Domestic Violence. Please guide me how strong is my case
Posted: Sun Mar 07, 2021 9:22 pm
I came to UK last year. I was pregnant. Soon after I cane my husband started hitting me. It never left any mark or anything. I never told anyone. There was alot of mental, emotional abuse going on as well. My inlaws were pretty abusive too especially regarding my child and making me neglect him.
I told my midwife and womens aid. They involved children social services which told me I need to move out or they will have to assess my inlaws and husband and might put child protection plan in place. I being already scared of my inlaws and husband chose to move out to a refuge. I have a baby and expecting another one soon.
Now the refuge applied for my ddv and I got it within a week. They are now gonna apply for ilr. I want to know how strong is my case. I only have these evidences:
Thanks in advance

Now the refuge applied for my ddv and I got it within a week. They are now gonna apply for ilr. I want to know how strong is my case. I only have these evidences:
- My midwife report
Social services report(they have been assessing my husband as well)
I emailed domestic abuse agencies, womens aid and flows. I have their reports
Marac report
Refuge where I am staying
Bank statements since he used to take money off me.
I was called to my GP to move me to refuge and police escorted us to remove us safely. So I am not sure if they would give their reports. Since I didnt call the police. Social services did and they arranged the meeting at gp. I didnt go to gp for any injuries.
I have a recording in which my husband claims to have hit me and he's abusive in that recording, taking my phone away, treating me like a child etc.
Thanks in advance
