We worked with Theresa to draft and negotiate our legal contract in a surrogacy arrangement. From the initial consultation all the way through the completion of legal clearance, Theresa was an absolute pleasure to work with.
When our clinic provided a timeline by which legal clearance was needed, Theresa went out of her way to ensure the contract was negotiated and signed by all parties with plenty of time. She was quick to respond to our calls and emails, and made herself available to us as needed to meet our timeline.
Theresa was able to confidently discuss and explain the intricacies of the laws and the contract in a way that made it so easy for us to understand what we were agreeing to. She answered our questions and made sure we felt comfortable and supported in the decisions we were making.
From start to finish she was knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and professional. We would highly recommend working with Theresa.

Susan LaCava is such an advocate for the home owner! When my bank tried to grab my house with an escrow scam, Susan’s skill and experience made a huge difference when negotiating a settlement. She knows when to push hard and when to settle. She saved my home. And, while this was an extremely stressful time, I must admit that it was amusing to watch her train the pompous corporate attorney that worked for the bank.

In my capacity as General Counsel of a publicly traded company, I was a client of Hamang's over several years, including hiring him as lead outside counsel for the acquisition of a technology-based entertainment company. Hamang's substantive knowledge of applicable law was outstanding. He is the type of attorney who "makes" rather than "breaks" a deal. He also has an engaging and open personality.

Thanks to attorney Olivier Reiher, i have been able to settle a
fractious legal case. Olivier was able to solve a contentious problem, where the other party was incredibly unreasonable.
I would recommend attorney Reiher who is very professional.
He understands the nuances of the law. He knows how to read the opposing party. Siker Furniture is grateful to Olivier Reiher.

We recently had to terminate a partner at work after he was aggressive with coworkers. Unfortunately, we didn't have a lot of time and the situation got messy quickly. Nilesh saved the day with instantaneous solutions for us to protect our interests, and well thought out options on how to move forward and shield any potential claims against our business.
Nilesh's experience is invaluable saving us both time and money if we had attempted to navigate this issue alone.

While working, I was in a major vehicle accident. I contacted Carrie and consulted with her that I wasn't at fault but I was worried that the injuries would leave me unable to go back to my work as a professional driver. I am a single mother with my work as my sole income to take care of my child, pay mortgage and bills. Carrie helped me at so many different levels giving me the peace of mind she had my back and she was going to see me through this with the best outcome possible. I needed someone I could trust because this was my lively hood and I wanted to keep what I worked so hard to get. I was at risk to loose my job and my home! Carrie was right with me all the way informing me what to expect and the best way to go about prioritizing what needed to get done and when to get it done. I was pleased we accomplished what we had set out to do from the beginning. I was able to get back to work, get a settlement and keep my home! I hope I never have to experience this kind of trauma again, but if I do I will contact Carrie again.

I am a former client of Daphne Webb and want to endorse her as an excellent divorce attorney. Her training, skill, knowledge, and experience has made the difference for me and it will make the difference for you too. Her skills far surpasses other attorneys in her field of work, without a doubt. No one can review a situation, sort out the more important facts and act on them as she can. She is sensitive to client’s needs and situations, along with the nature of her field and respects the fact that it is a hard time for most involved. Her processes confirm that sensitivity, proceeding with care and planned results. She isn’t the least expensive attorney, but she is the most affordable with all that she provides her clients and her accomplished results.

I highly recommend this Attorney. I worked with Felice on creating a Will for myself and had a lot of questions about it. She was very patient with all of my questions and explained everything in a way that I could easily understand. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was as I wanted it to be. I definitely trust her with any future legal needs I may have.

Joshua represented me for a small claims case involving an individual who claimed to be a professional auto body repair, but in actuality, literally destroyed my BMW due to his negligence/inexperience. The 3 auto body repair shops I took it to for estimates totalled the car (it would cost more to repair his mistakes then the car was worth ~ upwards of $10K).
When other lawyers did not seem interested in taking the case, Joshua took it to heart and made sure I would get some sort of justice. In fact, he did, and I was granted the judgement we had asked for. I would hire Joshua again in a heartbeat.

I am a restructuring consultant and I have worked with Ginger on four matters over about ten years. In every one she has been extremely timely in her communications, detailed and prepared in her legal work, and clear in her verbal communications. She also sees the matter from the client's perspective, so that if it is simply procedural, she explains the why and when; if there are legal strategies to be weighed , she explains the pros and cons to prepare the client to make a decision.
She has helped in a unique state of Wisconsin receivership action under which a retail chain was sold for full repayment of the secured; in an out-of-court debt restructuring, which included a forbearance agreement and debt covenant re-set; and a contentious chapter 11 proceeding, where she served as counsel to the Chief Restructuring Officer. Potential litigation in this matter, in particular, was new territory to me, and Ginger's easy and confident style as well as legal-eagle drafting prevented tensions from rising too high.
All of the matters were successfully concluded from the client's perspective.
I strongly recommend Ginger as a partner for any restructuring, creditor's rights or bankruptcy matter, and I would be delighted to work with her again.

I was referred to Brandon via the Lawyer Referral & Information Service of the State Bar of Wisconsin regarding a legal matter which other attorneys seemed reluctant to even talk to me about. We spent about an hour or so discussing my case and he gave me some very good advice. I didn't hire him because he felt that my case was out of his range of expertise, but he did provide me the name of a firm that might be willing to help me rather than just dismissing me or (worse) taking the case and not being able to do a good job for me. I felt he was very compassionate and concerned about my problem, and I appreciated that.

Consistently provides excellent advice and resources. Is extremely knowledgeable and persuasive. Has tremendous network of contacts and great breadth of firm to provide legal services in which he is not expert. Possesses great respect from his colleagues, City staff and elected officials as well as the general public.
Constructive criticism: Could delegate a bit more to other attorneys when his plate is full, and it often is.

I've known Corey Lorenz since law school so when I needed to consult with an attorney on a litigation matter, I knew just who to reach out to. As always, she was incredibly intelligent, professional, and kind. She made me feel comfortable, helped me to understand an area of law that I was unfamiliar with, and was a committed advocate. I would highly recommend her.
