Q

Attorney specializing in child abuse, can I report it?

Legal IntellectualViews8,024

Under the pretext of disciplining our child, my husband shouts, throws objects, hits the wall, and engages in threatening behavior. There have also been several instances of him directly hitting the child, and the child cowers and reads his mood whenever the child sees the father. At first, I just tried to work it out, but the situation is only getting worse… I think I should file a complaint for child abuse, but would it be too much for me to do alone? My child's safety is the most important thing, so I want to act quickly. If there is an attorney specializing in child abuse, I would appreciate an answer.

Answer to Related Inquiry

The situation you describe is very highly likely to constitute emotional and physical child abuse, beyond simple discipline.

Continuous shouting, threats, and physical violence toward a child are all subject to punishment under the Child Welfare Act, and can be regarded as a ‘child abuse crime’ that includes both emotional and physical abuse.

As a first step, it is important to report to a nearby police station (112) or a child protection agency (1577-1391).

In addition, if you receive the assistance of an attorney specializing in child abuse, you can systematically pursue the following legal protection.

▷ Application for a restraining order, eviction, and temporary measures against the perpetrating husband

▷ Request to separate the victimized child to a protective facility and an emergency protection order

▷ Preparation of a criminal complaint and accompaniment during the investigation process

▷ Organizing evidence of the circumstances of abuse and representation in drafting a written statement

▷ Coordinated response linked to future divorce and custody-securing procedures

In particular, if the husband engages in retaliatory behavior or makes threats after the report, you can request personal protection, and if the risk is judged to be substantial in reality, physical protection through the support of a private security escort service is also possible.

Child abuse is not a problem that ends with a single report, but a matter in which protective measures, investigation response, and legal procedures continue even after the report.

Therefore, we recommend that you consult with an attorney specializing in child abuse and seek a path to protect the safety of your child and yourself.
