Domestic Violence in the UK: How to Get Legal Protection
Domestic violence is not limited to physical abuse. It includes psychological, emotional, financial, and sexual forms of coercion that lead to isolation, fear, and helplessness. Recognizing these situations is the first step toward safely resolving the issue and protecting the rights of victims.
Types of Domestic Violence
- Physical abuse: hitting, slapping, burning, or any act aimed at causing harm.
- Psychological and emotional abuse: humiliation, constant criticism, controlling behavior, and threats.
- Sexual abuse: any sexual activity without consent, coercion, or manipulation.
- Financial abuse: restricting access to money, forbidding work, or creating debts without consent.
