I was treated with the utmost dignity, respect and compassion from owner David Iancu, my attorney Joanna Fraczek, her assistant Evan and the Front Desk Staff. With amazing kindness and efficiency, Joanna kept my divorce on track and expedited it as quickly as legally allowed. She was an amazing advocate for me, while keeping the outcome equitable and fair.

James Hiller is the best.. I had worked with several attorneys trying to save myself from eviction by the city of Milwaukee who required me to move or buy the property...My story won't end there I also had fines with the city from 2013....Attorney Hiller came through for he worked out a deal with the city Attorney's Office and I am now a home owner mortgage free. He is the Best....

Due to a not-so-good deal I was in, Attorney Hiller provided me with the most accurate details, so that I could make a sound decision. He was very passionate about the legal issues at hand and was determined in seeing it through. He was there every step of the way. I would highly recommend him.

James Hiller is a very good advocate & Lawyer! Mr. Hiller entered our case and did his job with complete honesty. James could have chased the money ahead of this case and instead he gave us every option available for us to decide the next steps. James saved us thousands of dollars and costly time with his great work. James is also a family man and strong in his belief. Honesty is hard to find!

Catherine La Fleur is a very credentialed and highly experienced attorney, and she has an office of lawyers working under her… As an entrepreneur with many business holdings, I understand the skill needed to run a business and develop a team to execute goals.
My case was centered on enforcing a prenup so I can regain control of my assets in lieu of divorce, and I went to Attorney La Fleur for representation and she provided me with her associate Nick Wanic to handle the case with her direct oversight.
What I wish to convey most is that the quality of Cathy’s work and her intelligence is present in her associates, and working with her associates IS working with Cathy.
I am cognitively disabled and this makes understanding certain things difficult for me, and both Attorneys La Fleur and Wanic gave me clear communication and led me to full understanding of everything pertinent throughout my case…and it came with a Win for me, for which I am deeply grateful.
For all of my future legal needs, my first consult will be with Catherine La Fleur and her legal team.

Catherine went anove and beyond to help me with my custody case. She was extremely knowledgeable, and up front, letting me know that this would be difficult but it was possible. It was in fact possible and I got the best outcome not for myself, but for my son. She is personable, and rises to the challenge. Excellent communication. Her entire office staff is great too.

Christopher has worked for me for years. His advise and council has proved invaluable in a broad range of legal proceedings.

I hired Erich almost 3 years ago after an accident. He fought and battled that entire time for me. We were thrown several curve balls throughout the process and Erich knocked them out of the park. 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!

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.

Our brother died unexpectedly and shortly afterwards his long-time caretaker and the caretaker’s attorney produced a will that left our brother’s entire estate to the caretaker. My sister and I were surprised that our brother would not discuss such a big change in his estate plan with us beforehand and after talking to some of our brother’s friends, we were told that this will was suspicious and we needed to retain legal counsel to look into it.
Thank Goodness we took their advice and were very fortunate to choose Trevor Lippman of O’Neil Cannon as our representative. My sister and I cannot say enough to praise the hard work and professionalism that Trevor demonstrated. As this was the first time my sister and I had ever been involved in a legal action, we needed a lot of support and explanation. Trevor's communication skills are second to none and he answered all our questions and guided us through all the issues as they developed.
Our case was very difficult and required much time and effort to build the evidence showing that this will was not our brother’s work. With this body of evidence, we then entered mediation with the other party and were very successful, obtaining 88% of the multi-million dollar estate.
More importantly, Trevor and his colleagues with O’Neil Cannon helped us avoid a lifetime of regret in not knowing what our brother’s true intentions were. Through their dedication and hard work, they gave us the truth about what happened. For this we will be forever grateful and can give Trevor Lippman our highest recommendations.

At first it seemed like a typical estate dispute, but we knew that here was something wrong with the fact that my brother would change his will so dramatically without letting us know. We had never had to retain an attorney and had many questions. Trevor carefully explained every aspect of the case as we went along and helped us understand the legal system. Trevor began the investigation and through many twists, turns and complications was able to discover that our concerns were justified and we were able to retain a significant part of the estate. I cannot say enough about Trevor. He is smart and hardworking, he digs deep into the facts, pulling layer after layer together to tell the true story and he was able to remember everything in this complicated case. He kept us informed of his progress and gave us excellent advice. He is stellar in the courtroom. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I hired Mr. Lippman for a litigation matter for which I obtained a highly successful result due to Mr. Lippman's outstanding litigation skills and strategy. Mr. Lippman is a whip smart and extremely diligent, reliable, conscientious, thorough and hardworking associate attorney specializing in litigation concerning trusts and estates. Working in concert with partner Carl Holborn, Mr. Lippman was able to develop and successfully execute a multi-faceted negotiation, litigation and settlement strategy concerning a complex legacy family trust. Throughout the several-month pendency of the matter, Mr. Lippman provided superb legal advice and representation. I was routinely impressed with Mr. Lippman’s comprehensive grasp of the legal as well practical and personal issues at stake, and with his excellent judgment, good common sense and consistently comprehensive and thoroughly-considered legal and practical advice considering all aspects of the problem. Mr. Lippman has a unique ability to see the big picture and to keep on top of the myriad details at the same time. He also continually keeps the client well-informed on the progress of the matter and is consistently available for in-depth consultation. Finally, Mr. Lippman is an excellent writer and oral communicator, and is extremely personable and an absolute pleasure to work with on every level. He is always a very strong advocate for his client's best interests, while at the same time providing highly practical, realistic and honest advice that the client needs to hear. In sum, I provide the highest possible recommendation for Mr. Lippman for any litigation matter.

James was thorough diligent very informal and he inspired me the most that he had an sincere concern about little old me. He took my case seriously and consulted with me on every hand about what he saw and thought from all points of views, the good and the bad. He asked me after informing me and let me make my own decisions about what I wanted to do. He explained things to me so I would know in detail about what was and what was not. I like to say most of all he had FAITH and believe that GOOD would come out of it all and it did. Research and Due Diligence.

I have hired Johnathan twice over the past couple of years. Johnathan is very supportive and understanding. He takes time to listen. He provides clear and thorough explanations of all options and is transparent in his recommendations. Johnathan is honest and straightforward. He truly cares about justice and equity and will advocate with persistent tenacity on behalf of his clients. I recommend Jonathan as a lawyer for employment, labor, business, and real estate matters. I would also recommend Johnathan as a resource for any other legal needs. He is very knowledgeable and provides sound and reliable advice.

My husband and I hired Jonathan after having a dispute with a contractor. This was the first time either one of us had ever hired a lawyer. Jonathan was highly recommended by a colleague and we immediately understood why. I texted him requesting urgent help on a Thursday night as our issue was time sensitive. He responded that evening and by Friday morning, we had hired him. He was able to efficiently gather enough information to start addressing our urgent concern that Friday afternoon. Within the week, our situation was resolved to our satisfaction. His responsiveness and professionalism was outstanding. He helped set expectations and educate us. He was upfront about expected costs for our case and when we ended up exceeding that, he honored his initial quote. We are in the middle of an adoption and he told us to take the difference of the quote and actual cost of his services and apply it towards the adoption. It was not expected and he certainly was not obligated to do this but was greatly appreciated. If we ever need a lawyer again, we will not hesitate to reach out. I have already provided his information to another co-worker.

My job was eliminated after 18 yrs. I was 1 of 3 over age 60 eliminated. Since there were new employees and less seniority employees , i felt i was let go unfairly with age discrimination. Jonathan fought for a new severance contract against the medical corporation and won. He achieved double the severance i was offered per "their protocol" that was unfair. Jonathan was kind, calm, explained what i didnt understand ( which was most legal terminology!) And worked with me as my own advocate. Advising and suggesting. Timely , tenacious ( did not let down his drive to succeed in our goal.) Smart , timely, direct. I consulted and hired him within 2 days of losing my job. Highly recommend Jonathan.

We're a nonprofit that uses subcontractors to teach workshops and provide storytelling coaching, and over the years, we've developed a good deal of intellectual property such as workshop templates and handouts. Our subcontractors also have access to things such as survey results and participant contact information, so we determined that we should have a subcontractor agreement in place. I reached out to Andrea, and after meeting with me to discuss the specifics, she drafted an agreement which we are now starting to use. She was super helpful throughout the process, answering my many questions with not just the "what" but also the "why". It's a huge relief to have this new tool that will help protect the org's proprietary information - and set clear expectations with our contractors. Highly recommend to anyone else who works with subcontractors.

Having had David as an adversary in the past, there was no question I would hire him when I found myself needing an attorney to pursue a product liability personal injury case for an injury I received. David is smart, experienced, well-spoken, and tough. In addition, he always handles himself with class and the highest sense of professionalism. David's representation of me was superb (with a very favorable result), and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to hire a personal injury lawyer. Much better than those TV lawyers.

David is a true professional and had our best interests at heart at all times. He kept us informed on all developments and always took the time to explain each scenario as they developed. He was always compassionate and showed great concern for our father as he battled cancer. His experts were invaluable as was David's advice to the family before and after our father's death.
Lawsuits and dealing with the death of a family member are never easy - David made the situation tolerable and was able to settle the case with the best results that were attainable.
David is an honorable man with conviction and loyalty.

I was behind on my bills and needed help with creditors. I met with Michele to discuss my debts. She provided me several options to either settle my debt or file for bankruptcy.

Great experience overall having Samir as our attorney, who handled a longstanding matter concerning the use of an easement on our property and the adjacent land. Yes, he is an excellent communicator, responsive, and creative. But most of all practical. His services were cost-effective.

Marcella worked hard to get me the best settlement from the insurance company. When the accident happened I worried about being able to take care of my family. She answered my questions, kept informed through the process and helped negotiate my bill with the hospital. There were times when I felt that the insurance company was dragging this out to get me to take any offer, she reassured me more than once that my case was good and to be patient. I was very happy with the result. I would recommend her to anyone needing a Personal Injury lawyer.

Ms. Thomadsen was referred to me by a friend who is also an attorney, but does not specialize in real estate law. We had a complicated property-line dispute with difficult circumstances around adverse possession. We were able to meet with Ms. Thomadsen fairly quickly. She spent more than ample time with us during our consultation learning about our situation, and then educating us about the law, and all of our options. When we decided to hire Ms. Thomadsen, she was clear in what we could expect from her and what she expected from us - when and how she billed, etc. With each exchange of information and updates as we moved through the process, Ms. Thomadsen would take the time to review scenarios and next steps with us. She never pressured us to choose one option over another, but instead provided information, support and her experience so that we could make the best decision for us. She spent as much time as we needed so that we were comfortable in with each step we took. She was timely in her responses, and she was fair in her billing. Our case ended favorably, and best as it could. Ms. Thomadsen was outstanding to work with, and I would recommend her to anyone that needs a real estate attorney.

Peter Ramirez is a lawyer that I have personally observed to do superb work in the area criminal defense in the many cases I have personally watched him handle. In the matter, which he handled for me, it was a family law case, every lawyer's worst night mare. A very bad case, a once in lifetime case it was that bad, with most of the odds and many unfair factors stacked up against our position. Attorney Ramirez really showed his expertise, knowledge, strategic planning to be able to obtain what I believe was the most most favorable of all the possible outcomes that could happened to my surprise, which was clearly not a likely scenario. I and my children will be forever en-debited to him. Had I just went with Peter as my first Lawyer my case would not have spiraled out of control like it did. I give him my highest rating coming from a person that works in a related field. Peter was both compassionate, yet tough. Peter is a well respected member of the Milwaukee Latino Community.

While it is unfortunate that I needed to engage counsel for an action against one of the major brokerage and investment banking firms, I am very fortunate to have been introduced to Sean Sweeney of Halling & Cayo. Simply stated, Sean is an outstanding attorney!
Sean is smart, professional, methodical and tenacious, which is precisely what I need given the complexities of the case and who opposing counsel is. Additionally, unlike many litigators who come off as being aggressive and combative, Sean is soft spoken, reasonable and tempered. I do not doubt that he can flip the switch when and if he needs to, but his demeanor seems to be that of a deal maker with one eye towards settlement and the other towards trial, as opposed to others who might only want to fight, sometimes at the expense of their clients. I also appreciate how Sean has explained everything in detail and how he quickly responds to my questions.
Although we are not yet finished, I am absolutely confident that Sean will resolve the situation favorably and timely and I look forward to seeing a positive outcome in the end.
It is therefore with great pleasure and no reservations that I can highly recommend Sean Sweeney.

Recently hired Sean to review a business contract. We were so impressed with how thorough Sean was. When he met with us to go over the contract, it was obvious he has some mad skills. I would have thought he spent a week studying the contract for how well he knew in it cover to cover. He didn't miss a beat! We later needed his assistance to amend parts of the contract, which he took care of that day, although he didn't think he would get to it until the next business day. His amendments were dead on with what we needed. We are so impressed with his knowledge and the kind & humble, yet confident way he handles himself. He has give us the best experience and service we could ever hope for in legal matters. We will continue doing business with Sean. So happy we had found you!! Thank you Sean!

Anthony is a great attorney and is very knowledgeable in construction law. He was very responsive to my construction issue and was quick to identify the key issues in our insurance claim. The firm is top-notch!

While building our new home we had to part ways with our original builder due to plans not being followed and finished the home building project with a second builder.
I talked to two other attorneys that were closer to my location but I chose Anthony even though I would have to work with him remotely because he was not condescending and got back to me within a day (usually hours) instead of days or weeks.
Anthony always responded to my texts, phone calls and emails very quickly. His attitude, approach, knowledge and professionalism was extremely helpful in getting to the end of a difficult new home construction that took 2 years, 2 builders and multiple legal letters. The legal letters were very helpful in getting people to do the right thing when their workmanship or service was poor.
Through multiple issues Anthony helped me understand the different options and then helped me execute the approach.
He also handled any of the difficult contractors that usually wanted to run over me until I started sending their communications through Anthony.
In the end the money I paid Anthony was well worth it and I was very pleased with the outcome (without going to court) regarding ALL of my construction issues.
I would recommend Anthony for any building or remodeling issues.
Thanks

I had asked SEVERAL attorneys (including our closing attorney AND our family attorney) and most of them told me just to forget it. ONLY when pressed, the closing attorney (not my family attorney who I count on mind you) told me that we should take it to small claims court at least. All the other people in the transaction made us feel equally helpless and like there was no recourse..including the realtor the home inspector and a few friends, acquaintances and neighbors, etc...all we kept getting was like "too bad"..there is really nothing you can do..or "the same thing happened to us"...TY SOOO much attorney Murdock for letting us know that its not over yet! You rock! Have a great day! If you "remind" me later or I happen to think about it, I will let you know how the case turns out.

I am very impressed by attorney Charles Schmidt. He is definitely the most professional and reliable person I have ever worked with. His success in handling a complicated home insurance case for me was nothing short of a miracle. The insurance compensation that he was able to negotiate for me was almost five times the upper limit that the insurance company originally insisted on. Non of the other attorneys I worked with come anywhere close to the level of knowledge and experience that Charles has.

After being sentenced to life in prison Ms. Jacobs represented me in my writ of habeas corpus, which is the hardest appeal to win. Ms. Jacobs was successful in winning me relief and I'm now out of prison and free. My family and I are incredibly grateful to Ms. Jacobs and her team.

We have a close friend who was defended by Michelle Jacobs. She did such a great job for this! She worked so hard on this case and gathered as much information as she could. She was always responsive, even for little things. She tried extra miles for her clients and always put client's interest as top priorty.

I interviewed multiple attorneys when contemplating Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Michael was by far the best for several reasons. First, he was kind, compassionate, understanding. Second, he was extremely knowledgeable and generous with his time. Our conversation was a true consultation, not just a sales job. Third, He clearly had my best interest in mind. In fact, what he suggested I do ended up saving me a lot of money over what other attorneys recommended. Fourth, he showed the highest level of integrity. No question that Michael is the guy I would recommend to anyone looking for a phenomenal bankruptcy attorney!

Attorney Maloney (or Mike as he told us to call him) really took the time to understand how difficult this process was for us and make us feel comfortable with our decision. By explaining all the options in a way that we could really understand he allowed us to make the best decision for our family.

After 2 previous attorneys, attorney Ganzer, my last hope, is the only attorney I'd recommend or retain again in the future. Attorney Mike Ganzer is brilliant. Through a long, emotional and confusing case, Mike kept me well informed, explained everything, responded to my questions and concerns rapidly. He was down to earth, easy going, approachable and very honest with me out of court. He listened to my opinions and gave me options with possible outcomes based of each option and advised me based on those. In court, he runs the show with respect but also authority. He is aggressive but at the same time appropriate. His knowledge, professionalism and demeanor in court (and out) gave me absolute confidence in his ability to fight my fight. When thing got difficult or scary, he had the solutions they worked every time. The only attorney I know who I felt actually fought for what I felt was "right",. Thanks to Attorney Ganzer what I felt was "right" became the outcome of my case. I am forever grateful.

What a Litigation Lawyer Can Do for You
A litigation lawyer specializes in representing individuals, businesses, or organizations involved in legal disputes. Whether you're the one filing a lawsuit or you're being sued, a litigation attorney will advocate on your behalf throughout the entire legal process. Their goal is to resolve disputes, either through negotiation, settlement, or trial. Litigation lawyers can help with a wide range of disputes, including contract disagreements, real estate issues, employment disputes, personal injury claims, and more.
Litigation lawyers provide strategic legal advice and manage all aspects of your case, from filing motions to representing you in court, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you have the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome.
When Should I Hire a Litigation Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a litigation lawyer if you're involved in a legal dispute that you cannot resolve on your own. Common situations include:
- Breach of contract disputes: If a party to a contract fails to fulfill their obligations, a litigation lawyer can help you seek damages or enforce the agreement.
- Business disputes: Litigation lawyers can represent you in cases of partnership disagreements, intellectual property disputes, or business fraud.
- Employment disputes: If you're facing issues like wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, or wage disputes, a litigation lawyer can help resolve these matters through negotiation or court action.
- Personal injury claims: If you've been injured due to someone else's negligence and are seeking compensation, a litigation attorney can help you pursue your case.
- Real estate or property disputes: When there are conflicts over property ownership, boundary issues, or lease agreements, a litigation lawyer can assist in resolving the dispute.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is beneficial, especially if a lawsuit seems imminent or you have already been served with legal documents.
What Does a Litigation Lawyer Do?
A litigation lawyer handles all aspects of your case, from the initial investigation to the trial and even the appeals process, if necessary. Their role includes:
- Case assessment and investigation: Analyzing the facts of your case and advising whether it’s worth pursuing or defending.
- Pleadings and motions: Drafting and filing documents to initiate or respond to a lawsuit, including complaints, motions to dismiss, and answers.
- Discovery: Gathering evidence, including depositions, interrogatories, and document requests, to build your case.
- Negotiations and settlement discussions: Attempting to resolve disputes through mediation, arbitration, or settlement talks before going to trial.
- Trial representation: Presenting your case in court, examining witnesses, introducing evidence, and making legal arguments before a judge or jury.
- Appeals: If necessary, filing appeals to challenge or defend the outcome of the trial.
Litigation lawyers are also skilled negotiators and often work to resolve disputes outside of court to save time, money, and stress for their clients.
How Are Litigation Lawyers Paid?
Litigation lawyers typically use a variety of fee structures depending on the type of case, the complexity of the legal matter, and the financial circumstances of the client. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Many litigation attorneys charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and geographic location.
- Flat fees: For specific, predictable legal tasks (such as filing a motion), lawyers may offer a flat fee.
- Contingency fees: In personal injury or other cases where you seek damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency basis, taking a percentage of the settlement or award if you win.
- Retainer: Some clients pay a retainer fee upfront to secure ongoing legal services. The lawyer then bills against this retainer as work is done.
The exact structure should be discussed in the initial consultation to ensure you understand how and when you'll be charged.
How Much Does a Litigation Lawyer Cost?
The cost of a litigation lawyer varies significantly depending on the nature of the dispute and the lawyer’s experience. Factors affecting the cost include:
- The complexity of the case: More complex litigation involving extensive discovery, expert witnesses, or multi-party suits typically costs more.
- Time spent: Litigation cases can be time-consuming, especially if they go to trial. The longer the case, the higher the legal fees.
- Type of fee arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $200 to over $1,000 per hour, depending on the lawyer’s reputation and location. Contingency fees generally range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award.
- Stage of litigation: Cases that settle early in the process are often less expensive than those that proceed to trial or appeal.
It’s crucial to ask about cost estimates during your initial consultation to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Litigation Lawyer
Before hiring a litigation lawyer, it's essential to ask key questions to ensure you're choosing the right representation:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Ensure that the lawyer has experience handling your specific type of dispute, whether it's a contract issue, personal injury, or business matter. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case's strengths, weaknesses, and the likelihood of success. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify how you'll be charged, whether by the hour, a flat fee, or on a contingency basis. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it's hard to predict, an experienced lawyer can give you a rough estimate based on similar cases. -
How often do you settle cases versus going to trial?
Some lawyers are more inclined to settle, while others may be more experienced in the courtroom. It’s important to understand their strategy. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Some lawyers prefer aggressive litigation, while others focus on settlement or mediation. Choose one whose approach aligns with your goals.
How to Check the Credibility of a Litigation Lawyer
To verify a litigation lawyer’s credibility, consider the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Ensure the lawyer is in good standing with the state bar and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online reviews can provide insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and track record.
- Look for litigation experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they have handled cases like yours and have a record of success.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer to provide references from past clients who can speak to their effectiveness and approach.
- Research their trial experience: If your case is likely to go to trial, ensure the lawyer has a history of courtroom success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make your first consultation with a litigation lawyer productive, you should prepare the following:
- A clear outline of the dispute: Provide a timeline and key details about the legal issue you're facing.
- Any relevant documents: Bring contracts, emails, letters, or any other documentation that pertains to the case.
- A list of key players: Provide the names of individuals or companies involved in the dispute.
- Questions about fees and the litigation process: Make sure you understand how the lawyer plans to approach your case and how you will be charged.
- Your goals and expectations: Be clear about what outcome you're hoping for, whether it's a settlement, compensation, or another resolution.
By coming prepared, you can ensure that your initial meeting with the lawyer is both efficient and insightful, giving you a better sense of how to proceed with your case.
