Steffanie Ann Walczak

I had retained attorney Walczak's services for a divorce proceeding. Divorce's in general, on a personal side, can be extremely difficult as personal issues tend to create confusion and uncertainty. I cannot stress strongly enough how impressed I was with how professional, yet completely thoughtful and responsive attorney Walczak (Steffanie) was during my entire process. She was always quick to respond to any email or phone call I left for her. She listened carefully to my concerns and provided excellent legal advice on each and every matter I brought up. I would highly recommend her. When you are a client of hers, you feel you are more than just a number. She truly provides you with individual attention and takes the time to make sure you feel all your questions or concerns are covered. This is more than I can say for other attorney relationships I have experienced and/or heard about from others.

I have worked with Attorney Walczak for the past 3 years. My daughter's custody case is complex; she was diagnosed with ASD in the middle of it all. Attorney Walczak has always made me feel that she cares about my daughter & does whatever she can to relay what is important to the judges we have been in front of as well as GAL. She has always helped me prepare for court dates well. She is not one to over promise/under achieve. I feel that in my daughters 'final custody hearing' 2 years ago & the emergency hearing she got us about a month ago, my family & I have walked out of the courtroom very happy with the results & have felt incredibly thankful to Attorney Walczak for helping us get a better outcome than we thought possible. I had worked with a different attorney for about the first year of this custody case, & working with Attorney Schaff is night & day experience & I am so happy I found her. She is very good about returning emails & phone calls, & if she personally can't respond very soon, her paralegal (who is also wonderful!) will usually call or email with an update/answer from Attorney Walczak. I have never felt ignored by her or anyone I have encountered at her office in any way. Unlike with my first attorney, I have also never felt that Attorney Walczak or any of the staff I have experienced at Petit & Dommerhausen SC have taken advantage of me, lied to me, or let me/my daughter down. I recommend Attorney Walczak to anyone who is looking for legal representation in a child custody case. Her rates are also quite reasonable in my opinion, & she helps save clients money by having her paralegal do certain things jnstsD of personally doing every single thing if it is something that the paralegal is qualified to do. Attorney Walczak has definitely gone above and beyond for me (& most importantly my daughter), & I can't thank her enough for that.
