Attorney Judith Stern

Attorney Judith Stern joined Wisconsin Judicare’s civil unit in 2006 as a staff attorney. Attorney Stern received her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside Kenosha, WI, and her Juris Doctorate from the University of Wisconsin Law School, Madison, WI. Prior to obtaining her law degree, Attorney Stern worked as a group home house parent for KYDS, Kenosha, WI; an employment counselor for the State of Wisconsin Job Service; and a juvenile probation social worker for Kenosha County, WI. During these years, Attorney Stern was a Founder, Board Member, and Chairperson of the Board for Women's Horizons, Kenosha, a battered women’s shelter. After obtaining her law degree, Attorney Stern served as Assistant Family Court Commissioner for three years in Kenosha, WI, and continued her work against domestic violence. Commissioner Stern was a member of the coordinated community response team against domestic violence, facilitated abuser's workshops, and gave educational presentations on domestic violence to civic groups. Commissioner Stern left public service to join Stern, Caviale, & Stern, Kenosha, WI as a lawyer in private practice. Here she maintained a family law practice, was managing partner of the business, and part time appeals magistrate for Kenosha County Department of Social Services Medical Appeals. Attorney Stern left private practice when appointed Family Court Commissioner for Walworth County. Commissioner Stern served fourteen years on the bench in Walworth County. During that time, she established the Parenting After Separation program and supervised a highly successful custody mediation program (with over a 70% success rate.) In addition, Commissioner Stern served two terms on the Wisconsin Supreme Court's Gender Equity Committee, served as a board member for Habitat for Humanity, and initiated a coordinated community response team to address truancy. Commissioner Stern also assisted Wisconsin Coalition Against Domestic Violence in preparing programs and developing training materials on domestic violence for court commissioners.
