DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VERSUS DOMESTIC ABUSE

There is a subtle difference between domestic violence and domestic abuse. Domestic violence is the act of violence or the threat of violence by a current or former intimate partner, so a boyfriend, fiance, or spouse. Domestic abuse is abuse or aggressive behavior, as well as the threat of violence, by someone who is close to the victim, such as a family member or an intimate partner.

Domestic Violence Versus Coercion

Domestic violence can be the act of violence, attempted violence, stalking, harassment, revenge, threatening someone, or coercion against someone else. Coercion is forcing someone to do something they don't want to do. Seek help if any of these situations applies to you.

Whether you're the victim of one of these crimes or you are accused of domestic abuse or violence, we can help. Get in touch with our domestic violence lawyers today.
