Top Civil Lawyers in Waukesha | 10 available

Married and 5 children. Marathon runner (10) (Charitable organizations, Lymphoma and Leukemia Society, Special Olympics). As the previous District Attorney of Waukesha County, WI I handled virtually every criminal case you can imagine from police executions, murders, sex assault, robbery, narcotics, corrpution, traffic, DWI, open records/meetings, elections and numerous other areas. I ran for Attorney General of Wisconsin in 2006 and was unsuccessful and left the DIstrict Attorney's office, entering into private practice.  I was the recepient of numerous state and federal awards and citations during my service as District Attorney and continue my involvement in the community today.

I practice as a criminal defense lawyer because I believe that the rights of all depend on the rights of one. As a result, each person's rights must be vigilantly safeguarded against the powers of the state. An unfettered state results in the very tyranny our Founding Fathers sought to protect us against with the Constitution.. I have devoted the last 30 years of my life as an attorney to this pursuit. With the law firm of Walden & Schuster, S.C., I continue to do so for clients just like you throughout the Waukesha County area in a wide variety of criminal defense matters, including DUI, domestic violence, juvenile cases and drug-related charges.. In doing so, I follow a baseline philosophy: effective legal representation depends on individualized services. For that reason, I have intentionally structured my legal practice in order to enable me to focus on you, the individual.. My focus on each individual client enables me to learn the facts that can determine the outcome of your case. It also means I can help you understand the legal options available in your particular case so you can choose from them intelligently and with confidence whatever the circumstances. Your confidence will stem from the knowledge that my experience means I hold a legal judgment that has been tried and tested many, many times, often by situations very similar to the situation now facing you.
