I worked with attorney Rebecca Milenbach and was consistently impressed by her professionalism, clarity, and steady approach. She guided me through a difficult process with patience and perseverance, even when things weren’t easy. Rebecca stayed on top of every detail, communicated clearly, and always maintained a calm, thoughtful demeanor. I appreciated her practical advice, strong advocacy, and the way she kept things moving forward. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a strong, level-headed family law attorney.

I highly recommend this law firm. They are very knowledgeable attorneys that try to get everything you deserve. I ve worked with both Maddie (no longer with the firm, now is with federal courts) and Valerie. Both ladies should compassion and worked hard on my case to get me everything I had coming to me. I ve had to use them the last 4x I had to go to court and I won all 4x. If you want a law firm that will fight hard for you look no further.
Frequently Asked Questions About Nelson, Krueger & Millenbach, LLC
Can I get a divorce if my spouse won’t sign?
Yes, in Wisconsin either spouse can obtain a divorce, even if the other party objects. A “contested divorce” is a dispute over the details of divorce, but a spouse cannot make you stay married.
What is the purpose of a legal separation?
A legal separation allows spouses to live apart and maintain separate finances without dissolving the marriage. Spouses might stay married for religious reasons or in hopes of reconciliation, or for practical reasons such as staying on a spouse’s health insurance.
How can a father win a custody battle?
The law does not favor either parent in determining custody. A father seeking primary custody must demonstrate to the court that he has been the primary caregiver, that he can provide a more stable environment or that it is in the child’s best interests to live with Dad.
How is child support calculated?
The Wisconsin child support guidelines are based on the number of children, the percentage of placement and the incomes of both parents. If the child lives more than 75% of the time with one parent, the formula is based on a percentage of the other parent’s income.
Can a dissolution be changed?
In general, you cannot change a property settlement after the divorce decree (dissolution) is issued. But either party can ask the court to modify custody, child support or spousal maintenance orders if there has been a significant change in circumstances.
