Abt Swayne Law has been serving Southwestern Wisconsin since 1986.

Abt Swayne Law is the preferred choice for municipal law representation in Southwestern Wisconsin, including Vernon, Richland, Crawford and La Crosse counties. We combine our wealth of experience with a locally-rooted, cost-effective and common-sense approach; and this is why local governments—counties, towns, villages and cities—turn to us for their legal needs.

Attorney Nikki C. Swayne, along with our trusted paralegal, Aline Hess, focuses the firm's practice on municipal law, representing counties, towns, villages and cities across Southwestern Wisconsin. Firm founder David L. Abt, now retired from active practice, remains closely involved as a mentor, lending his decades of insight to the firm's continued work. Over its history, the firm has also handled general civil law, real estate transactions and litigation, business law, personal injury, family/divorce law, estate/probate, farm law and litigation, and construction law and litigation, representing local governments, local banks and many farms and businesses.

We served as corporation counsel to Vernon County for over a decade and serve as municipal attorney to numerous towns, villages and cities, as well.

With a sharp focus on detail and unmatched expertise, Abt Swayne Law always has its clients' best interests in mind. If your case is not the right fit, Abt Swayne Law will gladly refer you to a vetted, trusted list of partner firms, to ensure you obtain the best possible outcome.
