The discrepancy between the legal outcomes and the actual support needs of victims of domestic abuse has, in certain cases, been argued to have increased. This comprehensive book offers the reader a thorough exploration of the available remedies under civil, family, and criminal law. It contends that as the range and complexity of remedies have expanded, so have the expectations surrounding legal remedies. Furthermore, the book delves into the evolution of legal responses to domestic abuse over the past decade and examines how the victims' rights narrative and associated litigation have shaped expectations and influenced domestic abuse policy and law. By drawing on a discourse familiar to those interested in human rights, the book demonstrates its significant impact on a vital area of law that holds immense importance for family and criminal lawyers, as well as for individuals concerned with domestic abuse and legal responses.
