Lindsey Burghardt is an attorney. that in our opinion we could never recommend. In our opinion Lindsey never showed any integrity only biase in a case that Lindsey was assigned to us as the GAL. We found Lindsey to have no integrity, she was not ethical and was very biase from the beginning of our case. Lindsey server as legal council to the opposing family to keep our grandchildren away from us. Lindsey went so low as to contact another attorney in a second case we were involved in, that Lindsey had no part of. When we confronted Lindsey about who contacted the other attorney her response was to blame other parties that were involved in our case that Lindsey was the GAL for. Lindsey tried to blame her unethical actions on someone else. So sad that she can not stand by her actions and tell the truth. During our case Lindsey's Mother passed away and we were told to give her time to greive. We felt remorse for the loss. We did respect her wishes and everything about our case was put on hold. The problem is that we had encountered the same issue. Lindsey didn't give us the same respect or courtesy that we offered her. During this time one of our parents had passed away and while we were out of town dealing with the death of a parent, Lindsey contacted our attorney threatening to file contempt charges against us for owing her company $400, that was three days late because of the timing of passing of our parent. She seems to be a heartless person who doesn't believed in keeping families together. Lindsey told my attorney that it was inappropriate to greive for a loss of a family member in front of children I never heard of such of an absurd thing in my life. So Lindsey believes that being heartless and anger are the only emotions that you should show children. So sad that Attorneys like her are working with children. It was always our belief that the court system tries to keep families together. Not in this case with Lindsey Burghardt as our GAL. In our opinion we believe that Lindsey gets enjoyment by seeing families split apart. If you ever wonder why we have so many violent crimes with with our youth here in Milwaukee it is because Attorneys like Lindsey that are keeping children in families that have little to no respect or value other people. As we were asked to meet with the opposing party by our attorneys and Lindsey to try to come to a mutual agreement. Lindsey gave legal counsel to the opposing party and told them to contact her the next day after our meeting. Lindsey never extended the same courtesy to us. Lindsey treated us like we were criminals even though we don't have any criminal background, not even a speeding ticket! If you were thinking about hiring Lindsey for any legal matters in our opinion we would pass. Since she is composing herself with no integrity I would also question the integrity of her business partners. Just beware of Lindsey Burghardt and her company. In our opinion If Lindsey is assigned as a GAL in your case do yourself a favor and request a different attorney as soon as possible.

I was very fortunate to have Kate McChrystal as my divorce attorney. I would highly recommend her. She was very capable, had a strong attention to detail and worked hard to move towards a settlement. Our case involved a private business, multiple homes and other assets so her creativity for a solution was invaluable.

Normally, I like to keep my personal matters very quiet and my opinions out of the public realm. However, it seems to me these days that so many people spend their time only talking about bad experiences that I thought it important to try to add some balance in the only way possible...with sharing my EXCELLENT experiences with Kate De Lorenzo and her firm! Divorce is a very difficult experience for all involved, especially the ones that didn't have anything to do with it or any say in the matter - the children. Sometimes when we are arguing with our ex-spouse, we get caught up in the same arguments and reasons for getting divorced and we get side-tracked. Kate has been so helpful in reminding me and reinforcing what is truly important. I have been the very fortunate beneficiary of an attorney and firm that has been with me from the very beginning, and through some extra difficult custody and support issues. By having a long-term attorney-client relationship, with a truly professional and caring demeanor, even when new issues come up we do not have to re-hash all of the past and play catch-up.
