Who we are
About Strang Bradley
Strang Bradley is a small firm of skilled and experienced trial lawyers. We are passionate about what we do and dedicated to providing intelligent and innovative legal representation with an unwavering commitment to justice for our clients. We specialize in civil rights, personal injury, and criminal defense.
Civil Rights
Strang Bradley has built and maintained its reputation as Wisconsin’s leading civil rights and police misconduct law firm. We represent more clients in police misconduct litigation than any other law firm in Wisconsin (see our recent civil rights cases). With our extensive experience litigating civil rights cases in federal court, we help our clients obtain results, regularly holding those accountable by obtaining civil rights judgments against those who violate our clients’ constitutional rights (see our recent civil rights jury verdicts and judgments).
Personal Injury
Our firm is in the business of fighting and winning. At Strang Bradley, one of the defining features of our personal injury practice is our commitment to our clients and their families. We are accessible, responsive, and sensitive to their needs. As your attorneys, we will be by your side throughout the duration of your legal matter.
Criminal Defense
Strang Bradley is consistently recognized as one of the top criminal defense firms in Wisconsin. At Strang Bradley we represent people across Wisconsin in state court and nationwide in federal court in legal matters that profoundly affect the lives of our clients and their families. We take pride in the fact that we help real people tell their stories, fight back, and save their liberty, their reputations, and what matters most in their lives.
Appeals
Strang Bradley regularly represents clients in appellate proceedings in both state and federal court and in both criminal and civil matters. Appellate law is a different craft than trial work: it demands rigorous legal research, precise writing, and persuasive oral argument — and it’s what we do. We identify the errors that matter, preserve the issues that win, and frame arguments appellate judges find compelling. Whether you’re challenging a verdict, defending a judgment, or seeking post-conviction relief, we know what it takes to prevail on review.
