Welcome
Christopher Bandt, President
Wisconsin Defense Counsel (WDC) is a statewide organization of attorneys dedicated to the defense of Wisconsin citizens and businesses, the maintenance of an equitable civil justice system, and the education of its members.
WDC’s over 500 members firmly believe in the rights of the injured to be fairly compensated; equally they believe that the defendant’s rights are crucial to the integrity of the court system. The defendants they represent, as well as their insurance carriers, must also receive fair and equal treatment under the law.
Our legal system can only be preserved when the fragile balance of impartial justice is maintained.
WDC members are advocates for the rights of people or businesses sued. Our primary role is to provide a professional defense for people and businesses involved in civil lawsuits.

2021 WDC Advocate of the Year Award Winner
The recipient of the 2021 WDC Advocate of the Year Award is Sheila Sullivan, Bell, Moore & Richter, S.C.. Sheila’s nominator notes that, “Sheila is a quiet, unsung hero in the insurance defense field. She has single-handedly taken over the editing of the Arnold Anderson book on Insurance Law that is considered the ‘bible’ of insurance law.
