Wisconsin Divorce Solutions was founded by Attorney Erica Gittings in 2021 after she worked for more than a decade as a top litigator for one of the nation’s largest family law firms. In 2020, Erica was diagnosed with ovarian cancer which led to the business being transferred to Attorney Anne Scipior in 2024. Erica lost her battle with cancer on December 16, 2024. Erica and Anne were longtime colleagues and friends, and she is proud to be able to continue Erica’s mission through WDS.
Erica started WDS due to her concerns about the animosity, stress, and staggering costs that accompany divorce litigation. In 2020 she left litigation and decided to dedicate 100% of her practice to serving as a neutral mediator. Erica’s goal was to provide families with a more collaborative, efficient, and affordable alternative to traditional divorce. Anne is committed to continuing Erica's legacy.
A 2010 graduate of the University of Wisconsin Law School, Anne has worked exclusively in family law for the last 11 years. She is a partner at Schuster Family Law, LLC in addition to operating WDS. One of Anne’s greatest skills is her ability to see different perspectives and work creatively and efficiently to find mutually agreeable solutions. Anne’s calm and logical demeanor has helped hundreds of individuals going through a separation or divorce. She has extensive experience in financial matters and child-related disputes.
Anne resides in Madison with her husband, six-year-old son, and golden retriever.

Erica was fantastically well prepared!...Erica’s prep helped move things along quickly…She always knew what was going on. In the past I’ve worked with attorneys that have frustrated me with their lack of ability to recall the details of my case. This never happened with Erica. She always knew what was going on and I never had to remind her.
