Experienced criminal defense attorneys 

The best lawyers to call on your worst day

"I feel better after talking to you."  

Most people never expect to need a criminal defense lawyer. When clients call us for the first time they are often going through the worst days of their life. By the end of our first conversation many of our clients tell us that the fear and uncertainty that comes with being arrested or criminally charged is much better, because they know that they have an experienced team standing with them.   No matter the circumstances, we will stand with you.  With more than twenty-five years of fulltime criminal expertise between them, Attorneys Christopher Zachar and Meredith Davis have represented thousands of people charged with crimes and won not guilty verdicts, dismissals, and favorable outcomes in serious cases in La Crosse, Vernon, Monroe, Trempealeau, Jackson, Buffalo, Crawford and Richland Counties, and throughout Wisconsin.  We protect people under investigation, charged with a crime, or seeking a pardon or appeal throughout state, federal, and appellate courts in Western Wisconsin.
