From the moment I walked into their office, I felt relief. Their office is professional, and courteous, and they made every effort to obtain the best outcome in my case. I returned several years after on a post-judgment issue and I received the same exceptional legal service and genuine care. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone needing help like I did. Very satisfied and grateful.
Karen H.
I received two traffic citations in Racine, WI. I knew I needed an attorney to help me in Court. I hired the law office of Renée E. Mura. Their representation resulted in a dismissal on one ticket and a non-moving violation on another. I was very happy with the firm and how they handled my case. I would return again if I needed any further legal services. Very satisfied!
