Mr. Romero exceeds all expectations and is nothing short of the best!

When it comes to my baby’s safety nothing but the best will do. When looking up “best child custody attorney in Wisconsin” Ernesto Romero pops right up! He exceeded his raving reviews and all expectations I had. He is extremely thorough and diligent with his clients. Mr. Romero used his creative th...inking to get my ex’s case thrown out due to an improper service. He put in the time to gathered all the information he possibly could to build a strong case for me. His intelligence is extremely intimidating to his opponents and he is definitely someone you want advocating for you and your child. In fact he did his job so well that my ex dropped his case altogether. Child custody cases can be extremely stressful and terrifying especially when the other parent is neglectful and harmful to your child’s happiness and well being, but having Ernesto Romero as my attorney has brought me confidence, courage, and he has lifted all the weight off my shoulders. If you’re looking for a tenacious, intelligent, and meticulous attorney to fight for your child’s safety and best interest look no further. His passion for his career is how he gets such great results in court. Hiring Mr. Romero is the best decision I have ever made and to have this peace brought to my baby’s life is worth everything to me. Oh and did I mention he wins. A lot! Nothing I write could scratch the surface of all that this man has done for me and my family.

Extremely helpful during the free consultation!

Ernesto was extremely informative during my free consult and advised me that the best approach right now was to continue doing what I am doing. He gave insight into how best to prepare for the next stage of my case in the meantime and when would be the best time to file another motion in the future t...o guarantee a positive result.

The Best

Attorney Ernesto Romero has represented me numerous times regarding family law and divorce. He is an expert in his field and I would recommend him highly. He is fair, honest and truly a great attorney. You would be wise to use an attorney such as Ernesto Romero for any family law/divorce needs.

A True Professional

I started out my divorce case with a Pro Se. And while she did an excellent job getting things kicked off for me, I felt like I needed legal expertise to finish my case strong. I asked the Pro Se if she could recommend someone, and she, without hesitation, said Attorney Romero, and that he is the a...bsolute only attorney she will recommend. I picked up the phone and contacted him, and he literally got started on my case immediately. I should note, that this was at the last minute...literally. He took his time on the phone with me to explain every question I had. I knew right then, that I was going to hire him if he would take my case. He without hesitation said "let's get started." He worked through the entire weekend getting things up to speed, and kept me informed every step of the way. He is brilliant in his approach, and his communication skills are excellent. I understood everything he told me because he took the time to be sure I understood. I will only recommend him to anyone I know that needs an attorney. My experience with him gave me a sense of confidence in court knowing I had him representing me. After all was said and done, I got the result that I was looking for. If you are considering hiring an attorney for family law, I would strongly suggest you just hire Attorney Romero and be done with it. Sit back, and let him do what he does best. Thank you very much Attorney Romero!
