Jeff W. Nichols Law Office

Facing criminal charges is difficult. Do not face criminal charges alone.
You need an experienced criminal defense attorney to assist you. Even when you think that you may not proceed to trial, an experienced trial lawyer can make a difference. Case review and analysis may reveal a defense that may not be readily apparent to an untrained or inexperienced eye. When proceeding to a jury trial is not an intelligent choice, you need an experienced criminal defense lawyer negotiating with a seasoned prosecutor. When conducting a jury trial, experience is a must.
PAY ONLY FOR THE SERVICES YOU NEED. According to a 2008 report, only 1 percent of completed criminal cases in Wisconsin’s Circuit Court system from 2005-2008 went to trial. 1 The vast majority of the remaining cases were concluded through negotiation. I charge a reasonable flat fee for representation through an early negotiated plea bargain settlement, an additional fee for pretrial litigation (if necessary), and a final third fee if your case warrants proceeding to a jury trial. Some lawyers want to charge you a large flat fee that would include payment for a trial even though the likelihood of conducting a trial is small.
I have handled thousands of criminal cases since 1991. I have conducted jury trials in State and Federal court. I am admitted to practice in all trial and appellate courts in Wisconsin, the United States Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of the United States. I would appreciate the opportunity to put my experience to work for you.
