Excellent Divorce Lawyer

Attorney Linda Vanden Heuvel did a wonderful job representing me in my divorce. She is extremely knowledgable and she looked out for my best interests throughout the process. Linda was very supportive and always available to answer my questions and keep me up to date on the case as it progressed. ...She knows the law and made sure that I was able to get a very fair settlement. Her book on divorce in Wisconsin is an excellent resource as well.

Five Plus Stars are not Enough!

Linda is the most caring, understanding and generous professional that I have had to deal with throughout this whole ordeal. If I did not understand why something that I suggested could not be done, Linda would explain it to me in analogies that I would understand. Linda and her staff ALWAYS had ...my back and best interests in mind! I always felt safe and secure throughout this major life transition. I could not have successfully made it without Linda and her very knowledgeable staff. It was an honor to have Linda represent me!

If you are looking for an expert divorce Attorney I highly recommend Attorney Linda Vanden Heuvel! Linda’s family first approach fit my needs perfectly as I wanted my children to have the most positive recovery without becoming emotionally upset. As a business woman myself, I found Attorney Vanden He...uvel well organized, a skilled litigator, with a list of achievements a mile long. She is tough as nails in court and I always felt my concerns and best interests were first and foremost. Not only is she a tough Attorney, Linda is an accomplished author having written “Divorce in Wisconsin” an excellent divorce resource book. In addition to writing legal books she has also written several fun filled children’s books. Linda was always calm and composed and was able to make times of extreme crisis bearable. A Five Star Attorney in my book!

Great lawyer

Divorce was the hardest thing to go through but I am so fortunate that I had Linda Vanden Heuvel as my attorney. Linda really supported me and kept me on track when emotions were running high. It was so difficult to focus on financial decisions when my whole life was crumbling and changing but Linda ...was there to help me remember that these financial decisions would impact not only my future but my children's future well being. Linda was also so helpful in navigating placement. It's all so overwhelming. All I wanted was to keep my kids safe and happy. Linda helped me sort out all the options and make a decision and agreement with my ex that would be the best for our kids. She helped me see that fighting about every little detail would never pay off and that we needed to look past the immediate stress and help our kids be happy and healthy. Linda was sometimes a little tough but only when I needed it. She also remembered how much stress the whole divorce put in me and on my kids. Linda was there for me in court. She knows what she is doing. She knows when to stand firm even when it seems easier to give in. I am so glad I had her in my side. She is experienced and really cares what happens to her clients and their kids. I would recommend Linda to anyone with a family law case.

Very expensive, unorganized

Uncontested divorce and one court appearance in eight months resulted in more than $25,000 in attorney and other fees. The last bill was sent 7 months after divorce was finalized and charged as a result of my questioning a missed QDRO. Attorney was openly harsh with her staff and very disorganized. I... felt a lack of trust, but didn't have the cash to pay another retainer for a different attorney.

This review is untruthful. It is very difficult to respond to an anonymous review, but I have an inkling who would write this unfair comment. First of all, I did not charge even a small percentage of this alleged amount. This untruthful person added up the fees of all attorneys, all experts, all costs, all appraisals, etc., and only in that circumstance did the cost even come close to the suggested amount. A financial expert was retained to handle the QDRO before I was even retained on this divorce. I worked very hard for this client and was never paid in full for services rendered. The allegations relative to my staff are a lie. The people that work with me are valued and have worked with me for many, many years. Relative to the final invoice, this invoice was sent at client's request after I had already (at that time) written off the fees. Assuming I am correct in my analysis of this "anonymous" sender's comments, there is little likelihood that this person would be satisfied under any circumstances and under any conditions.
