Ann S. Rothstein

Not being from the area, I interviewed multiple lawyers trying to find the right lawyer to take on my daughters divorce and child custody case. My first conversation with her set her apart from all others as she talked to me herself for quite sometime to get details this is before she was ever hired.... She gave me great specific and honest facts about Wisconsin laws, what we were facing and how we would need to approach the case. We hired her and she jumped right in, was available anytime. This is something very rare in a lawyer. She is one of a kind. I found her to be great in and out of the courtroom. She guided us to a relatively quick divorce with equal shared custody and placement. This was not an easy case, but she made it happen. Also, as for her as a person, she is just like family. She is so caring and truly has been there for us and with us. We just love her as a lawyer and a friend.

let's just say that my divorce was one of the most difficult Ann can recall in recent years. Throughout the entire process, Ann consistently kept me informed, and gave great legal advice. Through the many hurtles and hoops we have to jump through, and was persistent in making sure that my needs were ...met. She was available for me 24 seven no matter what time and what the case was. I am so blessed that attorney Rothstein was by my side through my trial, and there is no doubt that my positive outcome was because of her. In Wisconsin, there is no doubt that mothers normally come out with a judges decision favorable, but in our case she fought for the right decision. We met multiple times working on briefs and other documents for the court and I appreciated that. She wanted my input and value my input to make sure all the facts were represented properly. She looked out for me and I will forever be grateful. And isn't just a lawyer, she is an extension of my family and cares about all of her family members. From the bottom of my heart and for my children, words can't explain how indebtedI am to you. You are amazing and thank you so much!

I foolishly allowed my ex to have primary physical placement of our children in an attempt to speed up or divorce process. I paid her child support for over 5 years and only got to see my kids every other weekend. With Ann's help, I built a successful case against my ex and won primary physical place...ment 5 years ago. The review before mine complained about having to do work themselves and that you should hire a lawyer that will be "in your corner." Ann tells it like it is without sugar coating; she will not waste your time and money filing motions that will be a dead end. So what if you have to correct a typo? So what if you have to make a phone call on your own? I've got kids to raise and they come first; I'll gladly make a call on my own time rather than paying another lawyer $300.00/hr to do it just to pretend they're "in my corner." Ann has been a blessing to be and my family since Day 1. She meets us at odd hours, calls and emails on the weekend, and genuinely wants to help her clients instead of being out to get every penny she can. She knows the law and abides by it, an asset that my ex's attorneys could benefit from.

If you want someone focused and ready to do anything to help you further your case, I would not suggest Ann. If you want someone who knows the law, is available at all times and flies by the seat of her pants, hire her. Note: She is disorganized. She carries your files in a manila folder in her Lo...uis Vuitton bag. Not good with paperwork, rarely signs docs on time. She has a pretty good memory, though. She will speak up in court and has a good unstanding of the law. Some clients get more of her attention then others. Hope you're not on the short end of the stick. If your a guy, she sees things from a man's point of view and the law. That is a plus if you're a man looking for an attorney.

My divorce and subsequent family support issues were incredibly expensive and never in my favor until I found Ann and had her replace my two previous attorneys. She had the talent and skill to negotiate settlements as to stay out of the liberal courtrooms, and bring common sense and financial order ...back to my life. Ann is refreshingly somewhat uncharacteristic from the usual lawyer type. She is honest, caring, a great listener, and knows the law. She not only gets the job done, but just as importantly, restores peace and stability back into your life. Ann truly is a blessing.
