I am a native of Bedford, Michigan, just across the state line from Toledo, Ohio. When I'm not defending clients, I enjoy coaching high school basketball, supporting Cleveland, Ohio's pro sports teams, and taking walks with my family and our dogs.
I was inspired as a young man to become an attorney who was dedicated to defending his clients and ensuring their rights were protected. As a criminal defense lawyer, I have handled hundreds of high-level felony cases, as well as more than 1,000 defendants charged with misdemeanor offenses.
I believe in straightforward honest communication with every client and strive to make sure my clients have all the information they need to make informed decisions about their lives.

Worth Every Penny!
I hired Mr. Wisehart as a defense attorney for felony criminal charges and he was a lifesaver! He is an experienced criminal attorney who is highly regarded and respected in the communities where he practices. Mr. Wisehart was understanding of my circumstances and handled my case with distinguished...
"I have known Troy personally for over 10 years. He is knowledgeable, hard working and dedicated to his clients. You cannot find better legal representation for your criminal law/DUI matter. I highly recommend Troy Wisehart!"
"I've worked with Troy on several cases, both on opposing sides and in representing co-defendants, and can attest he does an excellent job advocating for his clients. If I were ever in a situation where I was charged with a criminal offense, Troy would be one of the first calls I'd make."
"I contacted Troy for some clients who had a legal issue in his jurisdiction. He was prompt to return my call, polite, well spoken, and professional. Even though I just called as a courtesy he took the time to explain the local procedures and I felt very comfortable sending my clients to him. Should you ever need a capable criminal defense advocate in his jurisdiction definitely get ahold of Troy first, he's the real deal!"
"Troy is, hands down, the very best criminal defense attorney in the region. If I were to ever find myself in need of a criminal defense attorney, Troy is, without question, the person I would want by my side. I unabashedly and wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer."
"Very well prepared; takes great interest in each case, which is reflected in the outcomes he achieves"
"Troy is passionate about his clients and the quality of work he provides. He's a true professional. I endorse this lawyer."
"I have known Attorney Troy Wisehart for nearly 10 years. I find him to be an outstanding criminal attorney who is respected by his peers and members of the law enforcement community. He treats his clients with professionalism yet is compassionate of their circumstances. There is no better criminal attorney in the area."
