While I am relatively new to Wisconsin, I bring years of professional experience to my role as an associate attorney at J. Kippa Law. I have both civil and criminal litigation in my background, but vastly prefer the world of criminal law. My primary experience is as a prosecutor. I am licensed in several states and began my career in Virginia as an Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney in City of Norfolk where I worked for 8 and ½ years. During my time there, I obtained successful results in a wide variety of felony cases, including homicides, armed robberies, sexual assaults and drug trafficking. I recently relocated to the Fox Valley area and was fortunate to work as an Assistant District Attorney in Outagamie County. In this role, I assisted law enforcement in the investigation and prosecution of high level, felony drug trafficking cases. I also served as a member of the Outagamie County Drug Court. I bring my extensive expirience from years of prosecution to now assist those who have been charged with crimes.

Attorney Bruen is a dedicated, hard-working lawyer. I have worked with and against Attorney Bruen on a variety of cases and always find her to be a strong advocate for her client. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a lawyer.
