I have been “fighting” a felony case which is my very first ever, since July 2024 waiting for a plea deal I keep calling and getting zero response as to if I have gotten a offer the lawyer at this point I feel like he is playing me and my life (which I take very seriously) I continuously ask if there has been an offer and all I get is “no” or “they should reach out soon” I’m very worried that I may have chosen the wrong person for this case just to get a simple plea deal and it’s coming up in just one more month I know there is a possibility of me not going away for something so stupid that I did but with the way these people work I just don’t think I’m going to get anything close to good out of this and I’ll have to leave my family alone for a while because of these guys not doing there job correctly they never reach out until it’s time to pay at this point I could probably be using a public “free” attorney and getting better results I will not be using you guys again I got told you were good and have been shown otherwise!!! I really hope they get things together and I pray that I get a good end result out of this if they would just do there freaking job I could get at the MOST probation. Please research before using these people they have me and my family worried I may not be home for much longer… 💔

Had been in communication w Lane from 11/24/24, then decides on 1/3/25 to quit on me three days before my pretrial.

I thought Lane would be the lawyer for me. He promised me he was taking my case on contingency. After I sent him all of my medical records, he stopped returning my calls and emails. What a waste of time. I could've used that time to search for a different lawyer. Very unprofessional Do not recommend

Straight trash. Someone real close to me hired them and they found out fitzgerald didnt file court documents when they were supposed to and the case was dismissed. But what do you expect from a group of ppl like this in Beloit. Their picture doesn’t even say “I know what I’m doing”. I wish the person close to me had looked them up 1st on google before hiring them.

Round of applause for the this law firm, very unprofessional, and refusing court orders to provide information on a case. Attorney Lane is Very smug, snobby, not helpful, doesn't return calls, his little assistant who answers the phone is just as bad and has hung up the phone, doesnt let anyone else speak, just talks over you. Now have set an appointment two different times to be pushed back less than an hour before the appointment day of, for something that can simply be printed in office (in less than 2 minutes) knowing that this needs to be done timely and having it court ordered to be done. This law firm likes to waste people's time and money. Both of which are equally valuable. I don't give negative reviews often, but when I do, they are deserved and details are provided. The reviews truly show for this law firm and it's sad.

My ex wife had lane Fitzgerald for divorce im glad she did because he absolutely sucks at his job she didnt get nothing she wanted probably because he didnt do his job or research on anything he only cared but one thing in the case which wasnt relevant to the divorce. Hes arrogant and has no business being a lawyer. He wasnt even at her final hearing lol most likely he only out for him self and the money.

No response in months and judge closed my case. Took my money and did not get any result or help from the attorney

Absolutely horrible. I already knew I had a bad lawyer and that's why I had hired a new one. I still owed money to the lawyer from this firm and when I called to get a balance and finally got through to someone after almost a month of trying, the person wasn't even in the office and was extremely short with me. Even after saying thank you for your time all I got in response was, uh huh and then they hung up. If I could give less than one star, I would.

What an amazing experience I had at The Fitzgerald Law Firm! Had a long going custody battle in Rock County WI that seemed never to end so I fired Sterling Law Office that was a big mistake and actually set me back and then hired The Fitzgerald law firm and rapped everything up pretty quick and came out with a BIG WIN! To top that off he heard my child support case today in Boone county IL with very little notice and again came out with a win! Could not be more happy with there service and professionalism! If you want good things to happen call this firm!!

This was the worst experience of my life. My attorney never really showed up. He sent his partner and not one time did he talk to me or ask questions beforehand, even though I called several times. Not only that, he was rude with me. I know for a fact he only wanted the money. Please, please go somewhere else!

Communication is HORRIBLE. Even the judge in Janesville Court had to threaten to fine the lawyer because they wouldn't do there job and arrived at court without papers asked for several times. Judge refused to keep continuing due to lawyer. I has proof I sent the papers day after 1st court date. He also NEVER Filed my paperwork or gave me copies, I had to chase it all down and do it all myself. Years later I still am dealing with them not doing there job! I paid them for doing almost nothing.

Do NOT hire this law firm!! I hired them through Upright Law to do a simple chapter 7 bankruptcy and they have proceeded to lie to me and have not returned my calls for 2 months at this point. Do NOT hire them. I am filing a grievance with the state of WI over this. Learn from my mistakes!
