A domestic violence case refers to a legal proceeding brought forward to address incidents of intimate partner violence, encompassing both physical and emotional abuse perpetrated within the household or familial relationships.
Domestic violence cases are of critical importance due to the severe and lasting impacts they can have on victims, including physical injuries, emotional trauma, and long-term mental health consequences. Addressing these cases through the legal system serves to protect victims, hold perpetrators accountable, and break the cycle of violence within families and communities.
