Ms. Buchinger graduated, magna cum laude, from the University of Wisconsin, Platteville in 1986, and obtained her law degree, with honors, from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1989.

Since graduating from law school, Ms. Buchinger worked in a small law firm in Sheboygan for five years, specializing in Family Law, Bankruptcy and Small Business law. In 1993, Ms. Buchinger became the Director of the Calumet County Child Support Agency in Chilton, Wisconsin. She left in 1997 to become the Court Commissioner for Manitowoc County, returning to Calumet County as Corporation Counsel and Child Support Director in 1998. She opened her practice in August of 2005, serving the Fox River Valley in Family law, Small Business law, and Zoning law.

Ms. Buchinger is a member of the Calumet County Bar Association, the Wisconsin State Bar Association, a member of the Kaukauna Catholic School System Board, past member of Family Services Board of Directors, Big Brothers/Big Sisters, and the Mead Public Library Board of Directors.

Ms. Buchinger is a strong proponent of collaborative divorce, believing that both parties are much better off if they are involved in setting the terms of their new relationship. However, if litigation is needed, Ms. Buchinger has more than 15 years of courtroom experience and will aggressively represent her client's and the children's rights.
