Courts are often used for rehabilitating offenders, however, there is usually little thought and planning put into the development of court processes so that they can achieve their goals. Since specialist courts are being used to sentence Indigenous offenders of partner violence it is important to make the court experience more meaningful for such offenders so that a reduction of violence in Indigenous communities can begin to occur. The economic and social benefits of reducing violence have direct effects on the individuals affected, and wider, long-term effects on generating more harmonious and cohesive Indigenous families and communities.

法院通常用于罪犯改过自新，但通常很少考虑和规划法院程序的发展，以便他们能够实现自己的目标。由于专门法庭被用来判决犯有伴侣暴力罪的土著罪犯，重要的是使法庭的经历对这类罪犯更有意义，以便能够开始减少土著社区的暴力。减少暴力的经济和社会效益对受影响的个人有直接影响，对产生更和谐和更有凝聚力的土著家庭和社区有更广泛的长期影响。
