Rowdy Glen Williams

Rowdy brings an extensive and proven trial background to criminal defense representation in Terre Haute and the surrounding Wabash Valley. He has handled well over one thousand criminal cases, both as a former deputy prosecutor and as a criminal defense attorney. That experience gives him a deep understanding of how criminal cases are charged, investigated, and prosecuted, as well as how they must be defended when a client’s liberty, reputation, and future are on the line.

Rowdy has the legal knowledge to analyze the complexities of any criminal offense and the courtroom experience necessary to aggressively defend the accused. He firmly believes that the strongest defense is often a proactive one. He rigorously tests the State’s evidence, challenges police conduct, and confronts the prosecution with every viable defense supported by the facts and the law.

His trial experience includes serious felony cases such as murder, major drug offenses, child molesting, burglary, battery, sexual battery, and other high exposure criminal matters. In addition, Rowdy routinely represents clients charged with operating a vehicle while intoxicated, including OVWI offenses involving alcohol, drugs, or controlled substances. He understands the scientific, procedural, and constitutional issues that frequently arise in OVWI cases, including traffic stops, field sobriety tests, chemical tests, and license consequences.

As a former deputy prosecutor, Rowdy knows exactly how the State builds a case and what must be done to dismantle it. If you are facing any criminal charge in Terre Haute, whether a serious felony or an OVWI offense, Rowdy is prepared to protect your rights, challenge the prosecution, and fight for the best possible outcome.
