misdemeanor defense
a misdemeanor charge should not be treated like a minor problem
Being charged with a misdemeanor can be easy to underestimate, particularly when the charge does not carry the same potential penalties as a felony. But a misdemeanor is still a criminal matter, and a conviction can create consequences that extend beyond the immediate sentence.
Depending on the charge and circumstances, a case may affect employment, professional licensing, finances, family relationships, firearm rights, and your criminal record.

misdemeanor charges attorney weege handles
Misdemeanor cases can arise from many different circumstances, from an argument that escalates to an encounter involving alleged theft, property damage, drugs, or other conduct. Attorney Weege represents clients facing charges that may include:
- Disorderly conduct
- Battery
- Criminal damage to property
- Theft
- Drug possession and other drug-related offenses
- Domestic-abuse-related offenses
- Resisting or obstructing an officer
- Other misdemeanor criminal charges
The fact that two people have been charged with the same offense does not mean their cases should be handled the same way. The evidence, background, circumstances, and client’s priorities all matter.
If you have been arrested or cited for a misdemeanor offense, contact Attorney Weege at 262-399-7258 to discuss your case and the next steps.
when a criminal case affects your family
Domestic-abuse-related cases can become particularly complicated because the criminal case may affect relationships, living arrangements, contact between family members, firearm rights, and sometimes related family-court matters.
Once law enforcement and prosecutors become involved, the person who originally contacted police does not necessarily control whether a criminal case continues. These cases can also involve conflicting accounts of what occurred, allegations made during highly emotional situations, questions of self-defense, and evidence that does not tell the complete story.
Attorney Weege reviews the circumstances carefully and helps clients understand both the criminal charge and the potential consequences surrounding it.
If you are facing a misdemeanor charge involving a family member or domestic relationship, contact Attorney Weege at 262-399-7258 to discuss the circumstances of your arrest and the potential consequences.
every case requires a careful review of the evidence
A police report presents the government’s version of what occurred. It is not necessarily the entire story. Depending on the case, relevant evidence may include witness statements, photographs, text messages, surveillance footage, body-camera video, medical records, physical evidence, or other information that provides additional context.
Attorney Weege reviews the evidence, listens to his client’s account, identifies potential weaknesses or legal issues in the government’s case, and explains the available options. Those options may include seeking dismissal or reduction of charges, negotiating an appropriate resolution, filing motions when warranted, or preparing for trial.

understanding the criminal process
Receiving a citation, being arrested, or appearing in court for the first time can be confusing. Clients often have questions about what they are allowed to do, whether they must appear in court, what conditions they must follow, and what will happen next.
Attorney Weege helps clients understand each stage of the case and the decisions that may need to be made along the way. Early legal advice can also be important when evidence needs to be preserved, witnesses need to be identified, or a client has questions about communicating with law enforcement.
If you believe you are being investigated for a crime but have not yet been charged, you do not need to wait for charges to be filed before speaking with an attorney.
If you have been charged with a misdemeanor or believe you are under investigation, contact Attorney Weege at 262-399-7258 or through his contact form to discuss your case and any deadlines that may apply.
