Violent / Gun Crimes

Zwach Law Group violent crimes and gun crimes defense attorney in Milwaukee

Prosecutors in Milwaukee County take violent crime and gun charges very seriously. These cases often involve assault and battery, armed robbery, carjacking, having a firearm as a felon, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit, and other weapons-related offenses. Our Milwaukee criminal defense lawyers are familiar with the local judges and prosecutors who handle these cases. We know which arguments are effective and how to work toward reduced charges. Whether you are dealing with a misdemeanor battery or a serious felony weapons charge, we offer the experienced defense you need.

Drug Crimes

Drug charges in Wisconsin range from simple possession of marijuana to large-scale drug trafficking and manufacturing. These cases often come down to issues of intent, knowledge, and possession. Were you actually in possession of the drugs? Did police have probable cause to search you? Was your confession voluntary? Our Milwaukee drug crimes lawyers file motions to suppress evidence obtained through illegal searches and seizures, challenge coerced confessions, and fight unconstitutional police procedures.

Sex Crimes

A conviction for a Wisconsin sex offense charge could mean incarceration in jail or prison, probation, and registration as a sex offender, not to mention severe damage to your reputation. Prosecutors and sexual assault investigators work especially hard to obtain convictions in Wisconsin sex crime cases. Consequently, sometimes those investigators violate the constitutional rights of someone under investigation for rape or a sexual assault offense just to get a conviction. Zwach Law Group, LLC lawyers work just as hard to protect your rights and help you obtain a successful outcome.

White Collar Crimes

White collar crimes in Wisconsin cover many offenses, such as fraud, embezzlement, identity theft, credit card fraud, forgery, money laundering, and other financial crimes. These cases usually involve complicated financial records and need attorneys who know both criminal law and financial matters. If you are facing state or federal white collar charges, our Wisconsin criminal defense attorneys offer skilled legal help. We team up with forensic accountants when needed, question the government's financial analysis, and create strong defenses for clients accused of fraud or theft.

Domestic Abuse Crimes

Domestic violence arrests in Milwaukee can happen quickly. A single call to the police can result in your arrest, criminal charges, and a restraining order that removes you from your home, often before any real investigation. Domestic abuse charges can change your life immediately. Our Milwaukee domestic violence attorneys understand how urgent these cases are, so we act quickly to challenge restraining orders, protect your parental rights, and build your defense against charges like domestic battery or strangulation. False accusations often occur in these stressful situations. We examine every detail and work hard to defend your rights.

Theft and Property Crimes

In Wisconsin, property crimes include retail theft (shoplifting), burglary, robbery, auto theft, identity theft, fraud, and receiving stolen property. If the stolen property is worth less than $2,500, the charge is usually a misdemeanor. Theft of more than $2,500 is a felony. Burglary, robbery, and identity theft are always charged as felonies. Our Milwaukee theft defense attorneys work to challenge the prosecution's evidence, negotiate for reduced charges when possible, and look for alternatives to jail time. Many first-time offenders can avoid a conviction through deferred prosecution or similar programs. We explore every option to help protect your future.
