DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Domestic violence in Wisconsin covers offenses like spousal abuse, physical harm against household members, or threatened harm within familial or intimate relationships, often with restraining order proceedings and criminal charges. Convictions can lead to criminal penalties, mandatory counseling, and dramatic impacts on family law, employment, and reputation. Key legal issues include whether arrests were triggered by probable cause, whether restraining orders were appropriately issued, and whether allegations can be disproven or mitigated. A strong defense will gather evidence, challenge false reports, seek alternative resolutions, and ensure that the accused has full access to their rights. Southeastern Wisconsin residents facing domestic violence accusations deserve confidential and assertive legal support.
