Burbach & Stansbury S.C. - Milwaukee, WI

I worked with Carlton in 2007 to write a pre-nuptial agreement. Unfortunately, I ended up having to utilize that prenup in my recent divorce. The prenup was ironclad and completely protected my hard-earned assets from the divorce as well as my personal belongings. I highly recommend spending the money for a prenup or even a postnuptial agreement. The divorce was odd as it was a pandemic-based divorce so not a lot of face-to-face interaction with attorney's or judges, but Colin and Carlton helped me navigate this. It was frustrating as a process, but they were not only excellent at representing me but acted also as a therapist when the frustration boiled over and I needed to talk out some issues. Trust is something you have to have with an attorney and from the start of this I explained what I wanted and where I wanted to be and trusted in them to have my best interest. While the ex went thru three (3) attorney?s, Colin and Clayton remained steadfast in their support for me and represented me admirably with respect, professionalism and when needed were firm with both myself and opposing attorneys. Frequently I would just trust that Colin or Clayton could represent me without me being present (which sometimes speeds things up in legal speak) and I never felt at risk. I have recommended the services of both Colin and Carlton to friends for mediation, prenups, and divorce assistance and I will continue to do so.

Colin Drayton was a beacon of calm for me during a stressful time. He was always available to answer any questions or concerns I might have had and answered in terms I could understand. He followed through in a timely manner and proved many times over that "he did his homework". He was conscientious of our time together knowing of my financial constraints and was always well prepared. And I'd like to add that he is just a pleasant person to know!

I highly recommend Burbach and Stansbury to anyone looking for representation in matters of family law. They helped me work through the best course of action a step at a time when things were very difficult in my family life. I spoke with three lawyers at the firm at different times, and I really appreciated the team approach they took. Having the right representation can make a huge difference when things get really tough, and I was very happy to have chosen this firm.

I had complete confidence in their recommendations, and trusted their direction and advise. Their expertise and creative ideas were the reason I was able to be divorced in a reasonable time-frame, and felt secure in the outcome.

From my first consultation through the end of my divorce (and beyond) Kate Neugent helped me through every step. Our family unit was unique as we were dissolving a same sex marriage after being together and having kids for decade. With the ability in the last few years to get legally married, this made our divorce uncharted territory. My biggest worry was having the kids taken away or not have the ability for them to be under my insurance. Kate was able to not only help me with the divorce, but also help me gain parental rights to my children by securing my name on their birth certificates. During this emotional and confusing time for me, I would receive responses to inquiries about my case usually same day that would ease my worries as if I just got off the phone with a close friend. I highly recommend Kate Neugent.

I work in the legal industry, so I did my homework prior to hiring Carlton and Collin. Carlton was at the top of the list of every person I asked, including judges. This team did not disappoint. Divorce is scary but they made it less so. They were patient, kind and very knowledgeable. More importantly, they were able to handle difficult details and had creative solutions during the mediation process. They understand both numbers and the law. I have already recommended them to another friend whose situation seemed impossible. Their handling of that case was true brilliance and saved my friend a staggering amount of money. Carlton?s calm presence in a courtroom is one of his best assets. Anyone in my industry knows you get what you pay for when it comes to legal expertise. Carlton and Collin set the bar high. I highly recommend, especially for business owners or where there are substantial assets involved.

As I was looking for legal representation for my recent divorce, Carlton Stansbury and Colin Drayton were recommended by many. They proved to be a good choice. My divorce was long and contentious. With their calm demeanor, both Colin and Carlton eased my anxiety and provided support throughout the process. They were always attentive to my questions and concerns; and addressed them thoroughly by explaining and laying out the options, providing legal guidance, and reminding me to make all decisions in my best interest. I highly recommend them.

Colin Drayton was a steady and supportive guide for me during a complicated divorce. He was the consummate professional, empathetic, and always took the time to delineate how he thought we should proceed and why. Colin was also very conscious of my circumstances. I had cancer at the time of my divorce, and the healthcare bills kept rolling in. Colin made sure to take my health and financial concerns into his approach to the divorce. Colin?s ability to strategize and anticipate what would happen if we executed plan A or B was astounding! He was always available to take my calls, and no matter how busy he was, he engaged with me pleasantly. Colin answered all questions or concerns I might have had and promptly addressed my questions or concerns, no matter how big or small. I have complete faith in him and would recommend him to anyone!

I strongly recommend the firm of Burbach and Stansbury for any family law needs. In the past ten years, I have used their services for several difficult situations. No one anticipates needing an attorney to mediate or assist in the ending of a marriage or to navigate issues around child placement or custody. In fact, I can't imagine a more difficult time in one's life. At different points, I have worked closely with Carlton Stansbury, Colin Drayton and Sarah Whiting. In every circumstance they were competent and resourceful and I always felt as if they were working tirelessly on my behalf. I would not hesitate to work with any of them again in the future.

When I first met with Burbach & Stansbury I appreciated their approach and honesty. They did not promise we I could get everything I wanted but said they would do their best to help me get a fair and equitable settlement and I feel we accomplished that. I started out only looking for them to offer guidance and answer questions and when the situation changed I asked them to represent me. This flexibility was important to me. A divorce is never fun and definitely not an easy process, but Colin was always responsive to my questions and concerns. He would listen to my concerns about the situation and offer me a couple of ways he thought we could handle it. He would give me his professional opinion about what to do, but I always felt the choice was mine to make. I would highly recommend Burbach & Stansbury to anyone looking for an easy to work with and fair divorce lawyer or just looking to understand the process and their options when navigating a divorce.
