Phillip Trampe is on the rise

When I was hit with divorce papers from my now ex wife there were circumstances surrounding it that had me fearing the worst. I was concerned about losing my job, my kids, my home, and everything I cared about. It was without a doubt the worst time of my life. I was scared of everything at that point.... I started to research different local lawyers and ended up setting an appointment with Phillip Trampe. It ended up being a very wise decision on my part. Phillip put me at ease right away and what I liked was the fact that he was completely upfront and honest with me as opposed to telling me what I wanted to hear. Getting a divorce is extremely difficult on so many different levels. Phillip didn't wave a magic wand and make it go away, but he and his team guided me along the way. They set the proper expectation at every turn and there ended up being zero surprises. One thing that set Phillip apart right away was his hunger. He's a younger lawyer relatively speaking, but by no means is that a negative. I asked him point blank if he could handle a savvy veteran lawyer and his confidence in himself gave me confidence in myself. He never backed down and told me outright that he takes wins/losses personal. He knew the impact the divorce would have on my life and he was going to fight for me. I believed in him immediately. I've told several people who my divorce lawyer was and would recommend him everytime. I got everything I asked for when the divorce was final. Phillip Trampe is a lawyer that is on the rise and can be trusted with your time and money.

Excellent Attorney! Very Professional and knowledgeable!

Attorney Trampe represented me regarding a contempt case based on my divorce decree. I found Attorney Trampe by reading other reviews and they were all great! I lived in Maryland and it was very important for me to find an attorney that I could trust and be able to work with me while I lived out of s...tate. I first contacted Attorney Trampe and that same day he listened to my issues and read a few documents and was able to represent me. I have nothing but great things to say about Attorney Trampe and his staff. The entire office was very friendly and was very through with responding back to me with any questions. I trusted Attorney Trampes recommendations and he was very efficient and knowledgeable regarding my case. I really appreciate him working with me and ensuring that I had a successful outcome regarding my case. If I need another family lawyer, Attorney Trampe would be the first person I call! Thank you again for everything!

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.

Brillant lawyer!!! Kept custody of my daughter 50/50, showed care and helpfulness. Very good assistant Sharon.

Advised my very well in custody and financial issues. Represented me brilliantly during my first divorce hearing for temporary orders. Fought hard and won with custody, vehicles, child support and bank accounts. Stopped my ex's false accusations from swaying the court commissioner. I feel very c...onfident to have Phil as my lawyer for the rest of my divorce.

Absolutely the best

When going through the unpleasant times of a divorce a person is forced to take a gamble on putting their future in someone else's hands. Especially when there are children involved. There are huge issues at hand and often large monetary items that must be protected or divided fairly. Even more im...portantly, if there are children are involved you need an attorney who will get you the most time with your kids as possible. A mistake by choosing the wrong attorney can mean losing thousands of dollars and priceless time with your children. All of these things crossed my mind before I hired Philip Trampe. These are HUGE and important things in my life! Let me assure you that Attorney Trampe far surpassed even my large expectations. He was able to get me EVERYTHING I asked for. His tenacity and thorough knowledge of family law were immediately evident the first time I met him. I cannot say enough great things about Attorney Trampe. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to get things done as fast and efficiently as possible. Not to mention that he truly is a nice guy. You absolutely will not regret speaking to this man. Period.
