Who or what are you most thankful for in your law practice? 🙏💘 instagr.am/p/DQ1uGCRDsfH/
Wisconsin residents lost over $7.3 million to scammers using cryptocurrency ATMs. More than half of the complaints came from people older than 50 years. Now, a new state law is changing the landscape for victims and the attorneys who represent them.
✨Story in the comments.👇
For attorneys working in consumer law, elder law, or financial fraud, 2025 Wisconsin Act 226 creating Wis. Stat. section 217.12 opens new avenues for client protection – and raises fresh questions about enforcement gaps.
"The daily transaction limit for each individual kiosk, the identification requirements, and then the step further of the refunds if law enforcement that is involved, is a huge game changer for many of my clients."
– Angel Rose Kwaterski, consumer law staff attorney, Legal Action of Wisconsin
Still, advocates note the 30-day reporting window may be too short. Victims caught in long-term relationship scams often don't recognize the fraud for months.

Don’t miss your opportunity to help shape a legal career. It could be your own. Join the Ready. Set. Practice Mentoring Program. Materials are due Oct. 31. 🔖Details in the comments.👇
Our mentoring program pairs new attorneys and law students with experienced lawyers for a year of structured, meaningful guidance. The program handles the matching, so you can focus on the relationship.
Whether you’re early in your career or a seasoned attorney looking to give back, the program fills a gap that hiring and informal mentoring often can’t.
As law student Jaycee Hass put it: “Programs like this help reinforce something that is incredibly important in the legal profession: we don’t have to figure everything out on our own.”
🙏 Thank you to Paige Juel, a managing attorney at Legal Action of Wisconsin, for contributing!
