Earlean Laster opened the doors of Laster & Associates over 25 years ago. Since then, Ms. Laster has been providing aggressive representation in matters of family law and criminal defense.
While attending law school at the University of Wisconsin, Madison Law School, Ms. Laster interned at the City Attorney’s Office in Milwaukee, where she was responsible for drafting pleadings, affidavits, and briefs for the Circuit Court and Court of Appeals.
In August of 1997, Ms. Laster became a licensed attorney in the state of Wisconsin and quickly realized her skill and passion for helping clients achieve justice in the criminal and family courts. In September 2000, after gaining several years of invaluable experience at two local Milwaukee law firms, Ms. Laster formed Laster & Associates.
In addition to practicing law, Ms. Laster remains very active in the legal community. Most notably, she was the first African-American woman appointed as a City of Milwaukee Court Commissioner, where she presided over numerous cases involving traffic violations, in-custody defendants, warrants, and municipal ordinance violations.
Ms. Laster invites clients to contact her and the talented staff of attorneys at Laster & Associates to learn more about the professional services they provide to clients.

Consistent, Thorough, Professional
I have worked with Attorney Laster for over 10 years on a child custody case. She has shown herself to be a counselor who sticks to her words. She works hard all the time and has always been at her best for in and out court appearances. H

Outstanding Family Attorney! Results Driven; Sees The Bigger Picture!
Attorney Earlean Laster has been an absolute Godsend in my most difficult periods of parenthood. I have two daughters with two different ladies (absolutely my own fault, should have been married prior to being a parent). There was a time when I had no parental rights, no visitation, and was paying up...

After going through a tough time in my life and receiving a OWI, my daughter's “father” (whom was never involved in her life & owes 9yrs of back child support) Petitioned the Court for Physical Placement of ...
