I maintain a civil trial practice emphasizing defense of businesses, financial institutions, insurers, and individuals.   My practice ranges from complex commercial litigation, personal injury litigation, legal malpractice defense, insurance litigation, class action defense, due diligence evaluations, ethics evaluations, and school law.. I am married and the father of two wonderful children.  When not working or enjoying my family, I am training for or running marathons, golfing, skiing, hunting, or fishing.

I have lived with my wife and 7 children in the Sherman Park neighborhood of Milwaukee since 1984.  Mylaw practice consists mainly of satisfied repeat clients and referrals from existing clients.  I try to provide quality legal representation at an affordable price. I listen to my clients.  I spend my non working time on my bike or trreadmill or reading or just relaxing. I am a member of many neighborhood organizations and try hard to give back to my community.

I have been helping indivduals and businesses in complex litigation matters for over twenty five years.  As a shareholder at Kerkman Wagner & Dunn I have experience representing shareholders in class actions and all types of business diputes.  I will honestly evaluate your case and explore likely outcomes to help you determine your best course of action.

I have been a trial lawyer since graduation from law school. I find the practice of law exciting. It is my calling. I have learned so much about so many different types of businesses and the manner in which business disputes arise. I have also experienced with my clients the devastation that come from personal injuries and challenges that they face which cause them to become involved in the legal system. All of those experiences have given me a strong and I believe unique set of skills in helping people find solutions to their problems. The largest corporate client and an individual client may present different types of problems in need of solution but all problems involve people and understanding people and how they act and interact is critical in all cases, big and small.. When I am away from work, I play the guitar and sing. I work in community theatre as an actor and singer. I volunteer in a variety of settings. Each of these experiences help to keep me grounded and focused. They also provide me with insight into the way a wide variety of people think and act which is critical in both choosing juries and presenting materials to juries.. The critical element in all problem solving is listening before acting. That is how I help clients to look at their legal problems and choose the path toward solutions.

I grew up in Detroit in a family of lawyers.  I am the fourth generation of my family to attend law school at the University of Michigan.  I am honored to work in this noble profession, and nothing makes me happier then to see the look on a client's face when I am able to obtain a settlement or resolution of their legal problems.. When I am not working on behalf of my clients, you can find me with my family or on the golf course.

I focus primarily on commercial litigation, including contract law, employment law, and proceedings within chapter 11 bankruptcy.. I view the relationships as the best part of my job. Whether I am dealing with a personal or business matter, there is someone who needs my help. My goal is to assist the client in obtaining the best possible result so that they can move forward.. When not working, I enjoy spending time with my family. My wife and I are blessed with two little boys. If there is time left in the day, I enjoy golf, fishing, and all things baseball.

I bring over fifteen years of personal and practical equine experience to my clients.  I have shown horses in the Midwest in hunter classes, reining, halter, western pleasure and equitation.  My equine membership affiliations have included 4-H, the American and Wisconsin Quarter Horse Associations, the National and Midwest Reining Horse Associations, the International Buckskin Horse Association, and the Oldenburg N.A./International Sport Horse Registry.  In addition to my State and County bar memberships, I am also admitted to practice before the U.S. District Court, Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin.

I am very lucky to be in a place where I can work with very talented people who also happen to be my friends.  One could not ask for more.
