The issue of domestic violence reported despite long ago gained recognition and entered the public policy agenda in Brazil just over two decades, the increasing media coverage and progress of research on this type of phenomenon. However, many women are still unaware of the laws and agencies that protect, continuing thus being "beaten into silence", while others denounce their abuser and begin to deal with the consequences of post-complaint, living with threats the accompanying for many years. Therefore, it is relevant that this study aims to analyze the phenomenon of domestic violence against women in Viçosa / MG, tipicidades and examining their characteristics, as well as the perceptions of victims of the meaning, motives and implications of this violence against the existing laws to protect the rights of the female segment. The research, quantitative and qualitative in nature, was held in the city of Viçosa / MG, having as target women who have gone through the process of domestic violence, in 2010, these being young people of reproductive age or older. To identify these women, information was collected by the Civil Police, when it found 306 cases of incidents of domestic violence against women in Viçosa / MG in 2010. To analyze the effectiveness of legal instruments to protect women, we analyzed 80 cases filed in 2010 on women who resorted to protective measures to combat violence. Of this population, we selected a sample of women with the aim of examining the perceptions of violence, being composed of women 21-75 years of age, whose marital status was divorced or legally separated and elderly women, who somehow, triggered the legal instruments to protect women, specifically the Maria da Penha Law. Data were collected through desk research, semi-structured interview and Test Free Word Association, and analyzed for the content of speech. The results showed that domestic violence against women had their highest incidence, at weekends and during the months of December, November, March and April, considering that violence tends to occur in the family, in the days when the most probable victim and aggressor are at home. The socioeconomic profile of the victims, both those who underwent complaint with the Civil Police Station as those who have decided to carry forward the process, it was mostly women who were married or in a stable relationship with her partner, had an average age of 36; skin color white and gray, with education equivalent to elementary school, in the occupation of domestic or housekeeper, then those who said they did not work outside the home "housewives or a housewife." As to typicality, was found predominantly psychological violence, followed by physical violence. Despite these forms of violence appear alone were also combined with other types of violence, thus increasing the incidence, as in the case of violence that underscored the equity segment elderly female whose primary aggressor was his own son, motivated by disagreements losses arising from material or symbolic goods or objects, whereas in the case of young women, was his exhusband/companion, primarily driven by jealousy, followed by the use of alcohol. Most women, who reported the assault, requested the urgent protective measures, expressing the hope that the abuser to stay away from home, residence or place of coexistence of the victim. The output of the offender lives of victims and therefore the end of the assault represented an improvement in their lives since violence means aggression, pain, sadness, anger and humiliation. However the resolution of legal instruments for the protection of women's rights, such as the Maria da Penha Law, does not meet the expectations of victims, both in terms of the consequences of impunity as post separation. In this sense it can be concluded that violence against women, the complex and multifaceted nature, the system produces mismatch between legality and the demands and family.
