Domestic violence is a type of human rights abuse that often happens in Indonesia and has serious effects on victims physically, mentally, and socially. This problem is not just about laws but also includes tricky social, cultural, and economic aspects. This study aims to look at legal protection for victims of domestic violence from a victim-focused viewpoint and see how well the Indonesian criminal justice system has delivered justice for victims. The research method used is a normative legal study with legal and conceptual approaches. The results show that even though laws are in place, their application is still not effective, especially in meeting victims' rights like compensation, support, and ongoing protection. A victim-focused viewpoint highlights the importance of putting victims at the heart of the justice system to achieve real justice. Thus, stronger roles from the state, law enforcement, and legal aid organizations are needed to give complete protection for victims.
