Above and beyond!

Attorney Philip Trampe represented me in an adversarial child custody case. This case was the most trying time in my life, and you need to find the right person to invest in mentally. Mr Trampe left no grey area anywhere, he was the man for the job. He is well seasoned, very knowledgeable, and compas...sionate about his practice in family law. He or his kind paralegal assistant were always available on the phone/ email and responded to my concerns promptly. Above all he is a great family man who genuinely cares for his clients. I chose to give him 5 stars due to his attention to detail, his knowledge in family law, and strong presence in the court room. Attorney Trampe actually succeeded in picking up my case flawlessly and corrected the substandard work of another attorney I hired before him. Attorney Philip Trampe is a "super lawyer" by all means of the definition- you can feel confident putting your trust in his hands, he will stop at nothing short of what he has the power to position. I would recommend him to anyone - as my children are smiling close by my side, and this is due to his dedication and determination. I will be thankful everyday that Mr Trampe took our case, it was a hard one to position!

Divorce Attorney

Philip and his paralegal Michelle were great to work with. While a divorce is about the very last thing one wants to experience, going through it with Phillip and Michelle made it infinitely more tolerable. Philip looked out for my better interest. I was clear on timelines and expectations. While... I did not have a lot of questions and needs during the process, I always felt there was an open communication pathway if a need/question did arise. Overall, Philip was non-judgmental, he was kind, professional, intelligent and a pleasure to work with.

Divorce and child placement

I met with Attorney Trampe in November 2013 for a consultation on divorce filing and child placement; what to expect, my concerns, time frame and cost. He was upfront with me on what to expect, what the courts would be concerned with and look for in child placement. In March 2014 I filed for divorce... with Attorney Trampe as my attorney. I am 100% satisfied with my decision in hiring him. While the case lasted longer than I wanted, it was not due to anything on his behalf, but my ex. I highly recommend him if anyone is thinking of filing for divorce, even for a consultation. He is also very easy to communicate with and fun to joke around with. Thanks for the “free” pen Phil !

Great experience

Attorney Trampe was able to quickly process the information I provided, assess the case, and properly and effectively apply his thorough understanding of family law to achieve a positive resolution. I couldn't have had a better experience, and I wouldn't go to anyone else to handle any further matter...s. Attorney Trampe has my highest recommendation.

Excellent Racine Lawyer Phil Trampe

I hired Phil Trampe to handle my divorce on a recommendation by one of my colleagues that also went through a divorce. I found Phil to be very personable, intelligent and aggressive. Phil is also very honest and forthright in his explanations of his rates and what to expect for costs. There were no s...urprises on my bills. I appreciate the fine job Phil and his excellent support staff did to get me the fair results I wanted. I would recommend Phil Trampe to my family, friends and colleagues.
