Regarded for her legal experience
Wisconsin native and attorney, Tracey A. Wood is a shareholder with the Madison criminal defense firm of Van Wagner & Wood. With published Wisconsin and federal wins, Attorney Wood's victories are as notable as they are numerous - there was her acquittal in the largest military theft case ever charged in Wisconsin, a post-conviction win that freed a woman from a 10-year long prison sentence, a recent appellate victory that reversed a refusal, a recent 4th OWI Test Reversal by the Wisconsin Court of Appeals, a recent OWI conviction overturned (defining 'operating' under Wisconsin laws) and numerous drunk driving dismissals, acquittals and appellate wins.

Grant, 129 S. Ct. 1710 (2009) for the Wisconsin Law Journal, Attorney Tracey Wood is widely regarded as an authority on drunk driving laws and defenses.
