Russ is an amazing attorney. He stood by my every step of the way even when I had a mental break down after i had been convicted. ( Russ didn't go down without a fight though, easily the best criminal defense I had ever had) he helped me through everything and even though I ot convicted instead of going to prison like the DA asked for i got three years probation with no jail time thanks to Russ' arguments. Thank you Russ, for everything.

I can’t say enough good things about Sean and his staff. I had a very messy divorce. I worked with another lawyer for seven months and he did very little for me except continually remind me that Wisconsin was a 50/50 state and that even though I brought significant assets into the marriage while my ex had, none, I earned about three times more during the marriage, and we were only married for a short time, I was going to have split everything 50/50 with him. He pressured me to agree to a very bad mediation deal.
Luckily, before having the judge finalize the mediation agreement, I came across Sean‘s reviews on Google. I wasn’t just looking at how many stars he was given but I read what people wrote about him. People repeatedly commented on his commitment, his dedication, and going the extra mile. I made an appointment for a consultation with Sean. Within the first five minutes of our meeting, he said, “Let me show you what the law actually says, I have had to educate other counsel and judges about this.” He printed off the actual law where it states that Wisconsin is a 50/50 state after consideration is made for the following items, which included length of marriage, what each brought into the marriage, and the length of the marriage.
After talking a little more, he asked why I didn’t have a restraining order and I told him that my previous lawyer told me it was 50/50 whether I would get it and that it would be inflammatory and work against me even though I felt very unsafe and threatened. Sean appeared very upset after hearing this, and disagreed, but continued to be professional and not bad mouth the other lawyer.
Sean was very brave about taking on my case this late in the game with a fast approaching court date and so much information to take in. Also, my ex hired a lawyer who I had heard said is the best divorce lawyer in La Crosse. I wholeheartedly disagree, because Sean definitely is the best.
I am still in awe of the commitment Sean made to helping me get a fair trial and a great outcome. I would see emails from him sent on weekends and in the middle of the nightat times. It was so reassuring to know he was on my side and so determined. He blocked out several days of his calendar so that he could familiarize himself with my huge stack of documents. As soon as I retained Sean as my attorney, I finally felt like I could relax and let him take care of it. I knew that no matter what happened with the results of the trial, I would be satisfied, because I had the best representation I could possibly have.
My hearing went on for two days. Sean was relentless in his effort to get me a fair trial and justice. In the end, the judge decided to divide the assets 80/20 in my favor. I did not get everything I wanted, but that never happens in court. It was about $70,000 that Sean saved me based on what my previous attorney was forecasting with a trial outcome.
In some ways, more importantly, Sean gave me the opportunity to tell my story and have it validated by the judge. He was so committed to making it clear that I tried so hard during the marriage and that my ex was dishonest and completely took advantage of me. It seemed that Sean felt a moral obligation to not let my ex take more from me and to have his greediness and dishonesty exposed.
I will also say that his staff was very friendly and hard-working. Sean went out of his way to try to save me money when he could by having me do some of the legwork if I wanted. He kept me consistently updated on status and promptly responded to all of my messages. Hopefully I will never need counsel again, but if I did, I would definitely retain Sean again. If it were possible to give him 10 stars, I would.

Sean took great care of everything from the jump. He worked with me on payment, as well as gave me practical and reasonable legal advice. He didn’t over promise but certainly delivered. I hope to not have to use his services again but he would be the first I turn to if I ever do.

My experience with Pittman & Pittman law offices was amazing. I've been living in Wisconsin for 8 years. Before I moved to the US I graduated as a human right lawyer in Haiti. And a good quality of a lawyer is to explain the process and I don't think anyone could've done a better job than what Mr. BERENDES has done. I was really impressed with the professionalism he treated everything. And he's always responds to your message on time. Best law office in La Crosse.

Margaret (Peggy) represented me during my divorce. My ex-husband and I were going to try to do a pro-se divorce on our own. The paperwork was very difficult to navigate. There are huge tax implications of done incorrectly. We had met Peggy prior to our divorce and we both know she is a wonderful person. She was kind, listened, and very talented. She is extremely knowledgeable and does not waste any time. She made a very extremely difficult stressful time for us easier to manage. She is genuinely honest and trustworthy person that cares deeply for her clients and will ensure that you are taken care of.

I started out with several false allegations including two felonies and several other misdemeanors. I had a very kind lawyer starting but soon realized that being kind was not going to cut it. Not only that but I could never reach her and felt as though my case was being left on the desk.
Chris was recommended to me by the WI State Bar. I first contacted him when seeking representation for a civil suit resulting from false allegations that I was currently fighting. I soon learned that Chris was not just another "money hungry" big city lawyer..I began hours of research before calling him and soon decided to give him a call. He sat down with me at no cost and was straight forward with the seriousness of the alleged charges. What started out to be just a consultation about a possible civil suit turned into a substitute of counsel of Chris for my previous lawyer in my criminal case as well.
I am a VERY demanding client, especially in the situation I was in and Chris kept me 100% informed and took every last one of my concerns into careful consideration. I went from having a lawyer whom I could not contact for the life of me, to having a wonderful lawyer who would respond to my e-mails within minutes every-time!
I myself had lost hope of my dream to become a lawyer due to my false allegations and Chris turned that around for me. Not only did he use his aggressive and highly intellectual style to get my false allegations dismissed, but also has taught me a lot about my future career path. I feel as though I not only have began to get my life back but have also made a friend and mentor as well. We have a long path ahead with my civil suit an, but I have deep faith in Chris helping me to achieve the best possible result for my future.
Before you lose hope....call Chris!

We met Chris and had the opportunity to benefit from from his services several years ago, and he has remained both a friend and our attorney ever since. Chris is a caring person and took control of our case with not only excellent knowledge and professionalism, but with honest care and concern for us personally as well as our situation. When we first met Chris, my husband had a serious problem that could have had a horrible outcome. Chris kept my husband's spirits up and kept me, the wife, totally informed of every step of the way. No matter how serious the situation seemed, Chris met each challenge with confidence and the knowledge to bring our case to a perfect outcome. We highly recommend Chris. We don't know how to sing his praises high enough! We hope that we never have to go through the situation we did, but should something similar ever arise again, or we need an attorney for any reason again, Chris will be the first person we call on. Sometimes trying to find an attorney can be difficult as they all say the same things on initial meetings because they want your business. When you meet Chris for the first time, you will immediately see the difference between Chris and all of the others and you will know you don't need to look any further, Chris is the attorney you need to get the job done.

Scott Curtis is very capable lawyer who has helped me immensely. He helped me file a small claims suit and arrange a settlement. Without him, I would have been completely at a loss for legal advice and guidance during a tumultuous time in my life. I highly recommend him. He's very honest, open, forthright, and he has a high degree of expertise in his field. I honestly wouldn't have preferred to have my case handled by anyone else. I can fully recommend him as a competent and reliable attorney to guide you through your legal troubles and fight for you and what you are justly entitled to under the law.

The name lives up to this guy's reputation. Seriously. If you're in trouble, the FIRST thing you should do is give Keith "the Beast" Belzer a call. I went to court with him for some minor offenses and I felt like it was cheating. Got away with just a slap on the wrist, and a lesson well learned: call Keith. He has also helped out numerous buddies of mine with much more serious offenses, all with exceptional results. this guy doesn't play around. He's sincere, works hard, and gets results. If you've ever seen Pulp Fiction, imagine having "the wolf" as your personal attorney. Get into a sticky situation? Your solution is just a call away.

Tom has the life experience to know how to get his clients what they deserve. Tom listens to what you feel you need and he does everything in his power to get that and then fights for more. Speaking from experience life after a major accident is very hard to overcome. Without Tom Fitzpatrick I would have been forced to settle for much less. Tom cares about his clients and he is not afraid of the courtroom and his opponents know this and try to settle fairly to avoid dealing with him in front of jury. I can't advocate enough for Tom Fitzpatrick if I'm ever hurt again I keep his card in my wallet and you should too.

I hired Tom to represent me in a Workers Comp case...mostly because he was the first (and only) person to call me back quickly and have me come in for consultation. He was very knowledgeable in representing me.....this wasn't his first rodeo. He advised me along the way, and although the case took over a year, I was very happy with the settlement amount, and the amount paid to Tom. He made sure all loose ends were tied up before reaching an agreement with the opposition.

Mary Anne assisted me with my divorce. She made me feel comfortable through a difficult process, kept me informed, was attentive to me as an individual, and was extremely kind. She took the time to know me as a person, understood me as an individual, was thorough, knowledgable, and always on top of things. The opposing attorney frequently took personal "shots" at me in her correspondence. Mary Anne helped me stay calm, and encouraged me to take the "high road", stating that she takes the "family" in family law seriously, trying to help keep families working together as much as possible, instead of tearing family members down, She is honest and caring. She works hard to help her clients understand the process. She firmly negotiated with strength, and she did it with class and efficiency. Mary Anne helped me understand the reasons for her approaches in negotiating, which was very helpful. She was conscientious of my pocketbook, which was most appreciated. She gave me tasks to aid in my "case" which was helpful in empowering me. She has a wealth of resources available to help her clients, and an excellent staff with whom she works. Mary Anne Kircher is the best!
