Milwaukee Drunk Driving - OWI - DWI - Traffic Tickets
Selecting an effective, proactive Criminal Defense Attorney is the most important step in addressing the charge against you. Whether it be Operating after Revocation or Suspension, Habitual Traffic Offender, OWI/DUI, or a Speeding Citation, the consequences of doing nothing will have a lasting effect. Failure to appear in Court may lead the Court to issue a bench warrant, or issue judgment against you and revoke or suspend your operator’s privileges. Judgment against you on a Criminal Traffic Charge will likely create a negative ripple effect seriously impacting your Wisconsin DOT record. Insurance companies will undoubtedly adjust premiums accordingly. State mandated DOT high risk SR-22 insurance requirements can break the bank. Your driving record is who you are to Insurance Carriers. Each and every subsequent traffic related allegation will undoubtedly be enhanced, having an even greater impact on your record. Your job or livelihood may be at stake. To address the charge against you, a strong defense is your right, your privilege. Protect your interests. Choose PloetzDefense, the Best Defense, the Wise Defense.
In selecting the best Attorney for you, the Attorney who you speak with on the phone should unquestionably be the Attorney representing you in Court. In many up start, boiler room operations, your case is appraised by a non-attorney investigator, a paralegal or an inexperienced intake attorney assigned to field client phone calls that particular day. In some cases, the attorney you speak with has recently decided to expand his/her area of practice to include Criminal/ OWI/ Traffic Offenses solely for the purpose of “expanding” their bottom line. Other times, the retained attorney is tentative, not knowing the ins and outs of this area of law, only proceeding when reassured by a consulting, more experienced attorney. Moreover, some attorneys apply the King Leopold II routine---creating wild, unreasonable client expectations at a lengthy initial interview only to be retained by a client who finds out the true reality of a case well into the proceedings. Don’t accept merely adequate representation with your alleged OWI or Traffic Citation offense. Retain the best Attorney for your specific individual case. It is your case, your liberty, your record. Choose experienced, skilled representation, a steady legal hand. Finely crafted legal defenses are your right. A credible, convincing legal presentation of your case is the expectation. Sound legal representation begins at the outset, directly after the police encounter. Protect your rights immediately with a capable, respected Trial Attorney at your side.
