I practice as a criminal defense lawyer because I believe that the rights of all depend on the rights of one. As a result, each person's rights must be vigilantly safeguarded against the powers of the state. An unfettered state results in the very tyranny our Founding Fathers sought to protect us against with the Constitution.
I have devoted the last 30 years of my life as an attorney to this pursuit. With the law firm of Walden & Schuster, S.C., I continue to do so for clients just like you throughout the Waukesha County area in a wide variety of criminal defense matters, including DUI, domestic violence, juvenile cases and drug-related charges.
In doing so, I follow a baseline philosophy: effective legal representation depends on individualized services. For that reason, I have intentionally structured my legal practice in order to enable me to focus on you, the individual.
My focus on each individual client enables me to learn the facts that can determine the outcome of your case. It also means I can help you understand the legal options available in your particular case so you can choose from them intelligently and with confidence whatever the circumstances. Your confidence will stem from the knowledge that my experience means I hold a legal judgment that has been tried and tested many, many times, often by situations very similar to the situation now facing you.

Amazing Attorney! Must read this review!
Earlier this year, I was charged with a Felony. If you were like me, you are probably freaking out, thinking your life and career are over. I called a lot of attorneys and many of them were going to charge tens of thousands of dollars. I received countless letters with scare tactics to tell me how “s...

Couldn't have been represented any better.
I would highly recommend Craig for any legal defense you may unfortunately come to need. From the onset of my case, Craig calmed my nerves by explaining in the simplest of terms, what happened, what will soon happen, and the potential outcomes. After allowing Craig to handle all aspects of my case, I...

Craig M. Kuhary OWI Case
Mr. Kuhary did a fantastic job for me in my case. I am an Illinois resident that needed a lawyer for an OWI case and I am beyond pleased with the amount of work Mr. Kuhary did for me, and the outcome of my case. He was honest and straight forward with me regarding the entire process, and about my opt...
