Overview

David L. Weir was born and raised in Illinois, first venturing to Wisconsin to attend Beloit College. After graduating from Beloit College with a B.A. in Economics and Management (cum laude) in 1980, he went on to receive his law degree from Marquette University (cum laude) in 1983. He immediately began his law practice in Milwaukee, representing injured workers in claims for Worker's Compensation and Social Security Disability benefits, with the firm of Zubrensky and Weir. After nearly 25 years of practice in Milwaukee, he joined Stafford & Neal S.C. in 2007. Over the years, David has lectured extensively on the topic of Wisconsin Worker's Compensation benefits to a variety of audiences at union seminars, continuing legal education seminars, and the Wisconsin School for Workers. He has also been quite active in representing the interests of workers as a legal advisor to the Labor members of the Wisconsin Worker's Compensation Advisory Council, the body responsible for recommending changes to the Worker's Compensation Act to the state legislature.

David is married with two children. In his spare time, his hobby/passion is racing radio controlled cars, and enjoys competing at both local and national events with his teenage son.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
