Your Hometown Law Office: Providing Personalized Legal Support Right at Home
We are a hometown law office with deep ties to the Fox Valley. Don Herrling opened his law practice in downtown Appleton in 1959, and he believed that even though the community was small, his friends and neighbors deserved top-notch legal services without having to go to the big city. As the years have passed, Appleton and the Fox Cities have grown, and so has our firm. With 17 lawyers joined by a professional support staff, we now offer more than 200 years of combined experience. We still hold firm to our founder’s belief in providing high-quality legal representation with a personal touch.
We are honored to be able to serve the legal needs of multiple generations of our clients’ families in Appleton, Green Bay, Oshkosh, and the surrounding Fox Valley communities. Contact us at 920-739-7366 to speak with an experienced, trustworthy lawyer.

Personal Injury
If you’ve suffered a serious injury or the sudden loss of a loved one, it can have significant effects on you and your family. Besides physical pain and suffering from a personal injury, you may also face unpaid medical bills, ongoing treatment costs, and potential disability impacting your income. It’s essential to explore options for financial compensation in such situations.
If you or a family member have been injured by a negligent driver, property owner, or trucking company, or have been bitten by a dog, our lawyers are here to offer the legal assistance you need.
Family Law
Divorce is a complex process involving legal, financial, and emotional aspects. It’s vital to have an attorney who can protect your rights and advocate for your financial security and children’s well-being. We can assist you in areas like property division, maintenance/alimony, child custody and physical placement, and child support. Our goal is to negotiate a favorable divorce settlement, and if needed, represent you in court.
Wills, Trusts, & Probate
Planning for your family’s financial security is crucial. Our estate planning attorneys can help you create wills and trusts to secure the future for your loved ones after your passing. We also provide assistance with powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and business succession planning. Our team represents executors and trustees in probate and estate administration cases. With our support, you can protect your family’s future and ensure your wishes are carried out as intended.
Business Law
For a business, it’s essential to protect yourself from liability and establish a solid foundation for success. Our business law attorneys can help you with business formation, shareholder agreements, and mergers and acquisitions. We also handle business litigation and representing employers in disputes with employees. Additionally, we assist with residential and commercial real estate transactions and litigation. Whether you’re a large or small business, we offer the representation you need to safeguard your long-term interests and profits.

I’ve had the privilege of using Rich for two previous injury cases and I’ve been very happy with the outcome of each. I’d highly recommend Rich Elrod for your Personal Injury needs and Herrling Clark Law Firm in general as I also use them for my business.

Paula is very knowledgeable and kept my interests foremost in the divorce. While the divorce was amicable, Paula made sure I avoided pitfalls and reminded my ex-wife that even though the three of us met, Paula represented me. Paula was concise in our meetings and kept the process flowing smoothly. Without hesitation, I would recommend her to others.
