Litigation, Trials and Appeals
The attorneys at Kay & Andersen have many years of experience successfully representing clients in litigation, including the trial of lawsuits and appellate proceedings. Our attorneys are admitted to practice before all state and federal courts in the state of Wisconsin. Experience and vigorous representation often determine whether success will be achieved in litigation, and our attorneys are zealous advocates for our client.
Our attorneys handle general civil, probate, family, large claims, small claims, paternity, lien claim, and foreign judgment court proceedings. We also represent clients in administrative proceedings and arbitrations. We represent clients in pre-litigation, informal negotiations and mediations. We frequently appear as local counsel for out-of-state parties to Wisconsin lawsuits and proceedings.
We also have substantial experience representing clients in cases on appeal. Attorney Andersen and Attorney Mich have represented numerous clients before the Wisconsin Supreme Court and/or Wisconsin Court of Appeals, including the following published decisions:
Individuals and businesses are routinely named as parties in administrative proceedings for a variety of reasons, including disciplinary proceedings, alleged violations of state or federal regulations, and other activities which are subject to regulation by a particular state or federal agency. Legal representation in administrative proceedings is critical because liability determinations are generally made by an administrative law judge (or other fact finder) based on the evidence received at an administrative hearing. Although parties may seek judicial review of an adverse decision before an administrative agency, failure to present the necessary evidence at the administrative level can limit the ability to pursue relief on judicial review. Proceedings at the administrative level are often scheduled quickly in comparison to court proceedings, so securing legal representation on a timely basis is recommended.
Kay & Andersen represents clients before state agencies, including the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Department of Revenue, Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Department of Workforce Development (DWD), Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF), Division of Hearings and Appeals, Department of Regulation and Licensing, and other state agencies.
We also represent clients in administrative proceedings before many federal agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Department of Labor, Small Business Administration (SBA), and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
