Three Generations of Family Law Excellence in Kenosha

Marital disputes and domestic changes touch the most intimate aspects of life, including financial security, business ownership, and relationships with children. Established in 1970 by Attorney Thomas W. Anderson Sr. and located at 5401 60th Street Suite 1 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Anderson and Anderson Law Office, S.C. stands as a cornerstone of the southeastern Wisconsin legal community. The multi-generational practice continues today under the leadership of Attorney Thomas W. Anderson Jr. and Attorney Benjamin T. Anderson, two of only three Kenosha divorce practitioners recognized as Super Lawyers. Whether you need to hire an attorney to untangle complex business interests during a high-net-worth divorce or find a lawyer with a deep understanding of local family court procedures, this seasoned firm delivers sophisticated counsel rooted in over five decades of courtroom leadership.

Comprehensive Divorce and High-Asset Financial Division

Wisconsin operates as a no-fault community property state where marital property division requires meticulous documentation and valuation. Attorney Thomas W. Anderson Jr. leverages an undergraduate accounting background from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and experience at Arthur Andersen to navigate complicated balance sheets. When individuals retain the firm, their divorce lawyers provide formidable advocacy across critical financial areas:

• Complex Property Division: Valuing and dividing closely held family enterprises, professional practices, executive stock options, real estate portfolios, and retirement pensions.
• Spousal Maintenance: Evaluating earning capacities, marriage duration, and standard of living benchmarks to structure equitable temporary and permanent maintenance agreements.
• Child Custody and Placement: Structuring practical legal custody and physical placement schedules that prioritize children's well-being and protect parental rights.
• Child Support Calculations: Applying Wisconsin statutory percentage guidelines and addressing complex income determinations for self-employed individuals.
• Post-Judgment Modifications: Modifying existing support and placement decrees when substantial economic shifts, job transitions, or parental relocations take place.

Protective Restraining Orders and Child Welfare Matters

Domestic situations can escalate quickly, necessitating urgent judicial intervention. If you need an urgent attorney to safeguard yourself or your children, the firm prepares and litigates domestic abuse restraining orders, harassment injunctions, and child abuse protective orders in Kenosha County courts. Furthermore, the attorneys guide families through sensitive guardianship proceedings, termination of parental rights, and private adoption matters with absolute discretion.

Prenuptial Agreements, Simple Wills, and Appellate Practice

Beyond family trial litigation, Anderson and Anderson Law Office, S.C. drafts customized prenuptial agreements designed to safeguard family assets and establish transparent financial parameters before marriage. Serving as trusted wills lawyers, the firm also drafts simple wills and healthcare designations to ensure asset continuity.
