Our Milwaukee office volunteered at the Urban Ecology Center as part of our 2025 Best Efforts community engagement firmwide initiative. Together, this group removed various types of invasive plant species from the park grounds to help ensure the community has a beautiful and thriving park to enjoy in the city.

Supporting Women's Fund of Greater Milwaukee

We support and encourage all our attorneys to find ways to give back and be part of the communities where they serve. This year, some of our attorneys were part of the Women’s Fund of Greater Milwaukee, helping women in Milwaukee build stronger futures for themselves, their families, and their neighborhoods.

Getting Outside the Office with Summer Associates

One of the highlights every summer is welcoming our Summer Associates to Milwaukee in style. This year, the group attended a Brewers home game which was a total home run! Associates enjoyed Milwaukee classics like brats and cheese curds while getting to know fellow attorneys at the firm.

Our Milwaukee Summer Associates and EDGE Interns spent 10 weeks working on real client experiences alongside seasoned attorneys. We’re grateful for their time, dedication, and support they provided to our team, our clients, and our greater Milwaukee community.
