Richard Reilly brings the sharp strategic instincts of a litigator to the delicate practice of family law. He honed those instincts while serving five years as a trial lawyer in the United States Department of Justice and the United States Attorney's office. He joined the firm in 1971 after trying literally hundreds of cases, an experience unique in a family law attorney. This experience more than anything has shaped Richard's passion for preparation, and he demands much from his capable and loyal staff. Combine that with the fact that he is a strong negotiator, and you see what makes him such a powerful advocate for his clients. His uncompromising style serves him well in an area of practice dominated by compromise; so well that Richard has been recognized as one of Milwaukee Magazine's Best Lawyers in Family Law, including divorce, custody disputes, and paternity cases, particularly regarding financial issues.
