Thomas J. Nitschke Email & Phone Number

Over twenty years of service to an extremely diverse group of clients. The philosophy which I embrace is first to be of service to my clients. Sometimes that requires advising clients to take an action which they do not wish to take. It is important, however, to keep your clients fully informed so that they can make intelligent decision concerning their future. This is true whether you are involved in complex commercial litigation or a divorce proceeding. The wide range of cases in which I have been successful in representing clients in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Federal Court in the Eastern and Western District of Wisconsin and the Northern District of Illinois, as well as before the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of the United States, include;1. Family law matters, including dissolution of marriage, paternity actions, and post petition enforcement actions involving custody, placement child support and marital support;2. Commercial litigation, including property disputes, lien disputes, contract disputes, employment matters, and judgment enforcement;3. Adversary claims in bankruptcy;4. Real estate transactions, commercial sales and lease transactions, residential sales, foreclosure defense, and landlord/tenant litigation;5. Securities litigation; and6. Attorney malpractice, including both plaintiff’s claims and defense.In addition, I have successfully obtained: six figure federal jury verdict for unpaid commissions, six figure bench trial award in favor of counter-claiming home owners, successful defense of an attorney malpractice claim and a six figure jury verdict on a counterclaim, six figure bench trial award in a real estate dispute, defense of Intellectual Property claims in arbitration including an award of attorneys’ fees paid by the claimants, multiple successful commercial arbitrations, and numerous successful family law trials.
