Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese. You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand. You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.
The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls. Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails. An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.

Your attorney’s goal should not be to win at all costs. Rather, it should be to achieve a favorable outcome for you as efficiently as possible. It is important that your attorney set realistic expectations at the outset as to the costs you should expect, the concerns that the attorney has about the outcome of your case, and the length of time that you should expect your case to take.
Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.
Kevin's firm handled setting up my will and trust recently. They took something that seemed intimidating and made it easy to understand. I've also referred a couple clients to Kevin - he's trustworthy, approachable and very fairly priced.

Running a business is tough and when commercial disputes arise the stakes are high. Whether it’s a breach of contract, a shareholder dispute, or non-compete issues, these conflicts can disrupt operations, impact profits, and even threaten the very existence of your business. At our firm, our Waukesha business litigation attorneys will protect your business and guide you through the entire commercial litigation process.
Commercial litigation includes all the legal disputes that can arise in business. These disputes can involve contracts, partnerships, shareholders, intellectual property, and more. In many cases, the goal is to resolve the issue through negotiation or mediation and avoid the time and expense of a trial. But when a fair resolution can’t be reached our attorneys will advocate for your business in court.
Take the case of a Waukesha business owner who entered into a contract with a supplier for materials. The supplier failed to deliver on time and the business was severely disrupted. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue amicably the supplier continued to breach the contract and the business owner had no choice but to pursue legal action.
Our business litigation team stepped in, and reviewed the contract and the supplier’s obligations. We filed a breach of contract claim and through strategic negotiation, we were able to get a settlement that compensated the business for its losses and the supplier to perform their contractual obligations going forward. This case shows how having the right legal representation when business disputes arise can mean the difference between a resolution that protects your interests and ongoing disruption to your business.
