About Conner
Conner Helvig earned his Juris Doctor from Marquette University Law School in 2020 after completing his legal studies beginning in 2017. He arrived at law school after a period of undergraduate study and entered a rigorous curriculum that emphasized both doctrinal courses and practical skills training. Marquette provided courtroom clinics and externship opportunities that shaped his early approach to client work and legal writing.
After graduating in 2020, Helvig moved into practice in Wisconsin. He is licensed to practice in the state and has maintained active membership in professional associations since joining the bar. Early in his career he handled a range of matters that gave him exposure to court procedures, pleadings, and client counseling. Those first years established a pattern of steady casework and ongoing learning.
Helvig joined Van Severen Law Office, S.C., a firm based in Wisconsin. At the firm he has worked on matters on behalf of individuals and small businesses. Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparing cases and attentive during client interviews. He has experience drafting court filings and attending hearings in state courts.
Collegial in the office, Helvig also contributes to internal case strategy discussions. He reads widely in relevant statutes and recent opinions to keep current on legal developments that affect his clients. He participates in professional programming and continuing education, maintaining active memberships in bar or civic groups while building his practice.
Clients who have worked with him note his clear explanations and steady presence during the legal process. He tends to break complex legal concepts into plain language, so people can make informed choices. In court, he presents arguments carefully and relies on thorough preparation rather than theatrical flourishes.
Outside the office, he remains connected to the Wisconsin legal community. He attends events and programs that support professional growth. Those activities feed back into his day-to-day work, helping him adapt to new rules and procedural changes.
As of 2026, Helvig continues to practice with Van Severen Law Office, S.C. He handles client matters in Wisconsin and focuses his practice on state law issues at the firm.
