Criminal Defense

Profile

My practice is devoted to criminal defense. I am frequently in state and federal court, representing clients accused of everything from disorderly conduct to murder. In 2007 I was elected to the board of directors of the Wisconsin Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. In 2008 I was elected to the board of directors of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. I try to remain actively involved in the community through volunteer work and diversionary programs for young offenders.
