Attorney Schroeder prepares every case as if it were going to trial.
Attorney Schroeder has obtained dismissals or acquittals at jury trials on charges of sexual assault, burglary, armed robbery, first-degree reckless endangerment, strangulation, felony drug charges, battery/assault and numerous OWI/DUI cases. Through motion practice and successful plea negotiations, Attorney Schroeder has also obtained dismissals or convinced the prosecutor not to bring charges in dozens of felony and misdemeanor cases, some of the most serious cases including charges of sexual assault, drug conspiracies, felony embezzlement, and bomb scares.
In 2021 for the third consecutive year, Attorney Todd Schroeder was selected as a Super Lawyer, one of the top criminal defense lawyers in Wisconsin as published in Milwaukee Magazine. Previously, for seven consecutive years, Attorney Schroeder had been selected as a Rising Star in Criminal Defense by SuperLawyers, a distinction granted to less than 3% of eligible lawyers. Super Lawyers ranks attorneys in each state based on peer evaluations and through independent research.
Attorney Todd Schroeder devotes a significant portion of his criminal defense practice to OWI DUI defense, with much success. He has a reputation for developing effective defense strategies that translate into results for his clients. In multiple cases, he has had felony operating while intoxicated charges reduced to misdemeanors by demonstrating constitutional or jurisdictional defects in prior offenses.
Attorney Schroeder works to maintain his knowledge of OWI and DUI defense strategies through constant training:
Successfully completed the Intensive Summer Session Curriculum of the National College for DUI Defense, conducted at Harvard Law School.
Received Certificate of Completion of Mastering Scientific Evidence In DWI/DUI Cases, hosted by the National College for DUI Defense and the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association.
Annually Receives National Training Specific to OWI/DUI Drunk Driving Cases, focusing on challenging blood and breath test results and field sobriety test results.
In February 2011, Attorney Todd Schroeder received certified training to administer Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, the same training that police receive for sobriety testing through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This training gives Attorney Schroeder a unique perspective and knowledge for understanding the exact requirements for field sobriety testing, and where such testing can fail.
