Milwaukee Litigation Lawyer
There are a wide range of legal issues that can arise from the operation of a business.
While the attorneys in our Business & Financial Services Group often resolve issues before they escalate to litigation, KMK’s Business Litigators are prepared to step in when matters proceed to court. Our attorneys understand that effective legal strategy requires a careful balance of thorough legal analysis and the client’s business priorities. Our mission is to provide clients with clear and accurate assessments of the opportunities, risks, and costs associated with their options—always grounded in a deep understanding of their goals and financial constraints. We offer comprehensive representation in administrative proceedings and in both state and federal courts, regularly handling trial and appellate litigation in class actions as well as on behalf of individual businesses. Additionally, we represent plaintiffs and defendants in both voluntary and compulsory arbitration and mediation. Our goal is to achieve the best possible outcomes in light of the economic realities in which our clients operate.
