may be lawyering up after her car crash yesterday -- and the lawyer is none other than Mark Geragos.
We got this shot of Tamar Arminak -- a lawyer in Geragos' firm -- and master P.I. Scott Ross entering Nicole Richie's property about an hour ago. Ross works for Geragos and the two of them have handled a bunch of celeb cases, including most recently People vs. Chris Brown.
We're told Richie is angry at the photog and may sue him -- she thinks he intentionally rear-ended her to create some drama.
Stay tuned ...

UPDATE: The driver of the car that hit Nicole Richie's has been arrested (see below) for driving without a license -- a misdemeanor.
TMZ has learned Nicole Richie was just involved in a car accident in Beverly Hills.
Law enforcement sources tell us Richie was rear-ended by a car driven by a paparazzo. We're told her kids were not in the car at the time of the crash.
Sources on scene say Richie is claiming she's in pain, but will not go to the E.R. -- instead she told authorities she will see her own private doctors.
We're told the driver of the other car is being cited for being an unlicensed driver and his car is being impounded.
Richie had an adult male passenger in the car -- no word on his condition.

A little extra weight really does agree with Nicole Richie.
There's nothing like an unborn fetus to make a single gal look like a million bucks.

Wearing a clingy t-shirt dress thing which accented her distended belly, unwed waif mother Nicole Richie showed off her growing unborn child this weekend.
The 27-year-old's maternity stilettos, nana shades and nutritious coffee shop beverage prove motherhood hasn't changed all of her pre-pregnancy habits.
Nicole already has a 15-month-old biological daughter with borefriend Joel Madden.

"Then you try it on and if it fits you bring it to the register and give the nice lady daddy's credit card."
Nicole Richie spent some quality mother/daughter retail bonding time with little Harlow in NYC on Tuesday.
They grow up so fast. It seems like just yesterday she was driving the wrong way on the freeway.

With her borefriend Joel Madden sitting behind her rowing, Nicole Richie enjoyed a canoe ride while on vacation in Hawaii.
Considering her track record on the freeway, it's probably best they didn't let Nicole steer at all.

It's amazing what two years, a DUI, 82 minutes in jail and a baby can do for a gal.
Motherhood -- and eating -- definitely agree with Nicole Richie.
