Criminal charges can have serious consequences, including jail or prison, fines, loss of driving privileges, and a permanent criminal record. Even cases that may seem minor at first can affect employment, housing, and other parts of a person’s life. At Raff Law, I represent people throughout Wisconsin who are dealing with criminal charges, investigations, and related legal matters.

My practice focuses on criminal defense. That includes representing clients who have already been charged with a crime, as well as people who are under investigation or facing other legal proceedings connected to the criminal justice system. Every case is different, but effective defense always starts with understanding the facts, reviewing the evidence, and identifying the legal issues that may affect the outcome of the case.

As a solo attorney, I personally handle every case from start to finish. That means preparing for hearings, negotiating with prosecutors, filing motions when necessary, and representing clients in court. Below are some of the types of cases I regularly handle.
