OWI / Drunk Driving Defense

Drunk Driving Lawyers

Drunk driving charges turn normal, hardworking, and upstanding citizens into “criminals.” You are probably worried about your reputation, how you will recover from the stigma attached to your charge, and certainly upset about the possibility of jail time. A drunk driving charge can happen to anyone who got behind the wheel without knowing how much they had to drink. You may not have known that you were actually above the limit when you started the car. Many people forced to defend a drunk-driving charge feel stigmatized for making this one bad decision.

Drunk Driving (DUI) is a Complicated Matter

Drunk Driving is the most commonly used descriptive phrase, but this charge is known by many other terms: DUI, Driving Under the Influence; DWI, Driving While Intoxicated; OWI, Operating While Intoxicated. Officially in Wisconsin the term OWI refers to “Operating While under the Influence.”

We can assist you with any of the following OWI matters:

  • OWI – DWI – DUI charge
  • Field-sobriety tests
  • Blood tests/breath tests
  • Refusals
  • Driving while suspended or revoked
  • Habitual offender status

If you have already been charged with Operating Under the Influence / DUI

If you have not been charged with OWI, but are suspected of drunk driving

Contact us immediately at 414-274-0000 for a defense attorney who may be able to prevent the filing of charges.

Make sure that you have an OWI attorney to advise you and protect your rights before you go to court in Milwaukee, Waukesha, or Wisconsin counties.

In Wisconsin, the only time you can have a say in which judge hears your case is BEFORE you enter a plea. This is an important right that you lose if you don’t use it – often at the very first court appearance.

Our Milwaukee OWI lawyers will investigate the facts of your arrest to determine whether the arresting officers had probable cause to pull you over in the first place. Even if there was probable cause to stop you, we will investigate the circumstances regarding whether there was enough evidence to support a charge. It takes the detail-oriented attention of an experienced drunk driving attorney to present the facts of your case in your favor.
