Wisconsin Court of Appeals

Civil

Contracts — legal fees

Anne O’Connor, pro se, appeals a judgment in favor of Gimbel, Reilly, Guerin & Brown. O’Connor argues: (1) that the circuit court erred in ruling that she had a contract with the law firm to pay for legal services at an hourly rate; (2) that the circuit court’s findings of fact were clearly erroneous; (3) that the circuit court applied the wrong standard of proof; (4) that the circuit court misused its discretion in admitting evidence at trial; (5) that the circuit court should have allowed her to proceed with a counterclaim; (6) that the circuit court was biased; (7) that the circuit court should have recused itself; and (8) that the circuit court should have granted her motion for reconsideration. We resolve all of these issues against O’Connor. Therefore, we affirm. This opinion will not be published.
