Once you receive a traffic citation, you have several options to consider:
Pay It and Admit Guilt: If you believe you are at fault and have no intention of contesting the citation, you can simply pay the fine associated with the citation. By doing so, you are essentially admitting guilt, and the case will be considered closed.
Contest It Yourself: If you believe that the citation was issued in error or you have valid reasons to challenge it, you have the right to contest it on your own. This process may involve gathering evidence, presenting your case to the appropriate authorities, and potentially attending a hearing or trial.
Use a Lawyer to Contest It: If you want professional legal assistance and guidance throughout the process, you can choose to hire a lawyer who specializes in traffic violations. A lawyer can help you build a strong defense, navigate the legal system, and increase your chances of a favorable outcome.

In the event of a wrongful death, no amount of money can bring back a loved one, but compensation can help lessen the financial burden. The court takes a number of economic and non-economic factors into account when determining the amount of compensation.
WRONGFUL DEATH ECONOMIC LOSS FACTORS :
From an economic stand point, the court considers funeral and medical expenses, as well as the amount of money the deceased would have contributed had they lived a normal life span. This in and of itself is a very complex equation in which the court examines how financially dependent the survivors were on the deceased including the age and needs of the deceased’s children.
A last will and testament is a legal document that determines the distribution of your assets and care for minor children after your passing.
It’s tough to think about making end-of-life decisions, but if you have assets you want control over when you’re gone, you need a will. It is especially important to have a will to assign care of children. Without one, the state will decide how your assets are distributed. In Wisconsin, assets typically go to the spouse, and if there’s no spouse, they go to children, then parents, and so on.
You can update your will to reflect life changes and ensure that it meets all requirements by seeking the guidance of an experienced Wisconsin estate planning lawyer. If you need assistance with a will or trust, our Wisconsin attorneys can help ensure a smooth transfer of your assets.

By law, landlords are required to maintain rental units in a condition fit for human habitants. However, the term “fit for human habitants” can be a bit ambiguous. In order for a premise to be considered livable it must meet the following requirements:
YOUR DUTIES AS A TENANT
As a tenant, you have a duty to notify the landlord of any needed repairs or issues. The best way to notify the landlord is in writing. Always be sure to define the issue in detail and keep a dated copy of the notice for your own records. Once the landlord has been notified they must be given a “reasonable” amount of time to complete the repairs. In general, a reasonable amount of time would be considered 30 days, but can vary based on the severity of the issue at hand. For example, if the heat goes out on a cold Wisconsin day, 2 days may be considered a reasonable amount of time.
