Daniel R. Freund
Of Counsel

Daniel R. Freund

From talking to many lawyers in Eau Claire (and I have talked to more than 5 lawyers about him) Dan is hands down the most respected lawyer in this field in the Chippewa Valley. – from an on-line client review

Eau Claire bankruptcy lawyer Daniel R. Freund has more than 30 years of experience developing and implementing smart strategies to help his clients achieve their goals in a cost-effective manner. Other attorneys call upon Mr. Freund as an advisor and consultant on particularly complex or unusual cases.

Now of counsel at Christianson & Freund, Attorney Freund has represented debtors, creditors, businesses, banks, credit unions, bankruptcy trustees, consumers, lenders, and farmers. He has appeared in Wisconsin and federal courts at both the trial and appeal level. In addition, Mr. Freund has also served as a state court receiver, Chapter 12 bankruptcy trustee, mediator, Chapter 128 trustee, and law clerk to a bankruptcy judge. This broad experience gives Attorney Freund a unique perspective from which to assist Christianson & Freund attorneys as they guide their clients through difficult times.
