Great real estate attorney

Very professional quality service. We had a pretty complicated transaction that required multiple document reviews and multiple version of the final title documents and Rudolph did it all for the initial flat fee. Highly recommended!

A lawyer you can trust!

My experience with Mr. Kuss is nothing but wonderful. He is truly a lawyer that works hard for you but also has a big heart. He worked very closely with us. He handled a cae for my daughter and her future husband on a case regarding buying there first home. The seller had sold them a home with a ho...rrible roof, and he lied about it. This was there 1st home I felt terrible for them. After looking into lawyers I found Mr. Kuss... it was a blessing. I can highly recommend him to anyone who has been taken in by a bad situation. He is honest, kind, and very easy to work with. Thank you again Mr. Kuss, Katie and Shane have gotten there roof fixed and they are almost done with all the damage inside that it also caused. With out your help and knowlage of the law they would have been sunk! Great lawyer!!!

Property litigation

My wife and I were very pleased with the services of Attorney Rudy Kuss. After uncovering multiple issues with our recently purchased home (that were not disclosed to us prior to signing our offer to purchase), a trusted friend had recommended we bring our claim to the law office of Stevens & Kuss f...or review. As we went through the process and engaged multiple experts / witnesses for our case, each person reiterated the fact we were working with one of "the best" property attorney firms in the Greater Milwaukee area. Attorney Kuss was very professional, very detailed, worked diligently throughout the process, and always maintained an open dialogue with us. Prior to engaging Attorney Kuss' services, we searched Avvo, spoke with other local attorneys, and other property experts regarding the law office of Stevens & Kuss, particularly Attorney Rudy Kuss. His successful track record as an experienced litigator and the recommendations of our trusted advisors cemented our decision. It was a pleasure working with Attorney Rudy Kuss, and we highly recommend his services

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
