Just completed my second successful lemon law case with Gadtke Law. They were great as always and met the expectations they set early on with the final outcome. Would highly recommend!

Pros: Professional, best in Minnesota regarding lemon law, fights for the underdog.
Cons: Lengthy litigation process, sometimes had to check in with Law Firm to understand progress regarding my case in the legal process.
In December of 2014, I purchased a used BMW from a dealer in Wisconsin. The buyers guide checked out clean and passed my initial visual inspection. After purchasing my car from this dealership, on the drive home I started experiencing issues with the brakes. The next day the car was in the shop and I incurred a bill of around $1,500. When January 2015 came around, I experienced a myriad of car troubles and had to deal with numerous repairs and conversations with the dealership. My finances took a major hit as I incurred around $3,500 in automotive repair costs within the first month of 2015. As a recent college graduate making his first vehicle purchase, spending $3,500 on vehicle repairs in addition to the downpayment for the car that supposedly passed inspection with no issues was unacceptable to me. I decided to take action and reach out to Gadtke Law Firm hoping they would fight to recover my losses.
On January 28, 2015 I reached out to Gadkte Law Firm and received a response immediately. I was surprised to see how quickly they responded to my initial inquiry. I put a packet together that would form the basis of my case at the request of Gadtke Law Firm. I e-mailed copies of the vehicle purchase contract, buyer's guide, and vehicle repair records for review. Within 1-week, Gadtke Law Firm responded and said they would be able to help me. Throughout my year long process I worked closely with Todd Gadtke and Dawna Stewart. Todd was very flexible with my busy schedule and for months we worked comfortably together via phone conferencing and e-mail. Dawna was more than helpful in answering any questions or leaving messages from me for Todd when he could not be reached or busy with other cases. On October 27, 2015 I submitted my discovery responses (interrogatories). I was asked to list all people who had knowledge regarding my case and explain my situation in length via word document (in writing). It was my first time submitting a lengthy legal document to a law firm, but Dawna was more than helpful. Any time I had a question or needed clarity, she would break every section down and made the process very easy to understand. On February 11, 2016 I had a mediation meeting that brought the dealership and I to Bassford Remele Litigation Firm to potentially settle the case. The mediation meeting was unsuccessful as we could not reach a settlement I was happy with. A few weeks later in the month of March, Todd followed through with a high level of professionalism and dedication to his craft. He was able to get me an amount I was happy with and worked diligently to close the case.
Overall, my experience with Gadtke Law Firm was positive. I was up and running with the legal process once I was able to submit all of my vehicle purchase and repair documentation. Although the process was lengthy, Gadtke Law Firm is like working with a well-oiled machine. For first-timers getting introduced to the litigation process, Gadtke Law Firm makes your individual process an empowering experience. You feel strengthened due to having experience fighting on your behalf. If you're looking for a law firm to advocate for your rights and potentially recover your losses, I strongly recommend Gadtke Law Firm. I can say that they performed at a very high level of excellence over the past year. The time it took to check in from month-to-month could have been faster, but we're all busy. We have work, families, and ourselves to take care of. Todd and Dawna were transparent with gaps in communication. I was understanding because they always returned my call or e-mail. I'm very glad with my experience. I consider Gadtke Law firm family as they treated me as such. If anyone has any questions about working with Gadtke Law Firm, leave a comment to my review or e-mail me and I'll be sure to get back to you.

Todd is not just the best trial lemon law attorney but he also believes in consumer protection and defending the customer's interests. I was dealing with some persistent problems with my car and frustrated experience with a manufacturer. After numerous visits to the dealership for over a 2-year period, I called the law office of Todd Gadtke. Todd was upfront with me telling that I may not meet the lemon law threshold, but he was willing to help and took my case. The outcome exceeded my most optimistic expectations. Todd did an absolutely amazing job protecting my interests and showing a great deal of passion, integrity, professionalism. I am very happy with the results, and highly recommend Gadtke Law Firm to my family, friends, and anyone who is looking for an ethical, aggressive representation and successful outcome.

I had a 2013 Chevrolet Cruze that had a coolant issue and the vapors were coming into the interior of the vehicle, I had it in and out of the dealer for this reason numerous times and they couldn't fix the problem, after having the car for a little over two years and continuing to breath these toxic vapors I contacted the Law Firm of Gadtke, they handle it very professionally and with fast results.
I highly recommend the Law Firm of Gadtke in any Lemon Law case, they are truly professionals and they know your Lemon Law rights. They will get you the results that you deserve and what you are entitled to!!

Todd and Dawna represented me successfully against Chrysler after I purchased a new Ram 3500 Longhorn with significant electrical issues. They were diligent, thorough and quickly reached a settlement with Chrysler to repurchase the vehicle at full MSRP. I highly recommend them and will certainly use them again if the need arises.

We must be magnets for motorcycle and vehicle breach of warranty. Gadtke Law Firm has been awesome. We had settlements in 2000, 2013, and just recently. Specifically Dan Brennan was clear, concise and honest. Thank you for keeping our MV companies in line! We, as consumers are sitting ducks without recourse if it wasn't for you! Thanks again!

I would strongly recommend the Gadtke Law Firm for your lemon law claim. As an attorney myself, I was truly impressed with their handling of my claim as well as the persistent follow up when the bank kept losing the check! The claim could not have gone better.

BEYOND IMAGINATION AND EXPECTATION!
Hi Todd, Dawna, and Team! I greatly appreciate all of the hard work from the team at Gadtke Law Firm. I am not typically an individual who takes the time to write reviews; however, the efforts of your team made it an incredibly easy decision to do so!
We have a fairly new vehicle that has had many issues. You all did an incredible job representing us to the greatest extent possible, and also holding the manufacturer responsible for known issues! From our first conversation to the end result, your team was able to accomplish much more than we had expected or imagined! We would and do happily recommend your services to anyone faced with a similar situation!
Thanks again!
Mitchell and Sara Donat
