There is a myth that only women can be victims of domestic violence. However, statistics show that men and women alike suffer from abuse. 33.5 percent of New York men have experienced some form of domestic violence in their lifetimes, compared to 32.3 percent of New York women.
Sadly, men are less likely to report domestic violence. Many believe they won’t be taken seriously, or there aren’t resources to help them. The Cimino Law Firm helps both men and women who have survived domestic abuse. No one deserves to be assaulted. If you have suffered from abuse, it is time to reach out and get help.
