Wisconsin Domestic Abuse Law

Domestic Abuse is a label placed on any case where the alleged victim has or previously had a “domestic relationship” with the defendant. It subjects the accused to a “domestic abuse surcharge.” More importantly, the label tarnishes your record and reputation.

If you are falsely accused, we will tell your story, defend your rights, and defend your reputation. If you make a mistake, we devise a strategy to mitigate the damage. We also recommend counseling to help you ensure this never happens again.

In Wisconsin, the domestic abuse label is commonly associated with these charges:

  • Disorderly Conduct
  • Battery
  • False Imprisonment
  • Criminal Damage to Property
  • Strangulation and Suffocation

Drop a No Contact Order

Wisconsin law provides a 72-hour no-contact order if requested by the alleged victim. In many cases, courts extend this by adding a no-contact order to your bond. While the courts have good intentions, in many cases, these no-contact orders have a disproportionate and devastating impact on families. No contact orders remove parents from home, leaving children missing mom or dad and the other spouse left to deal with all financial and child care burdens by themselves.

Walter Law Offices has nearly twenty years of experience in helping clients remove no-contact orders. In many areas, there is a process you must follow before you can ask a court to remove a no-contact order. We will show you what you can do that will increase the chance the court will promptly remove the no-contact order.
