We have been exclusively using Petrie & Pettit for ALL things related to landlord-tenant for the last 6 years. Quite frankly, while there are a lot of good options for legal counsel in Milwaukee, I'm not sure any of them possess the knowledge of landlord-tenant law that the attorneys at Petrie & Pettit have. We have even referred other attorneys to them. They are, in my opinion, the most well informed and successful attorneys we have worked with in real estate related transactions.
