The method that was used for this study was a qualitative analysis of court documents. Eight district court orders concerning custody disputes were selected based on the criteria that information on domestic violence was present. Due to the fact that men practice violence to a greater extent than women, another criterion was that fathers should be identified as perpetrators. When examining the complexity between the risk and the advantage of a relationship, ideals of joint custody and far reaching expectations of
cooperation between parents post separation was prominent in the documents. Therefore we found that the court maintains the society's normative view of
