The House Law Office is dedicated to the zealous defense of people charged with violation of criminal and traffic laws in the municipal, state and federal courts of Wisconsin.   Steven House has years of experience focused on criminal and traffic law with an emphasis on the defense of impaired driving, controlled substances offenses and appeals.  Our philosophy is that cases should go to trial where there is no substantial benefit to reaching a plea agreement and any possible issues for appeal should be preserved through representation and the trial court level even if a case is expected to be resolved by settlement. 

 

     The office is located directly across the street from the Dane County Courthouse in the historic Trelfall Building.   Please call (608) 443-7522 to schedule a free half hour consultation.  The House Law Office primarily represents clients throughout Wisconsin and will provide consultation on matters of federal drug and analogue act law nationally.

"We as criminal defense lawyers are forced to deal with some of the lowest people on earth, people who have no sense of right and wrong, people who will lie in court to get what they want, people who do not care who gets hurt in the process.  It is our job - our sworn duty - as criminal defense lawyers, to defend our clients from those people"  -- Cynthia Roseberry
