Summary
It analyses the revictimisation of women victims of gender-based violence when legal practitioners are unaware of the civil aspects covered by Law 11.340/2006 (Maria da Penha Law) in its entirety. It observes that the criminal, civil and emotional aspects arising from the offence remain separate, and proposes criminal mediation as an out-of-court tool for a problem-solving Public Prosecution Service (Ministério Público), which is also responsible for giving victims legal guidance. It is useful for those who work in courts, prosecutors’ offices and services for women, and for those who debate mediation in this type of violence.
