Frequently Asked Questions:

Do you work with clients throughout Wisconsin, or primarily in the Madison area?

We serve clients across the entire state of Wisconsin from our offices in Milwaukee, Fox Cities, and Madison. While we are deeply rooted in the Madison community, our expertise in financial recovery and business consulting is not limited by geography. We have successfully assisted individuals and businesses from the Illinois border to the Upper Peninsula. Modern technology also allows us to work seamlessly with clients anywhere in the state through virtual meetings, though we are always happy to meet in person when needed.

What information will you need from me to start the initial assessment?

To make the most of our initial conversation, having some basic information on hand is helpful. This allows us to quickly understand your situation and provide meaningful initial feedback. You don't need to have everything perfectly organized, but if you have any of the following, please bring it or have it ready:

  • Recent financial statements (e.g., balance sheets, profit & loss statements).
  • Investment account statements related to your concerns.
  • Relevant correspondence (e.g., with brokers, business partners, or creditors).
  • Details about the specific financial issue or loss you've experienced.

Don't worry if you're missing some items; the most important thing is that we have a conversation. We can help you identify what's needed as we move forward.

What does the process look like when we start working with you?

Our process is designed to be collaborative and transparent, with clear stages:

  • Discovery & Assessment (The "What Happened?" Phase): We begin with a deep dive into your financial situation. This involves gathering all relevant documents, analyzing the data, and identifying the root causes of the problem, whether it's investment misconduct, business distress, or a partnership dispute.
  • Strategy & Plan Development (The "What Can We Do?" Phase): We present our findings to you in clear, straightforward terms. Then, we work with you to develop a tailored action plan. This plan will outline the recommended path forward, the anticipated steps, and the associated fees.
  • Execution & Advocacy (The "Taking Action" Phase): We implement the plan on your behalf. This could involve negotiating with creditors, building a financial recovery claim, providing forensic accounting for a legal case, or managing a business turnaround.
  • Resolution & Moving Forward: We work diligently to achieve the best possible outcome for you, keeping you informed at every step. Our goal is not just to solve the immediate crisis but to put you on a stable path for the future.

What is included in the free consultation?

Our free, one-hour consultation is a no-obligation opportunity for us to listen to your situation and for you to evaluate if we are the right fit. Here’s what you can expect:

  • A Confidential Discussion: You can speak openly about your financial concerns in a private, judgment-free setting.
  • An Expert Review: We will ask key questions to understand the core issues you're facing.
  • Initial Assessment: We will provide our preliminary, high-level thoughts on the strengths of your case and the potential paths forward.
  • Clear Next Steps: If we believe we can help you, we will outline what the next steps would be, including what our engagement would look like and how our fees are structured.

The consultation is for you to get answers and clarity. There is no pressure to hire us, and you will leave with a better understanding of your options.
