Drugs & Narcotics
Drug-related charges carry serious consequences, from possession to trafficking allegations. Law enforcement agencies continue to crack down on drug offenses, sometimes leading to overzealous prosecutions and questionable search and seizure procedures. Our team has extensive experience challenging the legality of traffic stops, searches, and evidence collection methods that violate your constitutional rights. We'll scrutinize every aspect of your case, from the initial police contact to laboratory testing procedures. With specialized attorneys focusing on different areas of criminal law, we have the knowledge needed to navigate complex drug cases and fight for reduced charges or case dismissal when appropriate.
Drunk Driving
A drunk driving arrest can happen to anyone, and the consequences extend far beyond fines and license suspension. You're looking at potential jail time, increased insurance rates, employment difficulties, and a criminal record that follows you for years. Our attorneys know how to challenge breathalyzer results, field sobriety tests, and the circumstances surrounding your traffic stop. We'll review police procedures, examine maintenance records for testing equipment, and identify any violations of your rights. With our clear communication approach, you'll understand every step of the process and the options available to you. We're approachable and ready to answer your questions, no matter how complex your situation might seem.
Gun Crimes
Wisconsin's gun laws are complex, and violations can result in severe penalties including lengthy prison sentences. If you're facing charges for illegal possession, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit, or more serious allegations involving firearms, you need attorneys who understand both state and federal weapons laws. Our team has successfully defended clients against various gun-related charges, often finding technical defenses or constitutional violations that weaken the prosecution's case. We recognize that many gun charges stem from misunderstandings or situations where legal gun owners inadvertently violated confusing regulations. Each attorney at our firm specializes in different areas, ensuring your case receives the focused attention it deserves.
Misdemeanors & Felonies
Criminal charges range from minor misdemeanors to serious felonies, and each carries its own set of potential consequences. Even misdemeanor convictions can impact your employment prospects, housing applications, and professional licensing. Felony charges threaten your freedom with substantial prison time and permanent damage to your future opportunities. Our attorneys have defended clients against the full spectrum of criminal charges, from theft and fraud to assault and homicide. We've built our reputation over more than a century by providing aggressive defense strategies while maintaining clear, honest communication with our clients.

Our criminal lawyers in Germantown, WI handle cases involving sexual assault, child pornography, solicitation, and other sex-related charges with the discretion and seriousness they require.
