Strategic OWI and Drunk Driving Defense Litigation

In Wisconsin, operating while intoxicated allegations carry severe consequences, ranging from hefty fines and license revocations to mandatory jail or prison sentences. As skilled dui/dwi defense lawyers, Garuz Legal Group examines every element of the prosecution's evidence. The firm evaluates the legality of traffic stops, scrutinizes officer administration of standardized field sobriety tests, and challenges the scientific validity of blood and breath analysis results. Additionally, operating as experienced traffic ticket lawyers, the legal team defends drivers facing reckless driving and major moving citations, helping clients preserve their driving privileges and professional livelihoods.

Domestic Abuse Allegations and Restraining Order Defense

Wisconsin domestic violence statutes mandate strict arrest protocols and trigger automatic seventy-two-hour no-contact orders that can immediately ban you from your home. Serving as compassionate domestic violence lawyers, the firm defends individuals facing battery, disorderly conduct, and domestic abuse injunction hearings. The attorneys move rapidly to modify restrictive bond conditions, interview witnesses, and present the full context of interpersonal conflicts to prevent damaging criminal convictions.

High-Stakes Violent Crime, Weapons, and Felony Defense

When prosecutors file serious felony charges, early intervention can make the difference between freedom and years behind bars. As formidable violent crime defense lawyers, the firm represents clients facing substantial battery, armed violence, and weapons charges. Attorney Garuz excels in pre-charging advocacy, frequently communicating with prosecutors before formal charges are filed to present exculpatory evidence, mitigate allegations, or have investigations dismissed entirely.

Controlled Substances and Property Offense Defense

Operating as dedicated criminal defense lawyers, the practice handles the full spectrum of misdemeanor and felony property and narcotics allegations. Their strategic representation includes:

• Vigorous advocacy by drug crime defense lawyers against unlawful searches, vehicle seizures, and drug trafficking allegations.
• Tenacious defense led by theft and burglary defense lawyers in retail theft, burglary of a building, and white-collar fraud.
• Aggressive probation revocation defense to keep clients in their communities rather than serving prison sentences.
