DIVORCE IS NEVER EASY
DIVORCE MEDIATOR, STRATEGIST AND COACH MAKE A PLAN, LOWER YOUR CONFLICT, GET A BETTER OUTCOME
WHEN YOU’RE NO LONGER A PERFECT FIT
After representing hundreds of clients, we know that people going through divorce face a wide range of challenges – emotional, financial, legal and logistical. Here’s what we provide:
Emotional support to help clients feel more confidence in their decisions, and more grit to manage their exes.
Emotional
Our clients tell us they hate not knowing what to expect or how things will turn out, and this uncertainty creates anxiety and fear. We know the loss of this important relationship leaves you grieving, and even wondering who you are without your partner. We understand you may feel like you’ve failed, and suffer from guilt or shame. It can be a very lonely and emotional time, and sometimes it’s not just that you lost your partner, but you might be facing the loss of an extended family, a friend group, and your vision for the future. Maybe it’s not fear but anger that fuels you. It can be stressful to co-parent with someone who doesn’t accept responsibility for their own role in the breakdown of the marriage. Perhaps you resent that your partner was absent during the marriage, but suddenly want to parent now. Whatever emotions you are feeling, we can help you manage those so you can make better long-term decisions. We provide clear step-by-step guidance on the divorce process.
Divorce strategy guidance to navigate legal, financial, and logistical challenges which can otherwise feel overwhelming.
Financial
Maybe you are having a hard time seeing how you’ll support yourself post-divorce, or you fear the division of assets and income will threaten your security. High-conflict divorce can drain finances quickly, and going from one household to two is a major adjustment. We’ll connect you with the best experts to help you crunch the numbers and provide you with the most options for the next place you call home. We’ll walk you through your budget, figure out the best way to handle your debts, and move you toward financial independence. While the legal system can feel unfair, we will guide you to a result that is reasonable and livable.
Advice on realistic expectations to avoid common mistakes.
Legal/Logistical
We know the legal system is complicated and intimidating. Maybe you want to know if you can proceed without a lawyer. Maybe you know for sure you want someone to advocate for you. We will keep you informed, untangle complicated processes, and walk you through the forms if you’d rather DYI your own divorce. We offer strategy sessions to help you map out your divorce process options and turn all the legal lingo into plain English.
Roadmaps for rebuilding your life post-divorce.
Social/Family/Kids
How do you figure out where the kids will live? Or with whom? How can you preserve holiday traditions? How do you make sure your kids turn out ok post-divorce? What if your spouse is manipulative, controlling, or high-conflict? How can you manage co-parenting if your ex won’t cooperate? We help you determine your priorities and give you tools to manage all the personalities. If you want a referral to a mental health professional, we can help with that.

ABOUT OUR CLIENTS
We are often asked if we represent more men or more women in family law matters. The answer is, it’s about even. Our clients come from all walks of life, from stay-at-home moms, to dual working parents, parents who travel for work, to couples who own family businesses.
We have represented people earning minimum wage to millionaires. Most of our clients earn between $50,000 and $500,000 per year, but every case is unique. Our divorce lawyers in Milwaukee help families with special needs children, no children, and families with as few as one or as many as nine children (our largest family served!).
We’ve helped same-sex couples, couples who have never married, people who live in state and out of state. The most important quality a client should have if they want to work with our office, is the desire to solve problems in a healthy way that is good for all parties. We specialize in low conflict processes, so if you are determined to fight with your spouse or your ex, or if your ex is determined to fight with you, we might not be a good fit for your case.
After 33 years of helping adversarial couples, we are looking to provide healthier alternatives to conflict. We serve clients who would like to lower their divorce costs by working together toward a healthier outcome for the entire family. There IS a way to move past infidelity, breach of trust, pain, hurt and anger, without escalating the fight in your divorce. We can help you if you are interested. Whether you need a fulltime divorce advocate, or just a few hours of help to finalize your forms or your negotiations.
