Biography

Kelly L. Neitzke primarily practices family law in Waukesha County, which includes cases involving divorce, custody and placement, support, and paternity. However, she will take referrals in surrounding counties, and also handles juvenile court matters, including termination of parental rights, step-parent adoptions, and guardianships. The cornerstone of Kelly’s practice is her relationship with her clients. She listens to clients and offers genuine compassion for their legal concerns. Kelly makes it a priority to communicate with clients and provide each client with her honest opinion regarding their needs, goals, and personal objectives.

Kelly is married and has two children, so she understands the importance of your family issues. Also, because legal services can be exceedingly expensive, Kelly uses the most cost-effective approach when handling all cases, so you won’t pay more than is needed to advance your case in the best possible way. Kelly receives frequent referrals from other satisfied clients and trusted attorneys in the area, and also frequently serves as Guardian ad Litem upon the request of the Waukesha County judges.

Kelly would be happy to meet with you to discuss your important legal matter and to begin to establish a quality relationship.
