I would like to Thank Klain and Associates for fighting for me to get my disability. I applied in Dec. 2021 and I was just approved 10/2025. They kept in close contact with me and I was never in the dark on my case.
I was in so much pain all the time, and they took the Hassel out of applying. Thank you, again everyone. I appreciate you all.

Jaclyn was my attorney for over a year. She listened to my concerns, answered every email I sent and was very thorough in every step of my case. She was an advocate and fought for me. She is passionate about her clients; you can tell she truly cares for them. I highly recommend her.

Anderson, Boback, & Marshall were great. Jessica Sindel and Jessica Marshall had the patience of saints when dealing with me through such a tough process. It felt like we shared a common goal and reached the expectation that I had in spite of the other side making some very wild claims... I was able to overcome all of that with their help and at no point did I feel like they were billing me unnecessarily nor refusing to take steps to make meaningful progress like other firms I had to deal with.

The guidance and expertise you will receive from Richard Hanus and his staff is second to none. I found Richard and his firm through an in depth Google search and taking note of his reviews and “super lawyer” awards year after year. I could not be more pleased with the result, and everything about the process was efficient and streamlined, which included making sure my green card applicant wife quickly received her employment authorization and travel document while waiting for her green card. All of these documents were processed according to Richard’s estimated timelines, including the recent approval of her adjustment of status and green card. Also remarkable was Richard and his team’s consistently rapid response. From the beginning to the end, Richard Hanus would explain all the steps and even when I would randomly have questions throughout the process, he would respond to my phone call or email in a timely manner. I do not believe I ever sent an email and had to wait more than 3 hours for a response. Richard is someone that will hold your hand and take you to the end. A big thank you for making this process easy and simple for us.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible legal representation I received from my Attorney Andrew Domin regarding my worker's compensation case. When I first reached out to him , I was lost tired and scared by the complexities of the system at my job , but Attorney Andrew immediately put me at ease with their clear explanations and unwavering commitment to advocating for my rights. Throughout the entire process, they demonstrated an unmatched level of expertise in workers' comp law, meticulously reviewing every detail of my case and ensuring all necessary medical documentation was properly submitted. Andrew & his assistant Lulu dedication to my case was exceptional, always keeping me informed of every development and promptly responding to any questions or concerns I had. Thanks to my Attorney Andrew's aggressive negotiation tactics, I was able to secure a settlement far exceeding what I initially thought possible, allowing me to focus on my recovery without the added stress of financial worry. As I brag about Domin law firm his assistant Lulu was also so helpful and knowledgeable with the questions a I had. And also gave me the right answer researching until she got the correct answer. I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Andrew Domin ( Minkow Domin Trail Attorneys Firm ) to anyone facing a worker's compensation claim or any case for that matter ; their professionalism, compassion, and genuine desire to achieve the best outcome for their clients are truly unparalleled. Andrew P. Domin , Lulu . Ms. Dionne you guy's are the best . If your looking for EXCEPTIONAL CARING ONE ON ONE REPRESENATION CALL ANDREW DOMIN .

I can’t express how grateful I am to Keating Law. After I was car-doored by a delivery truck while riding my bike on Milwaukee, the Keating team made sure I got what I needed to be able to pay my medical bills. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine kindness built my confidence in them from the start. As a teacher, my schedule is pretty strict and structured around the school year. Keating worked around my schedule to ensure I could be as involved as possible. I cannot recommend them enough!!

He advised me through my uncomfortable ordeal , using language I could understand regarding all the legalities of the division of our property. He is a ( soft spoken ) force of nature and then some.

I retained Ms. Fetman for my divorce. It's difficult to know where to turn when you're faced with a divorce. Few of us have any prior experience with the legal ins and outs. I chose her due to her strong track record. Talk about a force of nature! She was extremely professional. She was honest and told me things I did not want to hear. I feel a good attorney gives clients bad news. In divorce cases there is always a good deal of bad news to be given. Ms. Fetman and I got along very well. She was always courteous and throughout my case I was able to trust her. She was realistic, stayed focus on the goal, explained the divorce process, met procedural timelines, always prepared and we had consistent communication. The most important step for me was finding a good divorce attorney that I trusted and liked. I am happy to say I found a competent attorney, she made my life and divorce easier and my case was concluded quicker and and I felt very happy!

Professional, Experienced, Empathetic and Passionate about successfully resolving the client's case.
I was a client of Corri Fetman. Corri is one of the most knowledgeable and professional attorneys whom I have had the pleasure working with. What I admire about Ms. Fetman is the passion for her profession. She is precise in her strategies and treats every case with equal importance. She communicates with the client at every milestone of the case and will go to the extent of providing guidance in a counseling kind of way, with a friendly ear that you can vent to. She understands that resolving a marriage has a significant impact on the lives of the client and his or her family and is able to be empathetic while providing a logical backbone to the case. Corri will never make false promises and will allow the client to make an educated decision which is based on ethics and law.
In addition, this professionalism extends to Corri’s Paralegal Team. Communication with Mallory is a simple and streamline process in an organized manner. Mallory understands that this is a hard time in the client’s life and communicates with friendliness, understanding and empathy, without the loss of patience from multiple reminders. Documentation is always sent on time with plenty of lead time to the deadline and equally, she is always willing to listen.
The one thing that a client must understand is that this will be an emotional time in their life. This is a time when sound judgement does not always exist. For this reason, surround yourself with friends and family who can provide support. From the legal side, an experienced attorney will make sure that your future is not jeopardized. While the exact outcome of the case cannot always be determined one thing is certain, you can rest assured that Corri will take proper action in order to resolve the case with minimal costs and the least amount of time needed for the case resolution. Most of all, she will be your anchor while proceeding through the case and will not let you sink.

Morgan and her team handled my divorce case. Everyone was professional, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. Thru every step of the way they fully explained my options and even suggested steps that they felt would be successful and contain my legal fees. Their communication thru the process was excellent and responded same day with any questions or concerns. Sure, I paid slightly more in legal fees, but the bottom-line is the final result which far exceeded my expectations. Morgan gets 5 stars and a high recommendation from me!

I was never left in dark about what to expect during my proceedings. She is very straight forward and honest. She and her team were quick to respond to any and all of my questions or concerns. I would highly recommend Morgan and her firm as they are extremely professional and honest. You will not be disappointed with her services.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You
A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.
Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?
Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:
- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.
The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.
