If You’ve Been Arrested, Time Is Not On Your Side
If you have been charged with a crime, every day that goes by may be a missed opportunity to protect yourself from life-changing consequences. A misdemeanor or felony conviction will result in the stigma of a criminal record that can affect you in employment, housing and other areas of your life. If you are an immigrant, it can affect your ability to stay in the United States.
At Welch & Schmeiser Criminal Defense Group, our lawyers know the challenges you are facing. We have helped over one thousand clients deal with criminal charges such as OWI (also known as DUI), domestic violence, theft, assault and sexual assault. Whether this is the first time you have been accused of a crime or if you have past convictions, we are here to minimize the consequences. Our law office is in Madison, and we defend clients throughout central and southern Wisconsin.

Creating The Strongest Possible Defense
Days or weeks can pass between your arrest and your first court appearance. That doesn’t mean the charges will go away. Now is the time to take steps that will put you in the strongest position to defend your life and your future.
Our lawyers will take immediate steps to minimize the consequences you face, including:
- Reviewing the state’s case for possible weaknesses
- Collecting evidence that will support your side
- Helping you take steps to put you in the best possible position in court, such as enrolling you for a qualified treatment program
