Bakke Norman

Bakke Norman was founded in 1985 by Gary Bakke, George Norman and Tom Schumacher to provide comprehensive legal services to individuals, businesses and municipalities in Northwest Wisconsin, while developing and maintaining a reputation for the highest personal and professional standards in the region.
The three founders started small, with their first office located in the historic New Richmond Heritage Center. The firm soon expanded, moving across the street to a new office building in New Richmond while adding attorneys and offices in Baldwin and Menomonie. In January 2021, our fourth office opened in Eau Claire. Today, we continue to provide superior quality legal services from these four locations to clients throughout Northwest Wisconsin.

What Are People Saying About Us?

Julio Silva
I hired Peter Reinhardt of Bakke Norman 5 years ago to help me with an employment dispute…that has taken 5 years to resolve. He and his paralegal are extremely competent, experienced and hard working. There were 5 components with 2 separate cases, which were very challenging to take on. It was a “David vs. Goliath” type of situation and once again with their help, “Goliath” was defeated, I highly recommend Bakke Norman and specifically Peter Reinhardt and Timothy O’Brien to help you with your legal matters.

I recently referred an acquaintance to Bakke Norman after she was involved in an auto accident. For anyone who has been in an auto accident, it can be a very stressful time working with various auto insurance companies, auto body shops and health care providers for injuries. This firm will help minimize stress and focus on doing whatever they can do to help represent you. I would highly recommend the Bakke Norman legal team to anyone! Thanks

I haven't actually visited them, nor have I paid for their services, yet. I left a voice-mail requesting a consult late on a Friday, & received a call back before noon the following Monday. It was very informative & helpful. If I move a case further, I will be contacting them again & requesting their service.
