This was the first firm that was willing to help me in a civil matter. Other firms, in Sheboygan, either did not respond or didn't/couldn't help. Their offices are located on the third floor, South-West corner of the building.
Great Attorneys, very knowledgeable and great to work with!
I personally had the worst experience with Humke. He and his “assistant” never got back to me. I’d have to send a follow up email and then I got charged for it each time. They also had the wrong email in for my contact so I never got a bill or what I was billed for. Attorney Humke stretched out my entire process for far too long. He told me dates when things should be completed and I wouldn't hear for weeks, so I’d again have to send another email or call, in which I had to pay for to get some kind of an idea of what was going on. I would say the most disappointmenting part was that he didn’t offer any options, suggestions, etc
I am sorry to read about any negative experiences with our firm. We value our clients' feedback and always appreciate the opportunity to address concerns directly with our clients. While I do not believe the claim here is a fair and accurate portrayal of events, our obligation to maintain confidentiality prevents me from publicly addressing the facts in an online complaint.
UPDATE: I filed a grievance against Atty Paul Dirkse with the state of Wisconsin OLR (Office of Lawyer Regulations). They recently came to a conclusion that he had violated several code of conduct rules and was therefore privately reprimanded by the state. I pray that another person does not experience what I have with Paul Dirkse and his colleague (Herbert Humke). It was a very unprofessional and stressful situation. (Posted in 2023) I would highly recommend choosing another law firm. A few years back I attained Paul Dirkse for some estate issues with a family member. He was helpful in the beginning, but after a while he became “frustrated” with how it was progressing and essentially stopped responding to my phone calls and emails. After not hearing from Paul for over a year, he contacted me this past March to apologize for his poor treatment towards me and said that he wanted to make it up to me. I was talked into coming into his office to meet with him and Atty Herbert Humke to see if there was anything that they could do regarding the estate issues. They both had a positive outlook and gave me renewed hope. At that time, I was told that a letter was going to be sent to the family member, regarding the estate issues, and that I would get a copy. After a few weeks, I contacted Herbert Humke to ask what the status was and at that time he told me a letter was sent at the end of April and that he would get me a copy. A few more weeks go by and still no copy of the letter. I tried contacting Herbert Humke several times over the next several months and did not receive any kind of a response from him or a copy of the letter. Two weeks ago I tried to contact Paul and Herbert by phone and left them messages with no response from either of them. A week ago, I sent an email to both of them and still have not received a response. If you’re looking for a reliable attorney, I would not choose the law firm of “Hopp Neumann Humke LLP”. They lack professionalism and compassion towards their clients. (Posted in 2022) We were looking for a lawyer to help us with some Family Law Services. We came across Paul Dirske. In the beginning, he was helpful and gave us hope, but after a while he became "frustrated" with how the situation was progressing with the other party involved. Without warning, he no longer responded to our phone calls or email messages. This was extremely frustrating, since we had signed, what we thought, was a legally binding contract with his law firm. His lack of professionalism only intensified an already stressful family situation.
Paul and his team are second to none. Paul really went the extra mile to ensure a pleasurable outcome! Outstanding profesional service partnered with impeccable communication is well deserving an A++ rating. Thanks again!!
Very unprofessional and unethical lawfirm. I can only speak from my experience with Oliver Bauer, but he uses witnesses that lie on the stand. I made him aware that purjery was committed, and the same witness was used as a credibility witness on another court date.
Paul was great.
Do not....I repeat do not hire Herbert Humke unless you want to be ignored. Tells you that you can't afford to file contempt of court!!! Tell you what Herbert I will take my money elsewhere.
Our firm values client feedback, but I don't believe this claim accurately represents events. I appreciate the opportunity to discuss any concerns directly with clients, but the rules of client confidentiality prevent me from publicly discussing cases online.
They care about their clients and are efficient. Great to work with.
I can only speak from my family's experience with Paul Dirske, but I would definitely recommend going elsewhere. In his estate work, he may have been acting within the law, but definitely not ethically. He showed favor towards one faction of the family, particularly as it related to personal property of a significant value. It exacerbated an already difficult and divisive family event.
I've been working with this law firm for about a year. They are professional and do the right thing. I've already recommended them and will keep recommending Attorney Humke to people who need assistance.
Very professional, quick response, honest and fair.
