About Attorney John Holevoet 

After being admitted to the bar, he became an associate attorney at Van Wagner & Wood, a criminal defense firm headed up by Attorneys Christopher Van Wagner and Tracey Wood. In 2010, John started his own practice to provide client-centered criminal defense. His work included both trial court advocacy and appeals. He even had the opportunity to argue a Fourth Amendment issue to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. After several years, John broadened the scope of his legal efforts by working for a dairy trade association and dairy cooperative, which allowed him to work on issues close to his farm boy roots. In 2022, John partnered up with his friend Sasa Johnen to start Johnen & Holevoet. There, he handles cases ranging from traffic tickets to serious sexual assaults and homicides.

He is admitted to practice throughout Wisconsin and in federal court for the Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin. He is a member of the State Bar of Wisconsin, Dane County Bar Association, National Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys, Wisconsin Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, and Dane County Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys. He has attended several trainings from the National College for DUI Defense and is one of the few attorneys in Wisconsin to be trained on the EC/IR II, the breath testing machine used by Wisconsin law enforcement.

When not at work John's interests include a variety of outdoor activities, architecture, and baking. In fact, his baked goods are pretty well known by court staff throughout southern Wisconsin.
