Child Custody and Visitation
Client was falsely accused of child sexual assault by former spouse during custody battle. Client faced both revocation of his extended supervision as well as decades in prison on the new criminal charges. Attorney Craig Powell first won the revocation hearing, demonstrating through cross-examination of the childâ€™s interviewer and video of the interview itself that it appeared the child had been coached. Attorney Powell then used what transpired at the revocation hearing to convince the District Attorneyâ€™s office to dismiss the new criminal charges, and the client was able to win back his visitation and custody rights in family court.

Assault
Domestic violence can be a behavior or a set of behaviors by one person in a relationship whereby they try to control the behavior of another person. It often involves an act of physical aggression.

Examples of actions that can be charged as domestic violence include...

Homicide
In the event you find yourself in a situation that requires a real-life super-hero legal team you need not look any further than Hart Powell, S.C., whose lawyers have helped generations of my family. In the late 80’s early 90’s my father was involved in a business that was very lucrative but very illegal. He was caught up and facing decades in Federal and State prison. I was very young at this time so I completely didn’t understand what was going on, but when my mom, uncles, and other family members talked about my dad’s situation they would always bring up one name, Marty Kohler. Marty was talked about in our house as if he was a “Saint.” My mom would say stuff like, “Thank god for Marty”. The Government tried to make an example of my father but there was one problem the Government had that they couldn’t solve. The lawyers at Kohler & Hart (the predecessor to the firm now known as Hart Powell) were more than they could handle. Because of Kohler & Hart’s expertise in the Criminal Justice System they were able to get a lot of evidence suppressed which ultimately helped my father down to a plea of 7 years, 4 in and 3 out, when he was facing over 30 years in prison to start. It was a master class of navigating through the system. Fast forward almost 35 years, I am the proud father of three sons. My oldest became a firefighter, and my middle and youngest both followed in his footsteps. In 2020 my oldest son was put in a position where he had to defend his life and, tragically, another soul lost theirs. My son was charged with homicide and, needing a lawyer for my son, I attempted to contact Marty hoping he was still practicing law. Sadly I was informed that he was now retired. So after reaching out to a friend I was told to contact Michael Hart. I called Mr. Harts office and scheduled a meeting with him the following business day. When my wife and I walked into the office, we knew you were walking into a serious law firm. I noticed some names on the wall. The names read Martin Kohler, Michael Hart, Craig Powell. I was immediately in shock because what where the odds of this being the Marty Kohler who helped my dad all those years ago. After speaking with Mr. Hart, I asked if Marty Kohler was still practicing law and he informed me that Marty was now retired. So I asked Mr. Hart if he knew of my father’s case. He asked my father’s name and once I told him who my father was, he immediately repeated the address of my childhood home. I just started crying because Mr. Hart was my father’s co-counsel. It was at that moment I knew my son was in the best hands and we hired the Hart Powell S.C. Law firm to represent my son. Through this process Mr. Hart and his team treated us with the utmost respect. They were honest and straightforward with their professional opinions, never once promising us anything but assured us to trust the process. They were going to fight for my son as hard as they fought for my father. Mr. Hart was able to
