The Ross Seymour Story…
A native of Middleton, Wisconsin, I graduated from the University of Wisconsin Law School in 1987. I was the first male in my family to attend college, and was the first to gain a graduate degree. During law school, I interned at the Court of Appeals, District IV in Madison. Working so closely with judges allowed me to gain an insight into their decision-making processes.
After law school, I knew two things: I wanted to stay in Wisconsin and I wanted to practice in a small city. La Crosse has been the ideal choice. I began with a general practice at a local law firm and soon moved over to Davis, Birnbaum. I became a partner with Atty. James Birnbaum and specialized in Employment Law. This is no longer the focus of my practice, as I’m focusing on estate planning.
In my free time, I enjoy bicycling the roads of the Coulee Region. In my younger days, I did a cross country bike ride and recently have done the RAGBRAI, the nearly 500 mile bike ride across Iowa. I also enjoy hiking and each year take a solo trip to the Rocky Mountains. I have nearly completed the Superior Hiking trail. I also enjoy kayaking, reading, the Green Bay Packers and watching movies and series on Netflix.
I opened Seymour Law, LLC in 2010. Changes in technology and the practice of law have made a solo practice a much more viable option than in years past. My current office is the size of what used to be needed just for the law library at a larger firm! More importantly, the solo practice has allowed me to continue to bring affordable legal services to my clients.
I am a member of the State Bar of Wisconsin and the La Crosse Bar Association. I serve or have served on boards for the Parenting Place, La Crosse Public Library, Mississippi Valley Conservancy and the Downtown Neighborhood Association.
