Self-Defense vs. Battery: Understanding the Fine Line in Wisconsin Law
Even though you may be accused of a violent crime, there are defenses that you may use if you choose to fight the charges. There is a line between force that is justified, such as self-defense, and force that is illegal, such as battery. If you are able to prove a sufficient threat or violent action against you, it may be possible to be acquitted of criminal battery charges. The criminal defense lawyers at Hogan Eickhoff can review your case to help you determine whether there are any defenses to the charges you are facing.
