It is my privilege to recommend this excellent law firm! They work hard, fair, honestly, and professionally. My mom tripped and fell and shattered her elbow at a gas station from a broken floor. The did an amazing job representing my mother. They always replied to our emails and phone calls. They got my mom a fair settlement. I highly recommend hiring this law firm!

I was referred to this law firm after I slipped and fell on ice outside of a restaurant and broke my elbow. From the beginning they handled everything with class and honesty. I was unable to travel due to my injury and they handled everything digitally which alleviated a lot of pressure on me and my family. They always treated me with respect and I always appreciated the honesty of Attorney Sperling. The settlement was great and more than expected. I highly recommend this law firm.

My local attorney recommended Attorney Ralph Tease at Habush, Habush and Rottier S.C. after I was injured in an automobile accident. Attorney Tease, along with Paralegal Lisa Karcz, deserves a 5 star legal representation that made a difficult experience as painless as possible. Attorney Tease exceeded my expectation and handled my case with expertise. They are very courteous and kind. They kept in contact with me during the time it took to settle with the insurance companies. I would recommend Habush, Habush & Rottier S.C, to anyone who is in need of a lawyer. I will use them in the future should the need arise.

I was recommended to Attorney Tease through a friend of mine after I was in a car accident. Attorney Tease was very helpful in all aspects of my complex case. There were multiple insurance companies including Workers Compensation involved. I was extremely happy with the communication throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Attorney Tease.

After a rear end accident I was hounded a couple times a week from the other insurance company to settle. I said my car is in the shop and was for over 2 months and I am in so much pain and going to a chiropractor and a physical therapist weekly and until all this is fixed I will not settle. Nothing I said deterred them from continuing to hound me to settle. I felt intimidated by them and they had me worried so I knew I needed an attorney. I called Habush Habush and Rottier because they had a great reputation. I got in that week for an appointment to see if they would take my case. I was lucky enough to be greeted by Ed Vopal an attorney at the firm. He was a very mild mannered person who was very caring calming in his questioning of me about the accident and that is exactly what I needed. I left our first meeting feeling safe and secure knowing I was going taken care of. Ed worked very hard on my case and had a huge binder of paperwork involving the accident. He was wonderful on his preparing me for a deposition with the attorneys from the other insurance company and kept me calm in my answers. I could go on and on about Ed but all his office staff was just as wonder always so warm and friendly in their calls to me or when I was in the office. They are a great team. I will forever be grateful to Ed and his staff for all they did and the settlement I received and would highly recommend Ed to anyone looking for a great attorney to represent them.

She did an amazing job negotiating with the DA and helping me out of a mess that was scary as I had no criminal charges in my life prior to this situation. Jessie is also affordable, but works harder than any lawyer I have ever known. Thank you Jessie!

Jessie is very down to earth and always returns calls/messages in a timely manner. I was so happy with Jessie and her experience, she is worth every penny.

I was terrified by the serious felony charge I was being accused of. I immediately started searching for a qualified attorney in Eau Claire and hired Jessie Weber. The first time I met with Jessie, she was very easy to talk to about every detail in my case even though some details were embarrassing. She was exceptional with communication and very professional in the courtroom. She defended me with no judgement the entire time and was able to get me a really good outcome where I could keep a clean record with no conviction at all. Being convicted of a felony would have been devastating and life changing to me as a young adult. My future looks completely different now then I initially thought it would. Hiring Jessie was an excellent decision and I’m forever grateful. I wouldn’t even think twice about hiring Jessie for any case!

In addition, Doug is the most kind, compassionate, soft spoken person who has that inordinate knack that puts you at ease with his even level headed approach to his clients.

My accident resulted in injuries including multiple rib fractures and a totaled car. We tried for over a year to work with the at-fault driver’s insurance co thinking we didn’t want to involve attorneys. There was so much back and forth, and the insurance co wouldn’t even make themselves available before 8:30 or after 4:30 because it wasn’t convenient for them. They assigned different reps ranging from ‘Claims Generalist Associate’, ‘Claims General Int (does this mean intern?)’, etc. So frustrating! Then they gave me a lowball offer saying they wouldn’t go higher. I asked close friends for the name of the attorney who had successfully handled their case decades ago – Attorney Fehring. From the first contact with Attorney Fehring and his paralegal Shannon, they handled my case respectfully and professionally; advising what they thought and outlining options. In the end, they were able to secure far more than we were while they handled all the interactions. Thank you to Atty Fehring and Shannon. I appreciate all you did to help me through this.

Larry was recommended to me by a co-worker after I had been injured in an automobile accident. From the initial consultation through the settlement, Larry thoroughly explained every step of the process at the appropriate time. He always kept me updated on the status of my case. I rarely had need to ask a question but when I did, Larry or someone on his staff always returned my call or email promptly. Larry worked hard all the way to the end to get the best possible settlement. The entire post-accident experience with Larry and his staff could not have been better - I would highly recommend Larry to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney.

Laurence Fehring has my unequivocal and enthusiastic recommendation. I have a difficult time envisioning an individual who chooses Mr. Fehring and comes to second-guess the decision. My knowledge of the Milwaukee legal community runs broad and deep. A car accident at the end of calendar year 2012 -- caused by the negligence of another driver -- left me with injuries, bouncing around from physician to physician and from one physical therapy session to another. Mr. Fehring's name found its way to my "short list" of lawyers for a potential representation. After one preliminary consultation I knew he was the lawyer I wanted. In our initial meeting he manifested kindness, authenticity, amiability, strong listening skills, and more than a measure of wisdom. As time unfolded he proved to be especially -- in some circumstances nearly instantaneously -- responsive to all inquiries I posed via email. No less important, the team of assistants with which he works consistently struck me as every bit as diligent, skilled, and caring as Mr. Fehring, bespeaking (I am speculating here; but I'm comfortable doing so) the talent he and his partners have for training others. My claim against the insurer of the negligent driver settled out prior to any complaint being filed -- as Mr. Fehring had indicated in our initial meeting is the case with more than 85% of the representations he undertakes. I was pleased it did -- even though, at times, my anger at the negligent driver engendered in me the desire to tell my story on the witness stand. To repeat, to my mind Laurence Fehring is both an outstanding lawyer and a terrific person. Having the two rolled into one makes for a can't miss choice.

I quickly made the accident of hiring another attorney I had used for something else and found myself lost in answers..I read through reviews and called Kevin Martins office where he was quite aware he would still have to split the money I receive with another attorney and YET even though this isn't the biggest case ever him and his assistant have been extremely thorough, I can always get a hold of someone, they make me feel cared for when I have felt the world is ending, and most of all I never feel like I am "a pain" when I call or email frequently.

When she first started representing me, I thought I knew how I wanted everything to go, even against her recommendations, and when she advised me to just let her take care of things, her secretary told me, “Just trust Amanda”…..and I’m so glad that I did! She not only stopped me from sabotaging my own case, but she took care of everything, and got even more, and better, results than I was even asking for. And she did it fast! I could not have done these things myself. If I had to sum it all up in a few words….Amanda got things done!

Attorney Reis made the process of my case as simple as possible and there were never any questions left unanswered. From the time I first met Attorney Reis to the final closing of my case, I had the upmost confidence we would put up a great fight for what’s right! I always felt very respected and welcomed at Habush Habush & Rottier and Attorney Reis always made me feel that all of his cases were equally important. I never imagined there would be any positive outcomes of such a negative experience and I’m beyond thankful and grateful for Attorney Reis and Habush Habush & Rottier.

Hired at 325$ an hour with expectations he'd be motivated, diligent, and accurate was not what I received. He had to be reminded constantly that I was waiting patiently for action. Which I got charged for. He waited so long to act he lost track of details. When asked why he didn't submit documents, he didn't feel it was necessary. He consumed money by making mistakes, I had to correct, then charged me. Failed to gather ALL information given to him so he had to correct and reserve 4 ppl and amended court documents costing me more money. Overall, I wasn't impressed. He was fired, showed up to court anyway then charged me. He must be hard up for $$$. That he has to take money from a single woman that has a limited income to fatten his wallet. This is my perception of my 10month encounter with Steve and $7,000+ dollars later. It took Steve over 9 months to get a court date. Documents only require 20 days to respond. Thats a lot of wasted time. Steve was hire in Feb. I was expect to have the house on the market in the spring. His lackadaisical approach is frustrating. Emails were written and a special meeting was made to get my point across. Steve didn't need my signature to withdraw from my case. Him showing up for court was an obligation to the court system not me, as he no longer was my employee. He charged me for drive time and the time he waited to tell the judge he was terminated. He's not a stand-up guy in my book. My advice, go somewhere else.

Atty Koch walked me through every step of my high conflict child custody case. My case was very contentious. He managed my expectations at the first meeting and told me what the most likely custody that I would be awarded. He never sugar coated anything. He was prompt at returning phone calls and emails. This was a rough/stressful time in my life and I was confident I would get the results we talked about. Upon meeting Atty Koch, he made a statement to me that had helped me through the months of the court process “the wheels of justice grind slowly”.... meaning everybody wants court to be done yesterday- including myself.... but that isn’t the case. Be patient. If I ever need a lawyer again I already know who I’m calling.

He was always available by phone or e-mail when I had questions, and I had a lot of questions. He really went above and beyond for me and for that I am forever grateful.

Erich handled my motorcycle accident from start to finish. It was a great relief to have him iny corner through the journey, especially when all the medical bills and legalities started piling up. I was able to focus on my recovery, healing, therapy, and getting better. Erich handled every detail, and on the end, got me 100% settlement! Thanks for all the hard work and help Erich...you rock! I wouldn't have made.it through so easy without you! Dennis

Erich made me feel safe and cared for. From the very beginning, once I called him, he guided me through the overwhelming process. His advice was priceless. I recovered from my injuries and financially was made whole. I cannot emphasize enough how easy he made the process. Professional with a soft touch is how I best describe him. I don't look forward to my next accident/injury, but I do know I'm covered with him in my corner.

My situation was a slip and fall at the apartment complex I lived in. At first the company whom ran the apartment complex refused to do anything. So, I went to renters’ right’s and they would not take a slip and fall case. I was actually told the answer was to move. This took me back for a moment, but did not stop me. I did some more research and found the place I needed to write my concern was the “Department of Agriculture”. After the letter the company then emailed me to have the bills sent to the insurance company. By this time approximately a year and a half passed since the slip and fall and the bill was still not being taken care of. I knew renter’s rights was not going to help and trying to find a lawyer who would take my case was very slim. I called many lawyers and was turned away because of how much time had passed and a slip and fall is difficult to prove in Wisconsin. I must say I was very discouraged and felt hopeless. Being I felt a wrong needed to be addressed, I kept looking for a lawyer. So, by chance I called “Bye|Goff|Rohde” and after talking to Brian about my slip and fall. He took my case A Year and a half later. In the end it was a victory! Afterwards I asked Brian why he took my case. His said it was because of what I said. Bye the way, the slip and fall happened in 2018 and the settlement happened in 2022.

Brian is an excellent lawyer. Even the judge at the end of the trial told the jury they had “witnessed very good lawyering.” Brian presents with maturity and surety that seem to far exceed his years. I really respect the way he used his talent and coupled it with a competitive nature to get results and yet at the same time always showed genuine concern, consideration of my opinions, and patience with me during the entire process. Going to trial is nobody’s desire, but when I took the stand, Brian made it very easy for me to say the truth. I felt assured by his command of all the details and I truly appreciated his best efforts. Making that phone call to Bye, Goff, and Rhode was one of the best decisions. I would highly recommend Brian and I want to thank him and his staff. The results speak for themselves!!

Instead Luke told me exactly what the process would look like, realistic timelines as to how long the process would take and even step by step directions on what I should do if I chose not to use a lawyer. Luke and his team have been very responsive to my emails regarding my cases. Based on my results from my first case I know that he goes over and beyond to make sure you are compensated fairly.

There was always excellent communication and we always felt informed. We were kept up to date as our case progressed.

I cannot recommend this firm enough! I was a passenger in a severe car collision and sustained injuries that are still impacting my daily life. Ric Domnitz came to my home for our first meeting. He spoke to us - not at us (which is one fear I had dealing with a lawyer). He was sure we understood everything that was happening every step of the way over the years. He and his staff were always available to answer any questions or to reassure our concerns. I never felt alone or confused in this entire process. It was stressful and scary but I strongly believe I only made it through to the end because of Ric Domnitz and his staff's ability to be in the fight with me. We were a team and in the end, we won. Thank you Ric and staff for all you did to help me and my family get through this lengthy process!

Paul was straight forward but encouraging and knows his profession to a "T". We went to trial and witnesses were called. The witnesses that were called told me that Paul made them feel comfortable on the stand, even when nervous his smile and demeanor reassured and calmed them. His arguments showed his years in a successful practice. Things ended up what was best for our family and I would recommend Paul Cornnett to anyone.

I engaged Paul's legal expertise to help me through a grueling divorce years ago from an emotionally-abusive spouse when my children were toddlers. With his guidance, I was granted sole legal custody of my children and primary placement. Most recently, Paul successfully represented my family in the termination of my ex-spouse's legal parental rights and the successful adoption of my children by my new spouse. Paul has been a rock - he's a fair, honest and non-judging advisor who knows our local court system and authorities inside and out. Worth every penny when I think of how life could have turned out for my children and me. I would recommend Paul to any parent/spouse dealing with complex end-of-marriage and custody issues.

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You

A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.

If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.

When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?

Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:

  • Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
  • Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
  • Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
  • Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
  • Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
  • Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.

Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.

What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?

A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
  • Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
  • Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
  • Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
  • Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
  • Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
  • Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.

How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?

Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:

  • Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
  • No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
  • Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.

Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.
