Abstract
Cases involving families where there are allegations of domestic violence constitute a significant part of family court caseloads in Australia.1 Research undertaken by the Australian Institute of Family Studies showed that allegations of spousal violence occurred in over 51 per cent of litigated cases, with the figure rising to over 70 per cent of cases not judicially determined.2 These are complex and difficult cases often filled with allegations and counter-allegations.3
