About Walter
Biography
For nearly 20 years, I have aggressively defended OWI and criminal cases throughout Wisconsin. My practice is statewide, focusing solely on drunk driving, criminal and traffic defense. Over the last 18 years, I have successfully defended hundreds of OWI cases. I have been the lead attorney on more than 150 OWI jury trials.
Prior to working in Wisconsin, I was a law clerk for the Nebraska Department of Motor Vehicles. My job was to assist in implementing the OWI implied consent law in Nebraska, and I worked with the administrative law judges in conducting administrative OWI hearings.
My years of experience practicing in Wisconsin and my former law clerk experience have given me a unique perspective from both sides of the aisle. I fully understand the necessity of having the represenation of a qualified attorney in an OWI case.
My goal is to provide aggressive legal representation for DUI,traffic and criminal offenses.
A qualified DUI attorney can help you fight your charges or simply answer questions you may have.
Experienced with traffic citations and familiar with courts and prosecutors throughout Wisconsin.
