Not Every Criminal Case Looks the Same
Some charges carry greater penalties than others, but even a lower-level offense may affect your record or require you to comply with court conditions. If you aren't sure what a conviction could mean for you, getting legal advice can provide a useful perspective before you simply plead out.
Your History Can Matter
A prior conviction or pending case may affect how prosecutors or the court approach a new allegation. Attorney Ruby De León can consider your circumstances as a whole rather than looking only at the charge on the paperwork.
Complications May Not Be Obvious
Employment and professional licensing concerns, immigration consequences, or questions about driving privileges can make a seemingly straightforward case more complicated. Domestic violence allegations and OWI charges, in particular, may involve consequences beyond the underlying criminal allegation.

Recognized in the Legal Community
A Commitment to Excellence in Every Case
You Don't Have to Wait for a Crisis
You don't necessarily need to hire a lawyer for every interaction with law enforcement or every citation. But if you're unsure what to say, how to respond, or whether a decision could affect your future, an early conversation with our lawyer can help you make that decision with more and better information.
A Direct Line to Your Attorney
Facing a criminal allegation can feel isolating, particularly when you aren't sure what the legal process means for your life. Ruby takes an approachable, personal approach to criminal defense, making time to understand what happened and explain your options in terms you can understand.
As a solo practitioner, Ruby works directly with the people she represents rather than passing them from one lawyer to another. She also speaks English and Spanish, reflecting her commitment to making legal help accessible to Milwaukee's diverse community.
De León Law Office offers video consultations and is available 24/7 for people who need to discuss a legal concern. If you're uncertain whether your situation calls for representation, you can start with a conversation about what you're facing and what your options may be.
