No matter the circumstances, we are here to assist you in rebuilding your life. From Green Bay, Wisconsin to Chippewa Falls, we provide professional representation. Frequently, the company has taken on cases in Brown and Calument, as well as Kewaunee, Oconto, Marinette, Fond du Lac, Manitowoc, Sheboygan, Winnebago, and Ozaukee County. Wisconsin has mandatory arrest laws for domestic violence cases. Simply put, the laws require responding officers to decide who the “predominant aggressor” was of the act of domestic violence. Whomever the police think was the predominant aggressor goes to jail. This is just the arrest, however. Allegedly, if you have an argument with your wife or girlfriend, and she calls the police, then they must arrest you if he has probable cause to believe that a domestic violence crime has occurred in your home. The case will then be sent to the district attorney’s office. At that moment, the alleged victim no longer has any opportunity to “drop” of the charges. It is no longer his or her prerogative to do so.
