Jay K. Nixon , Avvo Rating: 10 Criminal Defense Attorney in Kenosha & Janesville, WI
While these charges may, or may not be defensible, you should know that sometimes there is a “price” to be paid, anytime that the police need to repeatedly “babysit” a domestic situation; the deeper message perhaps being “Folks, we don’t have time for this, so you guys need to work it out. once and for all.” That is often eventually done by separating, sometimes involuntarily by the system’s incarcerating of one or the other of you, (and sometimes both),. Or, you might someday be forced to separate by a PO’s order, after someone is sentenced, if they are convicted. You are apt to like the outcome more, however, if you can instead work this out voluntarily, by professional counseling, or by separating if that doesn’t work. Either way, both of you currently need separate, confidential legal consultations with different lawyers. Posting all these details on a public website is not a good idea, and can actually be used against you in court later. You both therefore both need to make your own intelligent decisions on what you each wants to do next, with professional assistance. Either way, good luck to both of you!
