LAUFENBERG, STOMBAUGH & JASSAK, S.C. Milwaukee / Platteville “Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” —Theodore Roosevelt We work for Wisconsin families who have suffered injuries and losses because of the carelessness of others or who have experienced the wrongful denial of insurance benefits. We are trial lawyers who represent real people in courtrooms across the state. It is work worth doing because we can make a real difference in their lives. Many of the people we work for are sent to us by other lawyers. Many come at the suggestion of our past and present clients or learn about us through a visit to our website at lauflaw.com. Regardless of how they find us at our Milwaukee or Platteville offices, we are committed to do the hard work necessary to provide caring, professional assistance in a time of need. 8 Cudahy High School
All four of our principals have once again been selected in Super Lawyers® and we are proud that our senior associate, Matt Allen, has been recognized in 2011 Rising Stars. Lynn Laufenberg has been honored with his 3rd selection on the Top 10 Wisconsin Super Lawyers list. These recognitions are appreciated, but the best prize would be the opportunity to work hard to make a difference in your time of need. Laufenberg, Stombaugh & Jassak, S.C.
