About J

I’m a financial problem solver who can think through unique and customized solutions for farmers, small business owners, debtors and creditors. As a principal shareholder with Krekeler Strother, S.C., I work with a team of legal professionals that can deliver financial answers. We provide the information you need for Chapters 7, 11, 12, and 13 so you can make the best choice for your future and ease your mind. I enjoy presenting on debtor-creditor matters and try to find ways to make it fun.

Richard Bourne, Real estate Attorney on Aug 30, 2012
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse Atty. Krekeler as exceptional and truly creative in reaching the best possible outcome for clients considering bankruptcy, especially ones who have extremely complex and challenging issues.

James McNeilly

I am very well acquainted with Dave. Over the past 25 years or so, I have been opposing counsel to Dave, a co-presenter at seminars, an attendee at seminars at which Dave has presented, and a co-board member of the Wisconsin State Bar Bankruptcy, Insolvency and Creditors Rights Board. I have have the utmost confidence in his ability and I have paid him the ultimate compliment from a fellow attorney: I have referred many a potential client to Dave.

Daniel Freund, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Jul 16, 2008
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

One of the top bankruptcy lawyers in the state. I am familiar with his work as a lawyer and as a presenter at legal seminars. I have and continue to refer clients to him.
