Domestic Violence Assessment

When a family is dealing with domestic violence, it can be difficult to know what to do. If you are in this situation, it is important to seek help from an experienced professional. In Iowa, court ordered domestic violence assessments are one way that families can get the help they need. These assessments provide a safe and confidential place for victims and their families to discuss the abuse that has been taking place.

It’s not uncommon to hear of someone getting arrested for a domestic violence incident. Sometimes, it can be an isolated incident, and the issue may be resolved relatively quickly with the help of an attorney and an understanding judge. 

But domestic violence isn’t always just one event; it can happen periodically or over a long period.
