Incredibly Helpful Lawyer

Stephen did a fantastic job for me with my divorce and has given me great legal advice. He was very helpful, understanding, and directed me on the best way to resolve our issues in a amicable manner. I have referred him and have heard great things from those people. I would highly recommend Stephen....

Divorce

I felt very comfortable with Stephen Bielke and my case was handled with a high degree of professionalism. He was informative , organized, and very timley with all the events that happened in my divorce case. I would highly recommend Mr. Bielke and would certainly use him again if I needed another... attorney.

No-nonsense attorney who knows the law well

Attorney Beilke is very knowledgeable on Wisconsin family law, and so when I asked him questions, he had ready answers, which saves time. He was aware that I had a tight budget and so he let me know what I could do on my own vs. paying him to do, to help keep my costs down. He was also unflappable wh...en the opposing party became contentious.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
