Wisconsin Court of Appeals
Civil
Torts — legal malpractice — attorney-client relationship
Sieben, Grose, Von Holtum & Carey, Ltd., Attorney Paul F. Schweiger, and ABC Insurance Company (collectively, “Schweiger”) appeal a non-final order denying their summary judgment motion. They contend John and Arline Williamson have failed to satisfy their initial burden of showing the existence of an attorney-client relationship in this legal malpractice case. We agree, reverse, and remand for the circuit court to enter judgment in Schweiger’s favor. This opinion will not be published.
