Cale Plamann

I now live in New Jersey but was divorced in Wisconsin ten years ago. Over this period of about ten years, my ex-wife filed numerous contempt of court motions. Attempting to refute them in writing proved to be less than optimum. I hired Cale Plamann through the Wisconsin Bar Assoc to assist in a v...ery contentious situation. He proved to be absolutely excellent in his handling and resolution of many issues. Including reversal of fines levied by the Family Court, stopping all further maintenance payments by me to my ex-wife, imposing a limit on any arrearage payments and establishing a clear end to a very painful and contentious situation for me. Cale always explained the legal reasoning behind every proposal, answered my questions in detail ( and persuasively when necessary ) and never failed to deliver on time and completely. I could not be "happier" with his support. I would and will use him if I need further assistance in this same matter.

Me and Cale had a consult together almost a year and a half ago to help me get custody of my four-year-old daughter. He then became my attorney and went to fight for me immediately. Cale really knows the law and how to handle himself in a courtroom how to talk to judges and Commissioners. He is also ...a good caring person at heart and was there for me when I needed him. We were able to get an awesome outcome out of the custody case it took forever but that was not his fault the Courts system is very slow but he did an outstanding job. I referred him to my friend who is having some criminal trouble in a criminal case and he became his attorney as well and went to bat for him and was able to get an awesome outcome as well I highly recommend Cale he truly is a great attorney and a great human being.

Cale failed to communicate during the entire process for which he was hired. Cale did not respond to phone calls or emails. I had previously hired Cale for another issue relating to a property purchase agreement and he failed to do anything more than some mediocre research and left everything to the ...last possible minute. I should have learned from my first awful experience with Cale that he wouldn't be capable of handling something of the utmost urgency - something that impacted the safety of my elderly mother. Don't ever rely on Cale for anything more than a research item if even that. If you have an urgent, even slightly important issue find someone that has more experience, has communication skill (or even a cell phone of their own, not someone else's). He notified me with 30 minutes until our initial meeting on the issue relating to my mother that he was going to have to reschedule, as I was on my way out of the country, he didn't respond to anything after that for over two weeks with multiple attempts on my end to get some communication flow from him, even costing me more money to have to repeatedly call his different numbers from overseas. Don't waste a minute of your time or a single one of your dimes to fool around with this "lawyer" if you can call him that. Go find someone that is experienced, and capable. He can't even do the most basic of things. He's constantly coming up with excuse after excuse, is inexperienced, and has an uncanny inability to accomplish any simple task, and is not trustworthy to say the least. I tried to put it nicely to Cale the first time he failed me and let him know he was relieved of his duty, this time I FIRED him to instead utilize a capable resource. Never would I recommend Cale or this one person show he calls a law office.

I hired Cale on as my lawyer in order to settle a dispute with an online auto parts store based in Texas. I had been fighting them for months, and every time I would fight, they would simply charge me more for "parts" and "services." This was certainly illegal, but I had no idea how to go about resol...ving my dispute with a little more oomph. I was straightforward with Cale that I would have very little to offer him in exchange for resolving my issue, and he seemed to fully understand. Within one day, the online parts store's manager personally emailed a formal apology and not only returned my money, but let me keep most of the parts that I purchased for free. If you're a results-based person, Cale is Brilliant.
