A lifelong Wisconsin resident, Brady was born and raised in Green Bay and has built his academic and professional career around serving the people of his home state. He earned his law degree, cum laude, from Marquette University Law School, where he distinguished himself both inside and outside the classroom. Brady served on the Executive Board of the Marquette Law Review as an Articles Editor and became a published student author. He also competed in Moot Court, earning the “Best Appellant Writing & Advocacy Committee Member” award for his advocacy skills.

Service has always been a central part of Brady’s journey.

He also interned with the Wisconsin Supreme Court and completed a dual Master’s degree in Political Science.

Before attending law school, Brady graduated from Wisconsin Lutheran College in just three years while competing as a member of the men’s soccer team. He served as the team’s academic tutor, participated in Mock Trial, and led the Pre-Law Society as president. Brady was also an active member of both the college choir and chamber choir. One of the highlights of his collegiate experience was having the opportunity to perform as part of a choir that sang backup for renowned tenor Andrea Bocelli.

Outside the office, Brady enjoys staying active, following professional soccer, cheering on Wisconsin sports teams, singing in choir, and exploring new places with his fiancée. Whether working with clients, colleagues, or community members, Brady believes that strong relationships, careful preparation, and genuine care for others are the foundation of effective advocacy.
