Divorce in Wisconsin

Wisconsin divorce laws require a waiting period after the petition for divorce has been filed. During the waiting period (120 days), financial matters are resolved. The marital property laws of Wisconsin presume an equitable property division.

It is usually during the waiting period that issues come up between the spouses, such as who will retain the family home, how will the custody of the children be handled, and how will future financial obligations be handled. Fortunately, Attorney Ann Brandau is a trained mediator with decades of experience. She helps her clients work through all of the issues, and under how the law may affect them in the future.
