Michelle F. Achterberg

Michelle was very thorough and knowledgeable through everything involved. She was hired in addition to union representation; but far surpassed what the union provided. Very responsive to requests and inquiries, every step of the way. Always advising what was best for the case, even when it was not th...e "path of least resistance" for her; not willing to "scratch the back" of opposing counsel, as is often what happens. Definitely the attorney you want with you, on your side of the bench.

Working with Michelle on my divorce was a fantastic experience. She is knowledgeable, efficient, always prepared, transparent and, most importantly, she genuinely cares about your case. I would highly recommend Michelle for any legal matter, especially divorce. She takes the fear out of the process a...nd provides sound guidance every step of the way. As crappy as divorce is, Michelle's down-to-earth personality and incredible sense of humor keeps you as calm and relaxed as possible during a high-stress time. Thank you Michelle-if all lawyers were like you the legal world would be much less intimidating!

I contacted Michelle’s firm concerning a Family Law matter. From the initial consultation conversation I knew that Michelle was perfect for the matter and perfect for my comfort level. She was knowledgeable and very personable. The connection was immediate. After agreeing to take me as a client... Michelle worked diligently in my best interest. Until the case was resolved, in my favor, she stayed in contact with me and kept me up-to-date on all aspects of the case, and my options. After some time; talking with her was more like confiding in a friend rather than an Attorney. During the evolution of my case, from beginning to end, she performed scholarly reviews of settled Wisconsin State case law; and settled case law in other relevant states to successfully resolve my issues. I would highly recommend her for all your relevant legal needs; you will not be disappointed in her abilities, dedication to her clients, compassion, or the results she brings to the table.
