Not everyone who uses violence against his or her intimate partner is a batterer. It is essential to conduct a full, contextualized analysis of any violent relationship to determine if there is battering in the relationship and, if so, who is the batterer. This information is extremely important in the formulation of helpful and just responses to ongoing victims of battering who have been arrested for assaulting their partners
