What Our Wisconsin Clients Say

Bailey has helped navigate on ongoing extremely stressful situation in our lives with ease and professionalism and feel supported by her as well.

Respectful and Professional

Communication

Holly was very knowledgeable, diplomatic and professional in a challenging situation. That being said, I felt she could have managed our time better. Neither Brian nor I were aware that we were limited to 5 sessions until Holly mentioned it at the very end of our 4th session. It is of course mentioned in the contract we signed and we were responsible for knowing that. Because it is such an emotionally fraught experience we both missed it. Holly had no reason to believe we were unaware of this fact, I'm just suggesting that in the future it might be helpful if she mapped out what needs to be accomplished in each of the 5 sessions at the beginning. At the end of the 4th when she said we only had one session left we were both stunned. We wound up spending almost $7500 and are left with no settlement agreement. \\n\\nThis mediation was particularly difficult because it turns out Brian was in nearly dissociative denial and not really able to take in our discussion. There's nothing Holly could have done about that. The only thing that might have helped would be to have gotten to the financials earlier so at least we'd have had time to wade through the denial.

Austin is a knowledgeable and easy to work with.

Ellen was amazing. Everyone at sterling was just amazing!

Informative and compassionate

I enjoyed working with Bailey. She was very knowledgeable. She also gave me good advice.

Always willing ti answer. My questions .and very understanding

I would give Atty Austin Miller a 10 for his service in mediating our divorce. He was very kind, empathetic, understanding and extremely easy to work with. It was very much appreciated!

The feeling of you are understood at the end of the meeting.

Genuine Kindness

Andria was very easy to deal with and explained everything perfectly. I was very overwhelmed with all of this and did not know what to expect in court. The first lawyer I had explained nothing to me and I could barely get a response from her. Andria answered more questions and gave me a better understanding in 15 mins then I recieved from my lawyer I had for almost a month.

I enjoyed working with Bailey. She was very professional. She was also very knowledgeable. I had a great outcome.

During my trial that was quite lengthy, Jack Braaten was there and walking me through what needed to be done. Although frustrating at times at how long the court system takes, he fought for me so I was heard and in times of uncertainty he reassured me. Now I am in a good spot working on making it even better. In the end, Jack Braaten came through for me, going above and beyond to help me.

She was wonderful. \\r\\nA big fat 10 !!

Knowledgeable kind and Caring

I cannot recommend Jodi enough! Going through a divorce is one of the most challenging experiences, but Jodi made the entire process so much more manageable. From our very first meeting, she showed professionalism, compassion, and a deep understanding of the legal system.\\r\\n\\r\\nJodi was always available to answer my questions, kept me informed throughout the process, and ensured I felt supported every step of the way.\\r\\n\\r\\nWhat truly stood out was Jodi’s genuine care for my situation and her meticulous attention to detail. She’s not only an incredible attorney but also a person who truly advocates for her clients’ best interests. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dedicated, Jodi is the one to call. I’m so grateful for everything she did for me!

My experience was positive all the way across the board from beginning to end. Attorney Crawford explained everything in great detail to give me an understanding on how the process was going to work and he also answered all my texts and phone calls in a timely fashion. If I had any concerns or questions Attorney Crawford addressed those with me and made sure I was comfortable moving forward in the process

Professional and courteous

I haven't decided on retaining yet but the attorney was friendly, listened, and offered very clear information. I liked the consultation process and the reminders and other information that came to me via email and my text messages.

Attorney Abigail was a pleasure working with her. She was very responsive to my emails. She truly worked with me through my divorce. She did what was best for me. I would contract her again if I ever need a lawyer again.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Let’s be real-going through the divorce process can be absolutely terrifying. From the moment I spoke with the Law Firm, I could feel my breathing return to normal and an overall comfort! I had a team behind me! Jack and his paralegals got right to work on my case and have helped me to be able to speed up the court process. I can now move forward with life and the “new normal”.

Jodi was a great help in explaining all the forms and submitting them to the courts. She truly cared about getting all the information correct and making sure I understood the entire process. If you and you spouse can agree on an uncontested divorce I would highly recommend Sterling to handle your case.

I felt so wonderful and comfortable sharing my story. I wasn’t judged and I felt very heard. I feel like there has been a weight lifted off my shoulders that and I know I will get the help I have been needing.

The start of my experience with the 1st attorney I had wasn't the best as he seemed scattered and unorganized at my temporary hearing and lack of communication, but when my case was switched over to Jack it was a much better experience.

Efficient, kind, detail oriented. Staff from the from to the attorney were all very kind.

Tiffany did a fantastic job listening to me and understanding my situation and helped get the best outcome for me and my kids. Thank you Tiffany!

Tiffany was great to work with

Tiffany

Assigned attorney largely non-responsive. Doesn’t keep me posted on at least weekly updates or at least let me know his week is booked. Staff don’t respond to emails or calls (likely busy). Assigned attorney caught flat-footed/unprepared trusting other side. Had bank account statements for two months from other side and only shared after repeated requests. Asked three times over a month to get tax info from other side. Didn’t feel attorney stood up for me. Conversely, assigned attorney is excellent at playing the long game, focusing on 100 meter target just doesn’t communicate intent well to assuage concerns. I’m certainly not anywhere near your most important client, I’m very responsive, and not needy just a little forward leaning engagement and communication letting clients know/understand context of today’s actions against the long game instead of just facts. These are the majority of my concerns.

My lawyer Ellen Rhodeman is doing a great job l would highly recommend her to other people

Very little communication  I really have no idea what's going on with my case week to week. If I ask for a call for clarification it has been granted, but it seems the attorney and other staff are pressed for time and try to get me off the phone very quickly. (Granted, I have not been pressing for more because it's still early, but time is beginning to pass more rapidly and I cannot afford to extend the contract&)

I felt from the first phone call everyone in the office was more than willing to help in any way.
