While no one wants to find themselves in the middle of a heated legal battle, sometimes you don’t have a choice but to defend your business, assets, or your rights. When complex legal disputes arise, you need experienced litigation experts in your corner, helping you navigate the ins and outs of Wisconsin courts.
Our attorneys at Dempsey Law Firm have been involved in more than 6,500 civil disputes over the last 35 years. We analyze the strengths and weaknesses of your case to determine whether litigation is necessary or if settlement is the best route. When litigation is required, our team brings the tactical skill and strategic preparation needed to protect your interests in court.
Litigation is the process of resolving disputes through the court system, including everything from initial investigation and pleadings to trial and appeals. Our firm represents both plaintiffs and defendants, helping you navigate these proceedings with confidence and clarity.
When it comes to defending your business, our litigation team offers strategic guidance tailored to meet your needs. We help Wisconsin businesses navigate contract breaches, partnership disputes, trade secret violations, shareholder conflicts, and other complex legal disputes.
We represent Wisconsin employers in wrongful termination, discrimination, wage violations, and non-compete issues. With a strong legal background in Wisconsin statutes and court trends, we deliver strong representation that protects your interests and reputation.
Construction project delays, defects, and disputes are common here in Wisconsin. When complications arise, we represent contractors and help them protect their financial interests. We’ll do our best to keep your project on track and resolve conflicts efficiently.

Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never easy, especially when disputes arise. We help Wisconsin families and fiduciaries navigate will contests, trust disputes, guardianship issues, and more with empathy and clarity to reach a resolution.
A ruling may not be the final word. Our experienced attorneys handle appellate litigation for clients seeking to challenge or defend lower court decisions in Wisconsin’s appellate courts. Whether before the Wisconsin Court of Appeals or the Wisconsin Supreme Court, we bring sharp analytic thinking and persuasive written and oral arguments.
Not always. We are able to resolve many cases through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration here in Wisconsin. However, we’re fully prepared to represent you in litigation before a Wisconsin judge or jury if it comes to it.
Bring contracts, emails, court papers, photos, and any other important documents. The more details we have upfront, the better we can assess your case and outline your legal options.
If they have a legal connection to Wisconsin, then yes. We regularly represent clients in cases involving out-of-state defendants in Wisconsin courts if they caused harm or did business here.
