Brittany WaukeshaIt took years to undo the damage that had been done to my wife and me. This process was hard. Doctors, healing, dealing with the trauma, and all the raw emotions throughout. The last thing we needed was the burden of a lawsuit hanging around our necks while we recovered. I am happy to say that this was not the case. From the MOMENT we came in and spoke with Robert L. Jaskulski he started making things easy. The support from the staff at Habush Habush & Rottier was nothing short of amazing. No lawsuit is ever a sure thing, but I will tell you that I have rarely seen someone so prepared and thorough when our time for settlement came. Professional, knowledgeable, and a master-class negotiator we would not hesitate to contact Robert in a second if we needed him and I cannot recommend him and his staff enough.
Diana & Seth MilwaukeeWhen answers seemed miles away. I reached out to Rob to find truth, closure, security, and peace of mind. I had a very long and very difficult case, with many twists. Rob kept pushing forward, he went all the way to the Supreme Court. He fought and succeeded in changing a law for my case and paved the way for cases like mine in the future. Rob invested an incredible amount of time in my case. He was courageous, dependable, and fearless. I am grateful for Rob and his wonderful staff and would recommend Rob to anyone needing legal representation.
