Divorce or legal separation affects every aspect of your life, including family relationships and current and future finances. Separation and divorce can be emotionally and financially costly and destructive, but it does not have to be that way. Divorce should be seen as a problem to be solved, not a battle to be fought.
How parents navigate their divorce will affect their children for the rest of their lives. Child custody (major decision-making about medical, educational and religious issues) and placement (scheduled time with each parent) must be resolved by the parents or decided by a judge. A high conflict court approach can cause trauma for the children and damage to family relationships.
Estate planning is much more than "who gets what when you die". Planning ahead for your death or potential incapacity may not be pleasant but it is essential common sense. Estate planning is key to providing your loved ones with a roadmap if you should become unable to handle your financial or personal decisions while you are still alive as well as asset allocation upon your death.
Understand the legal and financial impact of marriage and property law before you get married. Create a financial roadmap for allocation of assets and debts in the event of death or divorce. For your convenience, we offer the option of virtual meetings instead of in-person. This includes statewide family law mediation for couples via Zoom.

Attorney Lindsey Kujawa was professional, kind, caring, dedicated and committed to bringing a mediative approach to the crafting of our parental agreement. I was referred to her from others in the family law mediation community who understand the value of co-parenting and the pro-social, and transformative approach that mediation can provide to families who are separated. I highly recommend Lindsey and Hansen & Hildebrand S.C. for families in need of thoughtful, caring attorneys.

I highly recommend Hansen & Hildebrand . I had a collaborative divorce and Attorney Paul Stenzel was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable and helpful regarding the law. He helped guide me through one of my most trying and emotional times of my life. I appreciate everything he did for me.
Thanks for everything!

Lindsey Kujawa was amazing to work with. She not only helped advise me in my child placement and support case, but she showed concern and compassion for me during a very challenging time. She made a personal connection and understood my priorities and goals. When additional challenges came up and I would become more upset or anxious, she was amazing with keeping me focused on the facts and my priorities/goals, saving me from unnecessary stress and anxiety. Highly highly recommend!!

Exceptional service, intelligent, forward-thinking, stellar professionalism, genuinely caring/compassionate, sensitive to client wishes and needs; the list goes on! I can't say enough good about this law firm and if I could add more stars to this 5-star rating, I would! Working with Greg Hildebrand and his team was a most pleasant and positive experience in what was perhaps one of the most terrifying and unpleasant situations of my life...facing divorce after 33 years of marriage. I could not imagine going through such a major life-altering event with anyone else representing me. Highly recommended

I highly recommend Hansen & Hildebrand, specifically Sue Hansen as a mediator. From the initial meeting explaining the mediation process to the final email confirming the decree was signed, Sue and the staff were thoughtful, patient, thorough, and impartial. We had the ability to make decisions regarding the focus of our agreement and how we wanted to prioritize what was important to us. Sue also referred us to a colleague to support crafting our family plan. The process was seamless and did not feel impersonal even though it was all conducted via Zoom. The pricing was upfront, the electronic tools

When you hire a lawyer, you are also hiring a mentor, a colleague, and an additional face that is supposed to represent you in a court of law among other distinguished professionals. When making this choice, I wouldn’t imagine having chosen any other firm to represent me. I have worked with Hansen & Hildebrand twice now while working through a rough divorce initially, and an emotionally draining dispute between my ex-spouse and I and there is a reason why I chose to come back, and will continue to come back to if (and hopefully not when) something else comes up. I first worked with Greg Hildebrand

Sue Hansen and her team were gentle, professional, efficient, and truly caring as I went through the divorce process. The Commissioner conducting my final hearing stated, “this is not a woman state, this is not a man state, this IS a kid state.” Sue and her team exuded that very important piece into all of our meetings. The level of hurt I had behind the reason for the divorce impacting my children was alleviated as best as possible through the mediation process. Excellent guidance was provided in all components of this situation. Sue and her staff were exemplary and compassionate while
