The purpose of this work is to establish the legal protection and access to justice provided by the Colombian state, more specifically in the municipality of Sibate, to women who are victims of intrafamily violence. The problem of intrafamily violence is an issue that concerns us all, as its consequences are reflected in the economic, political, social and public health. According to World Bank studies, "rapes and domestic violence lead to the loss of nine million healthy life years (AVISA) per year in the world" of public safety because it involves the free exercise of rights and the development of the personality. On the other hand, it affects the family unit because violence is a pattern of interaction transmitted from generation to generation. Violence has historical roots and today is more acute and complex than ever. It is given at all levels: political, economic, social, labor and intrafamilial. It takes all the spaces: the street, the school, the hospital, the company, the home. It assumes multiple forms: physical, psychological, sexual, verbal and economic. It has multiple representations: suicide, homicide, disappearance, kidnapping, massacre, mistreatment, blackmail, outrage. It affects everyone: children, young people, adults, men, women, as victims or perpetrators and is part of our daily lives. For this reason in the present investigation in which intrafamily violence will be taken as a research to determine and differentiate its different typologies and the victim's affectation by the perpetrator.
