Violence against women, be it in public space or in the home environment, is legally punishable. Women in acute dangerous situations can immediately request help from the police under emergency number 110. This not only has the task of ending violence, but also to protect the women concerned and to hold the perpetrators responsible. In this case, too, the violent offender was shown out of the apartment, a step that the police often hit in such situations to prevent further attacks. As the [women's house coordination] (https://www.frauenhauskoordination.de/themenportal/hilfesystem/ Lawlicht-Kutz/) in detail, additional protection orders can be applied for to ensure the safety of the victims.

legal support and help offers

The violent assistance law, which came into force in Germany on February 28, 2025, provides the affected numerous legal options. It enables women to easily claim protection and advisory services without having to file a criminal complaint beforehand. From January 1, 2032, women with children who are affected by domestic violence may count on a legal right to protection and advice. The decisive aspects include bans and contact bans, which can be pronounced by the family courts. This is an important step to increase the security of women and children in Germany, in accordance with the information from the [Federal Ministry for Family, Seniors, Women and Youth] (https://www.bmfsfj.de/bmfsfj/themen/baual-vor-chlt-schuetzen/chutz-und-undberatung-- Dueh.

In addition to the legal framework, the offers of help for women are also of central importance. Protection accommodations, consulting facilities and specialist agencies offer comprehensive support. These are important points of contact for the women concerned to free themselves from their situation and get help.

Awareness of domestic violence should be sharpened in our society. Everyone can make a contribution to create a safe environment for everyone. It is important to be hearty and to take the right steps to support those affected.
