Prompt, Responsive, and Honest
I have been in an ongoing battle with a corporate property management company for which I had to break the lease due to "untenantability" reasons and Evan guided me to the statutes and has been aiding in helping me understand my options under the law. He has responded to my questions promptly and carried on with me throughout the day as I have a very busy schedule, which I find most helpful. When I need him, he is there and he is honest and candid about the realities of the options available to me, which I value in a lawyer. I like to know what is likely to take place so I can plan accordingly. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer who specializes in tenant law.

Negligent Landlord
I was in an ingoing situation with a negligent landlord who was holding my security deposit months after my lease was up, the landlord was in the wrong. Evan helped me through the entire process, he was informative, honest, and very fast acting. Overall I couldn’t be happier, and I am glad I know I can come back to him in the future if ever needed.

Highly recommended for real estate transactions
Evan did a great job representing our best interests during a private real estate transaction. Be reviewed contracts, line item edited and provided clarifications, and he responded to all our questions right away. I highly recommend working with him.

Evan is an outstanding attorney who drew up a commercial lease for me. He was knowledgeable and gave very good advice and guidance. He responds in a timely manner and is very transparent and honest. I feel so lucky to have found him and I intend to use his services in future legal transactions! He is smart, kind, and very approachable!

Excellent lawyer, stand up guy
My wife and I were embroiled in a stressful situation regarding a new construction where the foundation was out of plumb and cracking under the strain. To make matters worse, the sellers refused to let us out of the contract, which was worth more than a million. Evan Knupp extracted us from that situation with a level of skill that can only be described as “surgical precision”. We will always be exceedingly grateful for what Evan did for us, and will never forget it. Even is recommended, by me, with the highest of regard, without reservations.

Thank you!
Even though he wasn’t representing me, the time he took on this app to give me sound advice was appreciated. For those shipping attorneys, this one deserves a hard look!!!

Definitely recommend to anyone purchasing a home.
Attorney Evan Knupp helped me and my husband in our first home purchase from the offer-to-purchase agreement to closing. We were purchasing the property we were renting. It was confusing in the beginning but Attorney Knupp helped guide us through every step of the process and represented us well. He was professional and answered any questions we had. He picked up on potential problems that we wouldn't have noticed regarding our paperwork. He was thorough and extremely pleasant to work with. I'd recommend Attorney Knupp to anyone going through the home buying process.

Got a 26 MPH Speeding Ticket in Racine (I-95) Recently and Evan Knupp Handled It
In June 2020, I was speeding as I was running late from Milwaukee to catch my flight out of O'Hare. 26 MPH speeding ticket as I hit the State Patrol speed trap operating out of Racine County stretch of I-95. I looked up reviews for good lawyers that also handle traffic and came across Evan Knupp. He was amazing. Got it reduced from a 26 over $300 fine to an Odometer infraction and a $250 fine. Keep up the great work Evan! I would use him for any legal work I would need. You would think with all that is going on the police/troopers should be focused on other things.

Got my security deposit back
Mr. Evan Knupp has been instrumental in resolving a security deposit issue we've had with our landlord. He was there to assist us at every step from the mediation to the settlement. My case was settled even before it went to trial. An amazing negotiator and a very reliable person indeed. We couldn't have been represented any better. I'm glad he took time to assist us when no lawyer was willing to take up a small claims case like ours (a tenant).

6 point moving violation
Evan was very professional when speaking with him, he gave his best and worst scenario for my case. So i hired Evan to represent me, i couldn't have pick a better lawyer. He was able to get my citation reduced to a parking ticket. The fine went up but my insurance didn't. Excellent job Evan

Small Claims Case
The neighbor of my income property did some remodeling that involved using heavy machinery and damaged my property in the process while I was not present. When I confronted them about it they denied it and refused to reimburse me for the expense to fix it. So I made an appt. with Evan and shared my case with him and he thought it was a case we would win, so I went forward with it. Evan researched all parties involved, performed all the proper serving work, submitted the case paperwork, went to court for me multiple times, and we did win the case when they defendants did not show up. Afterwards, Evan docketed the case and performed the follow-up tasks such as calculating the interest amount on the delayed payment and communication with the defendant's attorney. I was eventually paid by the defendants.

Commercial lease
Mr Knupp was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in dealing with a lease issue I had at my commercial property. What I appreciated most was his ability to stay focused, allowing me to address every issue in a short amount of time.

Great attorney got us settlement of $11,475
We found Attorney Knupp after our landlord wrongfully withheld our security deposit. I needed someone I could trust, with the legal expertise needed to win. His knowledge in landlord and tenant law is expansive. Our case went past the commissioner, then to court with a judge and then an appeal. We won at every level. Throughout the entire process Attorney Knupp kept us informed and explained the legal process very well. In the end, we won $11,475. There is no way I could have gotten this settlement without his hard work and dedication to our case. I can’t recommend his services enough. Do yourself a favor and hire Attorney Knupp you wont regret it.

Delivers and knows the system
I am out of state and received a ticket for 6 points. Ed was able to negotiate it down to zero points and a non-moving violation. Many thanks as good attorneys who are very responsive are hard to find these days.

#1 go-to for legal help
I have worked with Roney and Knupp (mainly Evan) for quite sometime now. They have assisted me on a number of business and personal items. Their knowledge on landlord and tenant laws is extensive to say the least. Evan has always been extremely easy to communicate with, and have always been quick to answer any of my questions or concerns on any cases he is assisting me with. Their pricing is affordable and they make every aspect; from start to finish; easy and as stress free as possible for me. Evan is a very straight forward, "no bull" type of guy and I know that they are working for me in a fair and honest manner, and always keep my best interests at the forefront. They are my #1 go-to for legal help with my line of business, as well as, and legal help within my personal life. I will always recommend both him and his partner Patrick Rooney for any legal help that they can assist with.

Professional, Fast and Effective! Fixed 2 speeding tickets, Highly recommend
Evan helped us get two speeding tickets reduced to non-moving violations that my husband incurred while driving in Fon Du Lac and Milwaukee. He was very quick to get started and resolve the matter, his fee for the transactions was very fair and reasonable compared to a few other lawyers and law firms I had gotten quotes from before making my final decision. We are very pleased we decided to move forward with Evan and would highly recommend Evan for any driving tickets.
