What Is a Domestic Violence Offence?

Under NSW law, there is no single offence called “domestic violence.” Instead, a domestic violence offence is any criminal offence committed against a person with whom the accused shares or has shared a domestic relationship, as defined under section 11 of the Crimes (Domestic and Personal Violence) Act 2007 (NSW). This includes offences such as common assault, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, stalking and intimidation, property damage, and the new offence of coercive control under section 54D of the Crimes Act 1900.

Domestic violence charges carry serious penalties, including fines, community-based orders, and imprisonment. A conviction is permanently recorded on your criminal record as a domestic violence offence, which can affect employment, travel, and family law proceedings.
