A Guide for Immigration Lawyers

The aim of this tool is to provide you with pertinent information:

  • Coercive control indicators
  • Attitudes and skills to adopt for your interviews
  • Relevant information for the file: how to document coercive control, required evidence, a procedural checklist and sample letters to attach to your files.

This guide is part of the Toolbox developed as part of the project entitled ''Améliorer la pratique judiciaire pour accroître la sécurité des femmes victimes de violence conjugale'' (Improving Judicial Practice to Increase Safety for Women Victims of Conjugal Violence), funded by Women and Gender Equality Canada.
