The Family Law Act of 1975 has undergone several significant amendments, including recent changes recognising same-sex marriage. First, this chapter examines Australian family law and its approach to family violence, focusing on the legal frameworks designed to protect victims and intervene in abusive situations. It explores key legislation, including Family Violence Intervention Orders (FVIOs), and assesses their effectiveness in addressing family violence within diverse communities. Second, this chapter explores these issues, highlighting the shortcomings of the Australian family law system in meeting the needs of diverse groups and identifying areas for improvement, such as the potential use of legal pluralism. Third, it also examines how Australian law functions—or sometimes fails to function—within the context of legal pluralism.
