Domestic Abuse

Domestic abuse, also called “domestic violence” or “intimate partner violence”, can be defined as a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Victims of domestic abuse may also include a child or other relative, or any other household member. Domestic abuse is typically manifested as a pattern of abusive behavior toward an intimate partner in a dating or family relationship, where the abuser exerts power and control over the victim. It can culminate in severe physical and psychological injury. 

Survivors of domestic abuse may find it scary to confront their abusers, especially in a judicial setting. We help survivors seek justice with safety in mind. Not only do we collaborate with local organizations to ensure our clients receive the resources they need to heal, but we also foster an environment where our can safely and comfortably advocate for themselves.
