Domestic Violence
Domestic violence or domestic abuse is also known as family violence which often happens in a domestic setting, such as in marriage or cohabitation. Domestic violence is also referred to as intimate partner violence, which can take place in heterosexual or same-sex relationships, or between former spouses or partners.
In its broadest sense, domestic violence often involves violence against children, teenagers, parents, or the elderly. It takes multiple forms, including physical, verbal, emotional, economic, religious, reproductive, and sexual abuse. Domestic violence can range from subtle, coercive forms to marital rape and to violent physical abuse, for instance, choking, beating, female genital mutilation, and acid throwing.
Domestic Violence Lawyers
Domestic Violence is one of the most common crimes around the world but many victims are afraid of their abusers and refuse to file a report or go to court. However, filing a report and going to court can help the victim get away from their abusers for good. Hiring a domestic violence lawyer will increase your chance to win the case and be free from their abusers by getting a restraining order from the judge so the abuser cannot go near the victims or put the abusers in jail to prevent them from doing any harm to others.
