Eisenberg Law Offices, S.C. in Madison, WI Announces Recent Case Victories and Award Settlements

June 11, 2010 — Eisenberg Law Offices, S.C. recently settled a case in southern Wisconsin involving a repeated intentional sexual assault of a minor. Approximately three months before trial was scheduled to commence, Attorney Stephen J. Eisenberg settled their minor client’s claim for $2.4 million. The settlement was the culmination of three years of diligent pursuit of an individual who groomed and sexually molested a 10-year-old child over a 16-month period. Eisenberg Law Offices, S.C. discovered the financial assets of the wrongdoer and obtained a sizeable settlement from the individual responsible for the molestation.

In January, 2010, a Grant County jury returned not guilty verdicts against a Grant County resident on three counts of first degree sexual assault, false imprisonment and strangulation. The client was represented by Stephen J. Eisenberg of Eisenberg Law Offices, S.C. The case involved a claim by a woman that the man sexually assaulted her at gun point, refused to allow her to leave the premises and strangled her to the point where she could no longer breathe and was in fear of her life. The jury returned not guilty verdicts in approximately 35 minutes.

Stephen J. Eisenberg of Eisenberg Law Offices, S.C. represented a Dane County resident in April, 2010, on a charge of first degree sexual assault of a child.

After a 2-day trial in Dane County Circuit Court, the jury was deadlocked at 11-1 not guilty. Jury verdicts in criminal cases must be unanimous. The judge declared a mistrial. Shortly thereafter, the State elected not to pursue another trial and the charge of first degree sexual assault of a child was dismissed.
