Excellent Lawyer

Ann was totally professional and caring when helping me through my divorce. She was honest and knowledgeable in all aspects of my case. Anytime I had a question she was a phone call away and if not available responded promptly. I would recommend her most highly to support and represent you.

Best lawyer in Green Bay

I hired Ann to help me get custody of my son. My ex told me that I would never see him more than on weekends, but I have always been in his life and wanted to stay in his life at least half the time. Ann fought for me to make sure that I can have my son live with me 50% and his mom 50%. She also g...ave me some ideas about how to communicate better with my ex. His mom and I get along better now than we did before I started the case. She's very good at listening and always has good solutions for problems that come up. I would definitely hire Ann again.

A Lawyer You Can Trust

From my first meeting with Ann, I felt at ease with her representation through the process. I didn't want to hire a lawyer but felt I needed to when my ex-husband hired a lawyer. Ann had clear direction and was very good at articulating each step of the process. She was trustworthy and honest about w...hat I could expect. When we went to court she was willing to fight for me but was always respectful of the other side my ex-husband and his lawyer. I like how genuine Ann is and she exemplifies professionalism. She's a really good lawyer so she is busy, but she or Bonnie will always return calls and emails. I am happy Ann was recommended to me & I will recommend Ann to others.

Child Custody

Ann did a fantastic job. Professional and hardworking are just a couple of words that describe her. Very pleased with our results and I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Great work again Ann!

A Stellar Attorney

In life, there are few absolutes. Most of what we experience is a culmination of many factors; some in and some out of our control. Although many of the circumstances surrounding our case, and in the end, even the judge's (favorable) ruling was beyond our control, what we could control was our select...ion of Attorney Ann Weiss. As legal counselor in our family's recent child placement/custody hearing, Ann's many personal strengths and professional skills, thankfully lead us to a victory. Throughout the entire, lengthy case, Ann was always frank, honest and insightful. In every court room encounter, she was well prepared, confident and poised. Even when it appeared that a hearing might have been (again) delayed, and the judge demanded that a resolution be reached at that time, Ann was ready to defend, thoroughly prepared with her arguments, multicopied documents and finally, expert cross-examination. She was prepared--even for the unexpected. I believe that it was through Ann's expertise in exposing facts and evidence (that a secure and stable situation currently exists in the life of my granddaughter) that the judge was convinced in her ruling and justice was served.
