Leece beginning practice in Elkhorn as an associate and ultimately a partner in the Sweet & Leece law firm and Ward D. Phillips beginning practice as an associate at Sweet & Leece, S.C. and ultimately becoming a partner in Sweet, Leece & Phillips, S.C., before the formulation of the current firm.

The firm maintains a strong representation in the business community as well as general family practice in the areas of general litigation, corporate, administrative, family and criminal practice. In addition, the firm's partners are actively involved in several non-profit organizations supporting the local community and area. These include the Aurora Health Board of Directors, Friends of the Matheson Memorial Library, the Walworth County Family Resource Center, the Elkhorn Area Penguins Youth Swim Team and others.

The firm also concentrates its practice in municipal law with shareholder, Ward D. Phillips, acting as the City of Elkhorn's attorney since 1999 and Randall G. Leece representing the Village of Sharon since 1988.

The firm feels strongly in the importance of giving back to the community and to that the profession should give back to the general public by providing pro bono services. Therefore, the firm maintains an active pro bono caseload at all times by both shareholders and associates.

In addition, shareholder, Ward D. Phillips, has served on the Legal Services of Wisconsin Board of Directors in the past from 1992 to 1996 (4 years).

The firm also provides pro bono seminars and services to various organizations in practice areas of expertise and sponsors teams for the Elkhorn Youth Soccer League, the Elkhorn Youth T-Ball League and many other community related organizations. The firm recently donated $10,000.00 to the Matheson Memorial Library addition project to support the library's expansion for the entire county.

The firm's facilities at 6 West Street in Elkhorn have been recently remodeled and expanded to include a new larger conference room for both firm business and community organizations. The firm maintains a range of resources for its clients, including computerized and Internet base legal research, as well as traditional book related research.

The firm prides itself on its ability to serve its clients both promptly and effectively. While no firm can guarantee the outcome of any legal matter, the firm shareholders and associates are of the opinion that serving the client's needs requires that clients inquiries be responded to promptly and compassionately and that lawyer and client agree on the facts and the law for submitting the matter for decision by a third party. It is with this in mind that the firm intends to continue to maintain the highest standard of professionalism, ethics, and service to its clients now and in the future.
