The MWL Story

Founded in 1990, Matthiesen, Wickert & Lehrer, S.C. (MWL), is a national and international insurance law firm. Insurance litigation lawyers from MWL have rapidly become among the most respected in the Midwest and throughout the country. Its partners have an extraordinarily strong and significant relationship with the insurance industry, giving them the perspective and the dedication to represent and counsel insurance carriers, their insureds, self-insured corporations, third-party adjusting companies and underwriters on subrogation, insurance litigation, and insurance coverage issues.

MWL is known for its cost-effective and practical solutions to insurance issues, yet maintains a strong resolve to take matters through trial if reasonable settlements cannot be obtained in defense matters and if reasonable recoveries cannot be negotiated in subrogation cases. Each of the firm’s attorneys has extensive jury trial experience and a strong record of obtaining defense verdicts and significant subrogation recoveries. Our lawyers average 30 years of trial experience. Compare that with the experience of firms you are currently using.

A full range of insurance services are offered by the experienced attorneys at MWL, including exceptional and knowledgeable representation in the areas of subrogation, civil litigation defense, workers’ compensation defense, insurance coverage, and defense of product liability claims with a focus on Asian manufacturers.
