Initially meeting the client, I did not know what to expect. There are always some nerves incorporated when getting a new case and knocking on a stranger’s door. I felt uncomfortable at first when meeting with the client since it was in her home and an unfamiliar place to me. During the initial meeting of the client I discussed opening paperwork with client including the rights she had.

difference because of the huge control that religion and belief on equality. Russia and Egypt both seem to be going nowhere when it comes to address the issue of domestic violence. Egypt also has a lot more history when it comes to mistreatment of women. The issue of domestic violence as a whole is very similar when it comes to vulnerability. A lot of people that live in Egypt have a mentality of I provide, I give a roof over the head you are my belonging. This is usually the male figure in the…

Was there anything that could have been done to prevent this? What are the rights of Nicole’s family? All of these plus many more are questions that have come up since this tragedy 22 years ago. This case had much to do with the Violence Against Women Act being passed by Congress in 1994. There was a pattern of violence from OJ towards Nicole and this should have been a red flag for law enforcement. There should have been more extensive measures taken back in 1989 when the law was called and…

Domestic violence is something that happens nation wide and does not just pertain to women but men as well. It’s not just physical it can be emotional as well and most victims feel trapped and feel like they have no one to turn to. It is the leading cause of injury for women between the ages of 15-44. Consequently, there is more animal shelters than domestic violence shelters in the US, which says a lot about how we function as a society. However, this problem is being worked on by speaking out…
