Abstract

The Maria da Penha Law – the result of an expression by the Brazilian state in the OAS for non-compliance with International Conventions – reveals itself as the main legal device for curbing violence against women. In this sense, the work is based on the following problem: Are the guidelines provided for in Law 11,340/06 actually being followed by the Specialized Women's Assistance Police Stations (DEAMs) and the urgent protective measures resulting from the proposed effect? To this end, the work used descriptive research methodology, based on a quantitative analysis, carried out using the bibliographic technique. In this sense, this study analyzes the obstacles faced by complainants due to the high number of femicides in the State of Paraíba in 2023, in addition to the study on the granting and effects of urgent protective measures, from a legal and social perspective. From this work, it is possible to perceive the impact, with regard to the implementation of Law no. 11,340/06, due to the lack of investment in DEAMs, resulting in a low number of units, special Resources and escape structures. Furthermore, there was an increase in the granting of urgent protective measures, verifying, through data analysis, their effectiveness through the Integrated Patrulha Maria da Penha Program, which aims to ensure due compliance with this precautionary tool. However, the repercussions of the victim's choice not to report as a deterrent to the due impact of the measures on the percentage of femicides were noted, making it necessary to observe their reasons and ways of changing this reality.
