Attorney Patrick J. Stangl has been a practicing criminal defense lawyer since 1991. He maintains a solo practice devoted to defending people accused of crimes. His practice is statewide and he practices in State and Federal trial and appellate courts. He has successfully defended cases ranging in complexity from drug conspiracies and murder charges to domestic abuse. A major focus of his practice is the defense of drunk driving [OWI, DUI, DWI, BAC, PAC] charges.

The term OWI is an acronym for "Operating [a Motor Vehicle] While Under the Influence of an Intoxicant and represents a term of art used in Wisconsin for "drunk driving" [OWI, DUI, DWI, BAC, PAC]. The terms are really synonymous and also apply to the operation of a motor vehicle while under the influence of a "controlled substance." He has successfully defended numerous Wisconsin OWI cases and all types of criminal cases in both State and Federal Courts.

Attorney Stangl’s philosophy in drunk driving [OWI, DUI, DWI, BAC, PAC] defense is that unless the State is offering a plea agreement that is significantly better than going to trial and losing there is no really good reason to plead guilty and not proceed to trial. In drunk driving cases [OWI, DUI, DWI, BAC, PAC] unlike many other charges in State Court, more often than not there is very little incentive to pleading guilty and as a result he prepares every drunk driving case for trial. This is very different from the vast majority of other lawyers who simply assume they can not win your case and plead you guilty.
