Drug Crime Defense in Wisconsin

Wisconsin prosecutors take drug charges seriously, and depending on the substance and amount, the same conduct can be charged as anything from a misdemeanor to a serious felony. Many drug cases also turn on a single question that has nothing to do with the drugs themselves: was the search legal? That's often where a defense begins.

Examples of charges we defend:

• Drug Possession — Including marijuana and other controlled substances.

• Possession With Intent / Delivery — When the State alleges you meant to sell. (Phase 2)

A note on marijuana: it remains illegal in Wisconsin for both recreational and medical use, even though neighboring states treat it differently — a fact that catches a lot of people off guard. Possession can still be charged here.

Beyond fines and possible jail, a drug conviction can follow you for years — affecting work, housing, financial aid, and firearm rights. That long tail is the real reason these charges are worth fighting, even when they seem minor.
