About Honorable Jeffrey Conen

I joined Hansen Reynolds LLC in 2020 after a 23-year career as a Milwaukee County Circuit Judge, in which I presided over 400 jury trials in both civil and criminal cases. Prior to serving as a Circuit Judge, I was elected Municipal Judge in the City of Glendale and was in private practice, handling a variety of civil and criminal litigation matters. My extensive background as a judge and experience in private practice gives me the unique ability to see the parties’ needs and interests from a neutral position in a wide variety of legal areas. I have served on the faculty for the Wisconsin Office of Judicial Education for over 25 years and have taught judges in the areas of evidence, alternative dispute resolution, and a variety of civil litigation matters. I have a passion for finding alternative ways to resolve disputes in a quick and cost effective manner.
