Alison Krueger is a FANTASTIC lawyer and also a lot of credit goes to her Assistant Maya Rodkiewicz!

They helped me in so many ways during my difficult divorce while working late at night, I would get e-mails from Alison around 10pm -11pm. She works for you until your divorce is done.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH ALISON & MAYA FOR YOUR HARD WORK & DEDICATION TO YOUR CLIENTS!

I was referred by a friend to Rebecca Millenbach for a divorce, and I'm very glad I took this advice!

She is an honest - "tell it like it is", "fight for what's right" kind of person, yet very kind, sensitive, and "down to earth". Easy to work with, and very responsive - I would highly recommend her!!!

Her assistant, Amber Hainz was very great to work with , as well!!

Very outstanding team of Attorneys and staff!!

I was referred to Rebecca by a friend.
I can’t say enough about her and her staff.
She let me lead and make my own decision, all while guiding me through the maze of divorce.
She was EXTREMLY patient, yet firm, with me.
She also welcomed open, frank communication with my financial planner.

Rebecca talked me off the ledge more than once. She assured me I will be alright, wiped my tears, made me laugh, listened to my rants, then got down to business and fought for what was fair and equitable, ( for ME ), in the unfair circumstances of my particular divorce case.
I have recommended her to many of my clients, and will continue to do so.
I am grateful for all she did for me.

Attorney Nelson was an outstanding attorney! She kept in constant contact with me throughout the process, and was very quick to respond to my questions and concerns. Attorney Nelson's assistant Shelley was very helpful as well, and both were very pleasant and empathetic throughout the process. I would recommend Attorney Nelson to anyone that is looking for a good, thorough attorney.

Teri and her team went above and beyond to make sure things went as smoothly as possible and stayed on track. Going through a divorce is an incredibly stressful experience, but Teri handled everything, making sure the legal action went as smoothly as possible for me, and she did an excellent job from start to finish.

I would highly recommend Aislinn Penkwitz at Nelson, Krueger & Millenbach. I trusted her with what I hold most precious in this world, my relationship with my daughter. She did not disappoint. I cannot thank her enough for helping me through one of the toughest moments of my life.

I dont even know where to begin. They have helped me and my family get through the toughest of times. They are very well organized, very attentive to the needs and care about the situation I was in. They go out of their way to help you understand and negotiate tough terms. Very knowledgeable and courteous as well. I have nothing but good things to say about everyone on their team, including my personal lawyer Madeleine Olmstead.

As a result of my spouse filing for divorce, I needed legal representation. I met with, and hired, Teri Nelson, of Nelson, Krueger and Millenbach LLC. Throughout the divorce process, Teri and her legal assistant, Shelley, were always professional, courteous and patient.

I was always kept informed of actions, motions, meetings, etc. If I had a question or a comment, communication always went smoothly. Often we communicated via email, which was both efficient and effective.

Divorce is often times messy and emotional; and mine was no different. Even when opposing counsel could be brutal and liked to posture, Teri remained unphased and always handled the case with my interests in mind. My case was ultimately settled before trial. However, when we were in the courtroom, it was obvious that the judge and the officers of the court also held Teri in high regard.

I would highly recommend Teri and her entire team. I always found them to be honest, upfront and professional.

Attorney Michael Edwards is client focused and driven. He is excellent at responding in a timely manner. Attorney Edwards took the best approach for my case, it was also the most cost effective.

William Sweet, Michael Edwards and Connie Rhodes have been such a help since engaging their services. They have helped me every step of the way in navigating through challenging circumstances. While I started with William who just recently left, Micheal was able to pick up the pieces quickly to get a speedy resolution. Thank you to everyone for all your help.

In May of 2018 I received the unexpected notice that my wife of 20 years had filed for divorce. Upon reaching out to those I trust the most in life, multiple parties highly recommended Attorney Alison Krueger.

After taking their advice I walked into Alison's office with such sad emotions wondering how a marriage of 20 years could abruptly end--tears were flowing and I was extremely scared of what the future held for me and my children, not to mention my financial well-being. However, I was greeted by Alison's legal secretary, Maya, with the utmost compassion and she did an excellent job calming me down. I then sat down with Attorney Alison Krueger and immediately knew I was in great hands. Alison walked me through the process from start to finish and I left that first meeting knowing that I would make it through a very painful situation.

Attorney Krueger, Alison as she asked to be called, made this extremely difficult process easy for me to understand, she knew EXACTLY how to handle my emotional state and protected my rights as a father, as well as, my financial interests. Equally as important she kept the process moving forward and her communication with me throughout the process was phenomenal....absolutely phenomenal.

Whether you're on the receiving end of a divorce, or initiating it, I highly, highly recommend Alison as your counsel. Every detail was taking care of and I walked away from a painful situation knowing I had THEE best representation for me and my children.

Thanks to Alison and her legal team, me and my kids are on a positive path forward and we will forever be grateful for her and Maya:)

Alison has my contact information and you are welcome to call me with any questions:)

Terrible, heartless, represents fraudulent clients and knows it and her firm lies after knowing it's a conflict of interest and lies to judge!

My experience with attorney Rebecca Millenbach was fantastic. I was going through a divorce and she made a difficult situation as easy as it could be. With the help of her assistant Amber I truly felt I had people on my side looking out for my best interests as well as my sons. It was a good feeling after my first consultation knowing I was not alone in this. They made sure I was well informed of everything involved and made sure I understood every step and made sure I was comfortable with all decisions. I would highly recommend this firm and Rebecca.

The costs are prohibitive. I said I didn't want to spend much money on a post divorce settlement. Instead of keeping that in mind and me informed of how much time they spent, I was shocked to see the bill for one month.

I used Teri for a recent divorce. She fought for me and my child and didn't back down and was always brutally honest. Which is what I wanted. Sometimes, not always what one wants to here. The divorce didn't get nasty but had the potential to get serious to the point where I could have lost a lot, but if it had gotten to that point I had full faith. It was expensive but in this case you get what you pay for. Highly recommend Teri and her team.

Teri Nelson has been representing me for 7 years. I turned to Teri after being involved in a disappointing experience with another divorce attorney. Teri has proven to me to be loyal, efficient and discrete when handling all aspects of my case. I feel very comfortable with Teri handling any future endeavors with my case as she has proven to be an expert in her field and has demonstrated her ability to think outside of the box when necessary. Teri gets to the point, does not sugar coat expectations and is always beyond professional with me as well as when she is working on my behalf. I highly recommend her – Why go somewhere else when the best is right here!

It’s an unimaginable experience to divorce let alone disagree on what’s best for your children. Teri used knowledge, integrity, and experience to help me in my difficult and complicated divorce case. I was given sound advice and never felt like anything was sugar coated. I knew what the possibilities and outcome could be and therefore never felt surprised or mislead. I would definitely recommend Attorney Teri Nelson!!

Teri Nelson has been an excellent, reliable and supportive lawyer for me. Her office staff is amazing, always ready to answer questions and in the know about the situation. I recommend this practice highly. It was recommended as one of the best in Milwaukee by a good friend of mine who is also a lawyer. He was right! Teri's no-nonsense approach and good sense of humor helped me greatly getting through a rough time.
The outcome was excellent and I felt well-represented at all times.

I sincerely wish Teri was the first attorney I had hired for my divorce. If you are looking for a straight shooting, fair, and very experienced attorney look no further and save yourself a lot of time, headaches, and hassle and simply hire her. I found her and Teri and her staff to be very responsive, to my needs, and requests, their communication was simply fantastic, and Teri's advice was fair and spot on. Teri made a very difficult process about as straightforward and simple as possible. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic divorce attorney. My only regret is not hiring her first. Should you choose to hire Teri, you will not disappointed.

Child custody cases and divorce cases are tricky. I had to relocate out of state for my job and custody was an issue as this would be a greater than the maximum distance allowed. It was a lot and I knew I couldn't do it successfully without some legal guidance. No one would give me a straight answer over the phone. Some wouldn't even call me back. Then, I found Madeleine D. Olmstead. Madeleine is a no nonsense lawyer and got right to work. She will do exactly what is allowable according to Wisconsin Law. If you know what you want, need some sound advice, great follow through and some options to approaching a difficult case. then she just may be your answer.

I would highly recommend Alison and her assistant Maya as a team you want on your side. Alison was thorough and stood up for me whenever needed. Whether it was to the opposing counsel or in front of the judge. She explained everything to me from a technical side but also was able to take a more personal approach to help me with my decisions. When push came to shove, Alison never allowed me to be taken advantage of or accept unfavorable terms. The whole process with a contested divorce is brutal, but Alison provided a calming effect and a voice of reason that helped me through this process. If I could assign more than 5 stars, I would. I truly felt like she was behind me, not because I was her client, but because she was truly looking out for me in my case as well as for my future. Maya was also great explaining a lot of the legal documents and requirements during this process which helped to keep my stress level down.

First and foremost, I would like to thank Madeleine for her hardwork and commitment with my case. I had custody of my son for over a year while his biological mom bounced all over the United States then decided she was ready to be a mother and took him away. Not knowing my rights, I was limited with what I could and couldn’t do. I reached out Madeleine, explained my story with all details. She then told me that I have a great case and that with time, we would get my son back. After the first hearing, my son was able to return home for a temporary order. During this time, Madeleine continued to work on my case so we would be prepared for the final hearing. After a long year, the final hearing was scheduled. Madeleine presented all of the documents and preparation to the court. I now have primary placement and full decision making. I appreciate everything she did for me during that year and a half period. My son is home, safe, and happy as ever. She remained in contact with me through out the entire process. She walked me through how everything would look and gave me tremendous confidence in her and the system. Once again I would like to say thank you to Madeleine, I don’t know where me and my family would be without you. Thanks again!!!

In the interest of privacy, I don't want to rehash my whole situation, but let me say it was a non-contested, seemingly simple matter that I ended up finishing myself after the cost added up far beyond my initial $1,500 retainer (never imagined it would go beyond that). The only value provided to me was the initial filing of the paperwork. Beyond that, the costs of emailing and a couple phone calls quickly added up to nearly $3k, without atty olmstead even finishing my case. I will say if this firm is good at anything, it's collecting their additional retainers and money! They called me and emailed me more than for anything else! Granted, I've never been through anything like this and hopefully never will again, but I feel I ended up doing much of the work figuring things out myself and never was given any indication I'd burn though three grand with little to show for it--a complete unpleasant surprise. There were some other oversights and deficiencies, too. Not a good experience.

This organization is unprofessional. I was greeted by someone on the phone who spoke entirely too loud, yelling actually, and made assumptions about by my ability to pay the required retainer. I was turned away by an unknown person who noted that it didn't matter if I had money or not and that she didn't think I had the necessary funds and didn't want to be bothered with my concerns. She also noted that due to her perception of my finances that she didn't think we'd have a good working relationship and her firm exercises the right to turn clients away. Perhaps this firm does great work. But their customer service is horrendous.

I was referred to Rebecca Millenbach for assistance with a complex/frustrating issue involving custody. Resolving the matter quickly was of utmost importance. Rebecca replied to correspondence promptly, was compassionate and worked diligently on behalf of my son and I. I would highly recommend her services.

If you have to deal with an extremely difficult divorce, Rebecca would be the one attorney you should choose. Not only is she caring and passionate about her clients and their situation, she is also the person who would stand up and fight for you.
She can see right through the conning, lying and manipulative, spouse, that others are fooled by this seemingly, perfect person.
If you need a good attorney to help you through an extremely, difficult divorce, I highly recommend giving Rebecca MIllenbach a call.

I highly recommend this firm. Alison worked on my case and was extremely professional, responsive, informative. and level-headed. Mine was a long process and, like most divorces, very emotional. Alison struck a the right balance between empathy and business. Everything moved along as timely as possible and I always felt well-informed and updated. The advice I received was sound and the outcome of my case was about as good as can be hoped for in a case like mine. I felt like I was well represented and will be recommending Alison to anyone I know who might need a family law attorney.

Like pretty much worthless. I had to negotiate my settlement myself, and when when it came to documenting what we agreed to I saw very little interest in doing it right and offer any kind of value-additive advice. I basically had to write the text for the agreement too. I never felt my attorney had a good sense of the case from the start, probably my fault for going here, but once you are committed with time invested in legal fees (which add up quickly) you hate to start over.

Teri was there during one of the most devestating times in my life. When i walked into her office one afternoon with tears in my eyes and uncertainty she was a voice of reason. She was so compassionate and helpful in an area I had never been in and had no experience with. Teri answered countless emails filled with questions in a very timely manner. I never felt that I couldnt get a hold of her with anything I needed. I would recommend Teri to anyone in the future looking for a family law attorney.

I was going through yet another difficult situation with a very intimidating ex-husband regarding our children & felt very alone & nervous. I was searching for the best attorney because I needed someone on mine & my children's side. I met with Alison Krueger and immediately felt at ease & hired her immediately. My sister was so grateful to see me not so stressed because of Alison that she sent her "thank you" flowers. My very intimidating ex backed down from Alison's letter to him, we didn't even have to go to court. Since then, he has continued to cause issues and every time I immediately go to Alison. She is very responsive as well as the rest of her staff. Alison demonstrated tremendous legal expertise & professionalism. Whenever my ex sees that I have hired Alison, he immediately backs down & doesn't want to go to court. I HIGHLY recommend this firm and Alison Krueger as they are the best at helping during the most difficult times.

Going into the divorce not knowing what to expect the knowledge and experience that Teri Nelson has made a difficult situation a little easier to get through. I was very grateful to have had Teri and Shelley in "my corner" and having them always looking out for my best interest. The entire team that I had the pleasure of working with were very responsive to my calls/questions. If you want a team that will always give 100% ++ , the team at Nelson, Krueger and Millenbach is your team.

Teri Nelson is an amazing attorney who is extremely knowledgeable about family law. She and the staff at Nelson, Krueger & Millenbach are very responsive to all my phone calls and emails and kept me well informed of my case throughout the entire process. They have the ability to take a very difficult and stressful time in an individual's life and drastically lower your anxiety and put your mind at ease. I found the entire staff's demeanor very professional and comforting. Besides being thorough and knowledgeable, they are also friendly and confident and have a way of defusing hostile and emotional situations. Legal processes can be very overwhelming, but Teri explained the process every step of the way. I would highly recommend using Teri and her firm for any family law matter.

Teri Nelson handled my divorce, my experience with her and her staff was exceptional. Teri stepped right up with the utmost professional representation for me against a very volatile and vindictive ex. I was most impressed with the entire staff’s timely responses and attention to detail. Going through this nightmare that is divorce Teri was always there to answer any questions I had and even to just listen and provide guidance when I needed to vent. I would highly recommend her to others as being a leader in family law, her abilities to be sensitive, discreet but also tough and her meticulous knowledge of the law was the perfect blend that I need for this very difficult time in my life.
