Domestic Violence - Battery - Disorderly Conduct - Restraining Orders

Domestic violence is aggressively prosecuted by law enforcement and can have severe consequences. To schedule a consultation with a well-respected Wisconsin criminal defense attorney who specializes in domestic violence cases, contact the law firm of Kim & LaVoy through this Web site or by calling (262) 796-1400 or (414) 257-2100.

In the state of Wisconsin, the District Attorney's office can prosecute someone for domestic abuse regardless of a victim's wishes. As criminal defense lawyers, we know and understand that things are not always how they appear to the eyes of law enforcement. Sometimes people say things that are not true. Sometimes police reports are not accurate. Sometimes a situation simply does not call for a criminal conviction resulting in devastating effects to a family unit.

A conviction for a domestic violence related case can result in severe consequences such as jail time or the inability to see a loved one for an extended period of time. In addition, a domestic violence conviction can negatively affect child placement issues in family court. Further, people who are convicted of domestic abuse cannot possess firearms for the rest of their lives under federal law.

Domestic violence cases are rarely black and white. As a former Assistant District Attorney who specialized in domestic violence prosecutions, Julius Kim  has reviewed thousands of domestic violence cases and is skilled at sorting through the complexities of these types of cases and getting to the heart of the matter. Oftentimes, domestic violence defendants act in self defense or are falsely accused for various reasons. Pointing this out to a prosecutor or a jury can bring the truth to light and may be the difference between a criminal conviction and a dismissal.

We welcome the opportunity to evaluate your case and explore every avenue of defense. While a criminal conviction may not always be avoided, we are often able to achieve charge reductions, lighter sentences, or other favorable results through skilled negotiation.
