Brian P. Dimmer
About Brian
Biography
A Green Bay Wisconsin native, I love all things outdoors. I enjoy running and nightly trips to the Y to unplug from busy days. I am an avid summer fisherman, a fall hunter, and a winter Lambeau Field frequent. I am listening to music over half of my waking hours, and I divide my attention between a handful of books. My best personal qualities are my determination, ability to relate things to others, and creativity.
I began my legal career in the Fox Valley, where I divided my time between criminal defense and family law. Since 2012, I have focused predominantly upon criminal defense, especially OWI-DUI work. I have successfully defended clients charged with a range of criminal charges -- everything from an OWI-1st to greater felony charges. Great representation and defense begins day one, with knowledge of who a client is, where they come from, and what we can do to protect the client's rights, livelihood and liberty.

Recommendation of Brian Dimmer
I retained Brian Dimmer to represent me in a DUI case that lasted 22 months. Throughout this process Brian demonstrated professionalism, knowledge of the law, and patience in dealing with inept prosecutors. The case was resolved to my satisfaction and I would highly recommend this attorney.

Mr. Dimmer was able to bring my case to a suitable conclusion....
