Last year we recognized Maureen L. O'Leary Guth with our annual Herbert J. Mueller Outstanding Professional Adviser of the Year. And the accolades for her have not stopped! This year alone, she was named to the Wisconsin Law Journal's PowerList of Estate Planning Attorneys and was named a Leader in Law by BizTimes Media. Her firm was named a Best Places to Work winner by the Milwaukee Business Journal and a Best Women-Led Law Firm. Maureen also was named a Women who Leads by the Wisconsin Law Journal and a Legal All Star in the Women in the Law category. We're so happy to see someone like Maureen - who is so dedicated to her clients and her community - receive this type of recognition for her work!

We believe honoring the legacy of Beechie Brooks is incredibly important for the impact that he had on development in Milwaukee. We are happy to support this project in Halyard Park, which is one of the neighborhoods surrounding our new office at ThriveOn King.
Beechie O. Brooks developed Milwaukee's Halyard Park subdivision. The neighborhood is raising money for a statue in his honor.
