I was facing a first offense DUI with a .12 BAC. The officer pulled me over for what he thought was an inoperable license plate bulb at 2:30 in the morning. Through Pat's due diligence, decades of experience, and knowledgeable acquaintances he was able to get the DUI charge dropped prior to a jury trial by proving the officer made an illegal stop. I highly recommend Pat as he will ensure all bases are covered in your case regardless of the situation.

I recently hired Pat when I was looking at thousands in fines, months in jail and losing my gun rights. Pat immediately got to work collecting and looking at all the evidence and talking with the DA. He told me everything I needed to do proactively to better my chances in court. I followed all his advice while he took care of all the court appearances and conversations necessary. I did my part and he took care of the rest. In the end he was able to get all the charges dropped except for a disorderly conduct charge. I couldn't be happier with the outcome, a couple hundred dollars in fines and 1

I made a really bad decision that will forever affect my life. One that I am truly regretful for and it added an insurmountable amount of stress in my life. Someone recommended that I reach out to Pat and so I did. When I did, Pat understood how I felt and knew that I wanted to get past this mistake. One thing that I respect about Pat is in our initial conversation, he was transparent and honest. He answered all my questions thoroughly and reassured me that he will do what he can to help me. In the end, he was able to get my felony OWI charge dismissed and down to the bare minimum with zero jail

Pat instantly instilled confidence and security in our first consultation as I was a complete wreck. He guided me through a criminal defense for three (3) years of horrific and unfortunate false allegations. I can’t praise him enough for his remarkable efficiency and professionalism. He handled every detail in a seamless manner from start to finish and put me at ease. He’s a factual lawyer who not only is knowledgeable, persistent to fight and extremely determined - but also became my friend through this process. He offered excellent advice and different situations/scenarios that we would never

We can’t say enough about Pat! We were dealing with a serious legal situation concerning our son and of course thinking the worst! Pat was professional, courteous, knowledgeable and put our minds at ease almost immediately upon meeting with him. He gave our son, my husband and I hope that he could manage our case and solve his legal issues. Pat did EXACTLY as he said, the outcome couldn’t have been any better! If you are in a legal situation that seems dire, call Pat!

I was indicted in federal court for embezzling funds from a bank and another organization. I was also charged in state court with the same thefts. I discovered Pat Stangl and called him up about potential representation. I also spoke with some other prominent criminal defense attorneys in Wisconsin. I ultimately hired Pat to help me based on a number of reasons including his experience in defending white collar cases in federal and state courts, his stellar reputation and proven track record of winning hard cases. I could also tell when I met him that he would do everything to help me.
