Practice Areas Description
Purnell Law Office provides legal representation on the following areas of practice:- OWI/Drunk Driving
Suspected drunk drivers in Wisconsin face more scrutiny today than at any time since the first automobile rolled off the assembly-line. The accepted alcohol levels have been lowered while the penalties have escalated to the point that we are sending people to prison after repeated convictions. Police conduct impaired driving sweeps of certain areas periodically during the year to apprehend otherwise good people for OWI. It doesn’t take much, in terms of alcohol consumption, for a normal person to find themselves over the limit and headed to jail. Attorney Jeff Purnell is intimately familiar with the nuances of the laws affecting people accused of OWI in Wisconsin.
- Juvenile Sexual Assault
When your child is questioned by authorities about a Juvenile Sexual Assault case, it is important to have a Wisconsin Criminal Lawyer who is familiar with Wisconsin Laws governing such matters. Many times police will show up at the residence of the suspect under the guise of simply asking a few questions. Parents often allow the police in and sit down with their child and the police to discuss the matter. That initial conversation often provides the foundation for a conviction of some kind in a Juvenile Sexual Assault prosecution. The juvenile is not yet under arrest, and the police are not legally obligated to read the child Miranda warnings. Any statements are considered Voluntary, and will be used against the child.
- Drug Crimes
It is important to understand the two paths to defend Drug Charges in Wisconsin. These cases can be defended by attacking the Law (police conduct, which is attacking the things the police did during the arrest), or the Facts (which is done by attacking the allegations that the defendant actually possessed the drugs). Attacks on the Law are done with motions to suppress evidence, while attacks on the Facts are made in a trial to a Jury.
- Gun Crimes
In Wisconsin, most gun crimes are broken down into Felons Possessing Firearms, or any individual possessing a "concealed weapon". I've also defended people accused of handling a gun while intoxicated. There are details in these laws which make them very different charges. Of course, many charges include enhancers for committing a crime "while armed".
