An EXCEPTIONAL Family Attorney

For the past 12-months, Ms. Haley Wright, Attorney-at-Law, has represented my Son in a very challenging custody case. As a result of Ms. Wright's diligence and thoroughness, my Son now has custody of my Grandson. To say the Ms. Wright's efforts have changed the life of little boy is an understateme...nt. Without Ms. Wright's guidance and sage counsel we would not have been able to navigate the complexities of this issue successfully. Ms. Wright is a superb attorney and I am thankful for her service(s) in this matter.

Haley B. Wright- Outstanding!

I consulted Haley Wright regarding a divorce maintenance issue. My ex wanted to stop paying my ‘indefinite maintenance’ that was declared in our divorce decree. We were married 27 years and he wanted it discontinued after 5 years so he could retire with his new wife. After trying to reason with my ex... without including attorneys, I then hired Haley Wright to represent me with my case. She assisted me with the Wisconsin laws and my legal rights. I never imagined, having the type of experience I had with Haley Wright serving me, compared to my last experience with a different attorney . Thank you Haley Wright! She did a fantastic job- her knowledge and expertise of laws and procedures and her interpersonal skills and care for her client while maintaining boundaries and professionalism is outstanding! I am thankful that our paths crossed and that Haley Wright could be the one to help me! I have and will continue to recommend her!

Great Attorney!

When facing a divorce I was looking for an attorney that would have my best interests in mind. I met with Haley and right of the bat I knew that she was determined to do her best job. My divorce was a key grueling affair, she kept up the pressure on the other firm. When it came to the final court da...te she had taken her own weekend to prepare for the trial. She was very prepared and on point. The outcome was better than I had expected. She helped me through a difficult time and I thank her for that. If I'm ever in need of representation I would not hesitate to use her again.

"Attorney Wright is a very knowledgeable and dedicated attorney. She puts forth significant effort into her cases; wanting to do the best for each client she has. In divorce work, she is sensitive to the parties' circumstances and is not an obstructionist but rather works toward mutually acceptable agreements. I truly enjoy having cases with Attorney Wright as I know that I can count on her to be honest with the facts so that our clients can walk away knowing that they have a fair settlement. A great attorney to work with!"
