If you are in need of an experienced criminal defense lawyer, attorney Donald Zuelke has practiced law for over 25 years, representing clients almost exclusively in criminal cases, and has successfully tried many jury trials and bench trials.

He has represented thousands of individuals in criminal defense matters, including everything from DUI cases and various misdemeanor and felony cases to first-degree murder.
