Do I Really Need a Lawyer if I Was Arrested for Something I Didn't Do?

Don’t take chances with your future, get the help of an experience criminal defense attorney

Being arrested for a crime you definitely did not commit is shocking and alarming -- yet there's a tendency for some to think there will be no problem getting the charges dropped. This overconfidence can extend to the judicial process, in which the accused decides a lawyer isn't necessary. Unfortunately, in Wisconsin, as in other states, it's possible to be convicted for a crime you actually didn't commit. Because this risk is real, you need to have a lawyer help you get the charges dropped or help you get acquitted.
Your vs. Their Perception
It's obvious to you that you didn't commit the crime; you weren't at the scene of the crime, you look different from the the person in police sketches or security video, or you have some other irrefutable proof that you're innocent. None of that matters if the court and jury don't listen. There could be several witnesses who mistakenly identify you because of your clothes or build. You could have committed a similar crime in the past, making you a more likely suspect in the eyes of law enforcement.
You can't get complacent. Even if you have absolute proof you couldn't have committed the crime, you need legal representation from lawyers who know how the court system works and who can seek out the type of proof that will work in court. This is especially true if you had answered any police questions before being arrested. You may have said something that could be used in court against you, in which case a lawyer is necessary to try to undo the damage.
Simply knowing you are innocent isn't enough. If you have been accused of or arrested for a crime you didn't commit, contact Eisenberg Law Offices at (608) 256-8356. Never assume you'll be able to clear up the situation yourself as you could make things worse.

How to Work With Your Insurance Company After a Car Accident

Steps to take with your insurance company after a car accident

It's normal to feel flustered after a car accident, and it's wonderful when your insurance company steps up and helps you. But it's unfortunately all too common for an insurance company to be uncooperative or for the process to seem so overwhelming that you don't know where to start. Here's how to deal with the post-accident process.
1. Get Everyone's Information and Call Appropriate Authorities
If someone's been hurt, you need to call paramedics right away. You should also always call the police to report the accident even if no one has been hurt; a police report can help your case when you seek full reimbursement from an insurance company.
Trade information with the other parties involved: your insurance company information, contact information, driver's license numbers, vehicle information, license plate numbers, location information, and police information. Take pictures of the scene and vehicles if you can.
2. Call Your Insurance Agent
Once you've gotten everyone's information, call your insurance agent. Try to talk to the actual agent instead of a general customer service line for the insurance company. Your agent will tell you who else you need to call.
3. Keep Records of Everything
While your insurance agent should be the one to contact the other party's insurance company, you should still keep copies of everything. Keep a log of calls you make, even quick ones to repair shops to ask about repairs.
4. Review Your Policy and Arrange for a Rental Car
Assuming any injuries are not severe enough to prevent you from driving, you'll need a rental car. Review your policy to see what's covered and what the reimbursement schedule is like. If you don't have specific rental car coverage, ask your agent what your options are.
After that, you'll have the car repaired and continue with any medical treatment you need. If the insurance company that is supposed to pay for this does not want to reimburse you for the full cost, contact a lawyer at Eisenberg Law Offices at (608) 256-8356 to speak with an attorney.

Defending Wisconsin Sexual Assault Charges

Accusations and charges of sexual assault come more frequently than they used to, in part because the stigma victims once faced has lessened. While this represents a positive development in many ways, it sometimes creates assumptions that the accused is always, automatically guilty. If you are facing accusations of sexual assault, you still have the right to a strong legal defense.
Criminal Sexual Assault Penalties
Wisconsin law establishes different degrees of sexual assault and different penalties for them. The level of the charge depends not as much on your actions as the result. First degree sexual assault, for example, is reserved for nonconsensual sexual contact or intercourse that results in either pregnancy or great bodily harm; it is punishable by up to 60 years in prison. Second degree sexual assault is that which results in moderate injury, illness, or mental harm, and comes with up to a $100,000 fine and up to 40 years in prison. Third and fourth degree sexual assault result in lower fines and sentences.
Consent as a Defense
The penalties for sexual assault differ, but every degree of the charge begins with nonconsensual sexual contact or intercourse. This can include situations with someone who did not consent, or with someone under 16 who cannot legally consent to the contact or intercourse.
Whether someone consented is considered a question of fact. If the person accusing you did not say no, proving whether the contact was consensual may be complicated. Even in these times, you have a right to a defense that the other person provided implicit or explicit consent for what happened.
You Need Experienced Counsel
Cases involving alleged sexual assault bring more than prison time and fines. Convictions usually result in a lifetime of registering as a sex offender. Your reputation may never recover once you are charged and convicted. If you have been charged, you need to work with an attorney who understands what is at stake and how to defend you. In Madison, contact Eisenberg Law Offices online or at 608-256-8356. We will work with you and give you the experienced representation you need.

Understanding Wisconsin Domestic Violence Law

Wisconsin takes domestic violence laws seriously. This comes from a place of wanting to protect the safety of all of its citizens. Still, if you don’t understand how this area of law works, you might find yourself in trouble for your actions or words. Before you get to that point, take the time to understand just what domestic violence means in Wisconsin.
Who Do These Laws Protect?
Domestic violence laws come into play between family members or any people living together. If you live with your spouse, your ex-spouse, your parents, or even a roommate, you may be subject to domestic violence charges. All that is required is an incident in which one person hurts or threatens another who lives with him or her.
What Is Domestic Violence?
You probably think of domestic violence when a man beats his spouse. This certainly qualifies, but it is only part of the picture. Domestic violence does not require physical harm for charges to be filed. It includes any of these incidents:
  1. Any act intended to cause pain to another person;
  2. Any act to intentionally impair someone; or
  3. Any act that creates a reasonable fear in another person that physical harm will result.
None of these categories requires that someone is physically injured. Trying to hurt someone, or threatening to hurt someone, can qualify–and get you into a lot of trouble.
Legal Consequences of Domestic Violence
If someone calls the police about an incident in your home, they will determine whether any of the three categories of domestic violence has occurred. They will look at whether anyone is hurt, look at any criminal history for everyone involved, and assess the level of fear present. If you are arrested, you can face restraining orders, fines, and jail time. You also get a criminal record that will follow you for the rest of your life.
If you have been arrested for domestic violence, you need to take the charges seriously. The experienced lawyers at Eisenberg Law Offices can help. Contact us today, online or at (608)256-8356.

5 Reasons Your OWI Might Bring Tougher Charges

These situations could bring enhanced OWI charges in Wisconsin

Like most states, Wisconsin has strict penalties for OWI offenses. Even for a first OWI offense, you face serious consequences. The base penalties do not necessarily tell the whole story; some factors can boost your penalty even higher.
1. You Are Under 21
The legal age for drinking in Wisconsin is 21. If you are driving under the influence of alcohol and are an underage drinker, you will automatically have your license suspended for 90 days, even on your first offense.
2. Your Passenger Is Under 16
When you have a passenger under the age of 16, the charge is automatically a felony.
3. You Are a Commercial Driver
If you are operating under a commercial driver's license, you will lose those privileges for a year, in addition to other penalties for your first OWI. From there, a second OWI can result in a lifetime suspension. Conviction on an OWI can result in you losing your livelihood entirely.
4. Your Blood Alcohol Content Is Extra High
Conviction for OWI is not merely a yes/no question. Your level of intoxication affects the penalties you face. If you are measured at between .17 and .19, the penalties are doubled for your OWI. At .20 the penalties are tripled, and anything at .25 or above gets them quadrupled. The more you drink, the stiffer the penalties you face.
5. You Work Around an Ignition Interlock Device (IID)
Once you are convicted of an OWI, you must use an IID that measures blood alcohol content before you can start the vehicle. If you have another OWI after refusing to install it or working around it, you will face fines and jail time above and beyond the usual penalties for a repeat OWI.
When you face OWI charges, you need someone in your corner to defend the charges and lessen the penalties you face. Contact Eisenberg Law Offices online or at 608-256-8356 to learn more.

Getting a Lawyer After You Are Arrested

When you get arrested, your mind starts racing. You think about your friends and your family, about what you are going to do. Hopefully, you also think about contacting a lawyer. Before you do, though, you have some time to stop and plan. You don’t want to call the first attorney you hear about. Instead, do a little work and make sure you find the right person for your case.
Research Your Choices First
First, you need to look into lawyers who practice criminal law. If you are arrested in the Madison, Wisconsin area, you don’t want to call on an out-of-state lawyer who does not know the local laws or court rules. You also want someone who has a good reputation and works in criminal court; a great civil lawyer might be out of his or her element working against a prosecuting attorney.
Find the Right Experience
There is more to experience than just knowing the court and practicing in your area of law. You want someone who has handled your kind of case to represent you well. White collar criminal defendants deal with very different legal issues from domestic assault defendants or drug possession defendants. When your freedom and your criminal record are on the line, you do not want to work with someone who dabbles–no matter how smart or accomplished he or she is in another area of expertise.
Don’t Wait Too Long
While you want to get your choice right, you also can’t wait too long before you hire an attorney. The criminal law process works much more quickly than civil cases do, so you need to find strong representation. Ask friends and family to help you look into your options, and try to meet with an attorney within a few days of your arrest. That face to face meeting can help show you how well you can work with someone.
If you are looking for experienced representation after an arrest, contact Eisenberg Law Offices, online or at (608)256-8356. We have the experience and the knowledge you need for your defense.

4 Ways to Protect Your Brakes and Avoid a Car Accident

Avoiding a car accident just takes some effort on your part

Most car accidents on Wisconsin roads are preventable. In particular, when you protect your brakes and use them correctly, you are doing a great deal to protect both yourself and other drivers. Take care of your car and those around you, and you can help make the roads safer for everyone.
1. Anticipate Your Stops
Every time you have to slam on your brakes, you wear them down a little faster. In addition, you make yourself vulnerable to others behind you who may not be able to stop on time. If you are approaching a traffic light, slow down to ease into your stop.
2. Pay Attention to Those Behind You
If you see someone following you closely, you can do things to protect both them and yourself. Make sure you have space between you and someone in front of you so you have room to slow and stop. If the other driver is too close, tap the brake lightly to help slow that person down. The more space you can keep around you, the safer you will be.
3. Don't Over-Brake
Brakes wear down over time. When you hit the brakes more often, this happens much more quickly. Keeping space around you and keeping within the speed limit help you limit the wear and tear on your brakes. You will extend the life of your system and make your drives less stressful along the way.
4. Know and Maintain Your System
Finally, understanding your brakes helps you all along the way. If you have an antilock braking system, you should apply the brakes differently from if you do not. Regardless of the system you have, getting your brakes checked every time you have an oil change can help you stay ahead of problems. If you wait till you hear them grinding, you are making your vehicle less safe and more expensive to repair.
At Eisenberg Law Offices, we want you to stay safe when you drive. Sometimes you can't help what other drivers do. If someone causes an accident in the Madison area, call 608-256-8356 or contact us online today.

Will My Person Injury Case Go to Trial?

When you file a personal injury case, many things have to happen before you get to trial. Discovery, witness interviews, and negotiations with the other side come into play. Most cases settle without ever getting to a trial. Even so, preparing as though you will have a trial is almost always the right approach. Work with experienced counsel who are willing to put your best case forward--whether you get to trial or not.
Most Cases Settle
The process of getting to trial takes months. Along the way, you will get settlement offers from the other side. The first of these tend to be low, designed to make you go away without the other person--or usually his or her insurance company--having to pay what the case is really worth. As trial gets closer and more facts come out, though, the damages you have incurred become clearer. For serious injuries, this should help you get to a fairer settlement offer.
Trial Risks for Both Sides
There are reasons for both you and the other party not to want a trial. If you get a fair offer and reject it, a jury may not award as much at trial. For the other side, a trial costs significant legal fees, and there is a risk of a huge verdict against the insurance company. In the meantime, all the time from filing a lawsuit to getting to trial may cost you more in terms of the ability to recover, and the other side in terms of accumulating damages.
Always Prepare for Trial
Even though most cases settle, you should always prepare as though it won't. Your attorney should interview witnesses and conduct discovery in a way that shows you are preparing to win in the courtroom. This both helps you develop evidence and shows the other side you are serious.
Whether your case settles or goes to court, you need strong, experienced counsel to get the best damages award. If you have been injured in the Madison, Wisconsin area due to someone else's negligence, contact Eisenberg Law Offices online or at 608-256-8356.

Domestic Abuse Charges | Wisconsin Domestic Abuse Attorney

Domestic Abuse Charges In Wisconsin Have Lingering Effects

Domestic abuse charges in Wisconsin may result from a variety of factors and situations from physical assaults and altercations to even the threat of such actions being taken. Such allegations are taken seriously and offenders are harshly penalized. Even if the allegations turn out to be false or unproven, allegations and the investigative process can have lingering effects on the accused.
A domestic abuse attorney will tell you that domestic abuse charges can have long-lasting effects on your finances, reputation, and even your freedom. Below is a look at how each of these areas is affected by allegations of domestic abuse.
Financial Impact
If you are accused of domestic abuse, you will feel it in your pocketbook. To begin with, you can expect to face fines and fees from the arresting jurisdiction such as bail money and battery or disorderly conduct charges and corresponding penalties. These penalties can reach as high as $10,000 if you are convicted!  If a restraining order is issued and you live with the accuser, you may have to find a new place to live, which will impact your living expenses and may have an impact on your commuting costs too.
Reputational Impact
Being accused of domestic abuse in Wisconsin will guarantee an investigation into your life. Even if the allegations are ultimately proven to be false, the damage may be done. Our domestic abuse attorneys see reputations ruined and lives upended every year. You may lose your job and your housing as a result of the charges and can find it difficult to find a new job or place to live. 
Freedom
There is a strong chance of going to jail if you are convicted of domestic abuse in Wisconsin. Once you are released, you will have a conviction on your record, which can limit your opportunities after time has been served.

Don't Risk Your Life. Hire A Domestic Abuse Attorney To Fight Charges

The stakes are too high to leave to chance when facing domestic abuse charges. Even if you know you are innocent, you will face a trying time, many challenges along the way, and, if you go to trial, there is no guarantee of a not guilty verdict. Hiring a domestic abuse attorney is the best way to safeguard your present and future. These specialists are skilled in domestic situations and criminal defense making them better able to provide you with the defense you'll need to save your name and your future.

Bike Accident Lawyer | Bike Accidents | Bike Injuries

Hit By a Vehicle? A Bike Accident Lawyer Can Help You Recover

Biking is a terrific way to get exercise and enjoy the pleasant days that come our way, but as any bike accident lawyer will tell you, it can be dangerous for bicyclists. Bike-vehicle accidents happen every day and they rarely turn out well for the one on the bike; the chances of serious injury are high even if you take safety precautions and obey the rules of the road.
There is no question that being involved in a bike accident is scary, but knowing what to do in this situation can help in recovery.

Steps To Take After a Vehicle-Bike Accident

If you are involved in a bicycle-car accident, stay calm and treat the accident just like you would a vehicle-vehicle accident. That means:
  1. Report the Accident to the Police. The first thing you want to do after any accident, including bike accidents, is contact the police. This will ensure a formal police report is on file and evidence, facts, and witness statements are collected right away. Ask for a copy of the report.
  • Collect Witness Information. Witnesses play an important role in accident cases. If there are any witnesses to your accident, collect their names and contact information in case there is a need for their testimony in the future.
  • Take Pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words. Photos can provide strong evidence in bicycle accident cases. If possible, take pictures at the scene before anything has been moved. Take long shots to depict the entire scene as well as close-up shots of damage, tire marks, and injuries. If you are too severely injured to take pictures, ask a bystander to do it for you.
  • See a Doctor. Even if you feel well enough to go home, make time to see a doctor for a thorough check-up. This will help uncover hidden injuries that may manifest later and will serve as proof of injury if you decide to take your case to court or file an insurance claim. Most bicyclists will experience some sort of injury if they are hit by a car. Don't delay visiting a doctor. Almost every bike accident lawyer has a story where an insurer tried to deny coverage because the injured bicyclist waited too long to see a doctor. They claimed the bicyclist must not have been injured too badly if they were able to wait so long to visit a doctor.
  • Hire a Bicycle Accident Lawyer. If you are injured in a bike-vehicle accident, speak to a bike accident attorney to see if you have a case to file a claim. Even if you decide not to pursue the driver in court, a bike accident attorney can help you navigate insurance issues and make sure your legal rights are protected along the way. If you do have a case and it goes to trial, the same attorney can represent you in court, having full knowledge of your case.

Speak With a Bike Accident Lawyer For a Free Case Review

If were injured in a bicycle accident, contact Eisenberg Law Offices in Madison, WI. We offer free case consultations to help bicyclists recover damages after an accident. We can help you submit an insurance claim, file a lawsuit against the vehicle driver, or determine appropriate next steps.

False Imprisonment Defense Strategies | Eisenberg Law

4 Defense Strategies to Fight False Imprisonment Charges

Holding someone against their will in a confined space is considered false imprisonment and it is a felony in Wisconsin. Such charges are often added to other charges, such as burglary and robbery or even domestic disputes. In many cases, however, the imprisonment charges are unwarranted, added onto the other charges by prosecutors who are trying to gain leverage. 
Facing such charges is challenging, but not impossible. An experienced criminal defense attorney will try to get these charges dismissed or reduced to minimize fines and penalties. There are several defense strategies that may be employed.

Defining False Imprisonment

False Imprisonment falls under Wisconsin Statute 940.30, which states:
"Whoever intentionally confines or restrains another without the person's consent and with knowledge that he or she has no lawful authority to do so is guilty of a Class H felony."
A Wisconsin Class H felony is punishable by up to 6 years in prison, maximum fines of $10,000, or both.
They are one of the most common classes of felony in the state.

4 Defense Strategies to Fight the Charges

Getting the charges against you reduced or dropped is the goal of your criminal defense attorney. Depending on the case against you, an experienced defense attorney may build a defense using any one of the following arguments.
  1. There Was a Lack of Intention to Confine the Person. In some cases, it may be argued that it was not the accused's intent to confine the other person. For example, it's possible that the accused simply locked a door or shut a locked door, not knowing the other person was inside. It's also possible for the confined person to think they were prohibited from leaving, when in reality, they were not prohibited. In that case, the situation would be a misunderstanding, not a crime.
  2. The Boundaries Imposed Did Not Confine the Person. If a person is locked in a space, but there is another reasonable exit available, the defense could argue that the person was not actually confined. In addition, if keys are accessible to the person locked in the room, then it could be argued that they had the means to escape. We also want to mention that boundaries for confinement do not have to be physical. It's possible for the confined person to argue that they feared bodily harm if they tried to escape.
  3. The Confinement Was Made in Good Faith. Sometimes, it can be argued that the person was confined for a good reason. Perhaps they were displaying distressing or unusual behavior and the accused was simply trying to prevent the other person from harming him or herself or others, by preventing that person from leaving an area. As an example, a small business owner who confines a shoplifter until the police arrive should not have to face false imprisonment charges. Parents of minor children are another example. In most situations, parents are well within their parental rights to confine their children in a safe space for a reasonable amount of time.
  4. Lack of Evidence of Confinement. If you are accused of a crime, evidence must be presented to support the accusation. Without evidence, it becomes one person's word against the other's. A skilled attorney will be able to use this to your advantage and argue that the charge should be dropped.

Present Your Side of the Story With Help From an Eisenberg Law Criminal Defense Attorney

If you are facing charges of false imprisonment, you do not want to do it alone; there is too much at stake. Arrange a free consultation with a criminal defense attorney from Eisenberg Law Offices of Madison to learn more about the charges against you and what defense options are available. We will work hard on your behalf to have the charges dropped, dismissed, or reduced to lesser, non-felony charges.

Traumatic Brain Injury | Hire A Brain Injury Attorney

How A Brain Injury Attorney Helps TBI Victims

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) happen when an external force or impact causes the brain to bounce around in the skull. They are common in high impact sports like boxing and football, but they can also happen as a result of a car accident or a fall. In fact, the CDC estimates that almost half of all TBIs occur due to a slip-and-fall situation. 
These injuries can cause lifelong damage, may require extensive rehab and treatment and even long-term care. A brain injury attorney helps victims of TBI recover compensation and better position themselves and their families for living life after a TBI.

Types of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Traumatic brain injuries can happen due to an accident or due to someone else's actions. TBIs do not all look the same. They may result from:
  • Contusions. Contusions occur as a result of direct impact to the head. They often cause brain bleeds.
  • Most common in car accidents and other impact types of situations like boxing, concussions happen when the head is jolted back and forth in a rapid motion.
  • Penetrative Injury. Penetrative injuries cause physical damage to the brain, causing a loss of brain tissue.
  • Axonal Injury. These very serious TBIs occur as a result of severe shaking or impact. The brain may actually rotate in the skull, leading to brain damage and even death.
  • Acquired Injuries. Acquired brain injuries happen not from direct impact, but because the brain was deprived of oxygen. This may happen due to strangulation or submergence in water (drowning), or even from exposure to toxins like lead.

How a Brain Injury Attorney Can Help Victims

If a TBI is caused by another person or another party is liable for the injury, a brain injury attorney should be called in. These attorneys specialize in advocating for victim's rights and navigating the legal process to secure compensation for the injuries sustained. In many cases, compensation is vital to the victims and their families as they face increased medical bills, possible loss of income and even job loss and personality changes that occurred as a result of the accident.
The brain injury attorneys at Eisenberg Law Offices help victims throughout the legal process by:
  • Negotiating with insurance companies on the victim's behalf.
  • Filing the personal injury claim.
  • Collecting evidence to support the claim.
  • Ensuring that victims are compensated for all of the losses that were suffered as a result of the brain injury. Losses may include: past, present, and future medical expenses, and compensation for lost wages or income.
  • Representing the victim throughout the legal process to facilitate a quick and efficient resolution.
A traumatic brain injury can have a lasting impact on victims and their families. The victim's personality may change. He or she may have trouble with basic skills and may need to relearn speaking, eating, walking, etc. Some injuries heal with time, but many never do and the changes they wrought are lifelong.
If you or a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury, take steps to protect yourself by speaking with an injury attorney at Eisenberg Law Offices in Madison. We offer free consultations to go over your case and determine if a claim exists. If a claim does exist, we will fight vigorously for your right to compensation so you can better adjust to your new normal.
Contact Eisenberg Law Offices at 608-256-8356 or Info@eisenberglaw.org to arrange a free consultation today.
