Lawyers background

Kevin Lonergan is a partner at Herrling Clark Law Firm. He is recognized within the legal community for handling complex litigation matters for clients with catastrophic injuries and for clients who have lost loved ones. Although most cases settle, he has a reputation for trying cases and has had a high percentage of cases where the ultimate jury verdicts far exceeded the insurance companies’ pre-trial offers of settlement. Kevin has handled many million and multi-million dollar cases.

Kevin has been recognized as one of the state’s top lawyers by a number of organizations. Kevin was recognized in 2019, 2020 and 2021 as one of the top 10 lawyers in the state of Wisconsin, and has been recognized as one of the top 50 lawyers from 2015 to the present, in the state-wide magazine “Super Lawyers” list. He is one of only a few lawyers in the state who have been named to the Super Lawyers list (top 5% of all attorneys in the state) each year that the Super Lawyers designations have been recognized. Kevin had the distinct privilege of being named Wisconsin’s “Trial Lawyer of the Year” by the Wisconsin Association for Justice. At the time of Kevin’s nomination and selection, only 14 other lawyers had received the same honor in the organization’s almost seventy-year history.

Kevin is rated 10 out of 10 by Avvo. He was previously named as the top personal injury and products liability lawyer in the Fox Cities. He has also been rated as one of the top trial lawyers nationally. He is a board-certified civil trial specialist accredited by the National Board of Trial Advocacy and has also received the highest possible national ratings for legal ability and ethics by an international rating service. Kevin has been named a “Fellow” of the Wisconsin Law Foundation, an honor bestowed on only 2.5% of all practicing lawyers. He is past president, vice president, and member of the Wisconsin Law Foundation’s Board of Directors. Kevin is also a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates, an invitation-only organization with highly experienced lawyers who exhibit virtues of civility, integrity, and professionalism with a national membership of roughly 7,600 lawyers, balanced equally between plaintiff and defense lawyers and judges.

  • Kevin facilitated the negotiations for a realistic settlement. Laurel and Kevin were very helpful whenever we had questions, taking the time to answer them fully and following up with written explanations when appropriate.

  • Kevin [and] his associates (team) were great to work with. Throughout the whole process, they kept me up to date on things and had great communication. Although it was a longer time frame that we worked together, I was pleased with the results in the end. They were very helpful and friendly at all times.
