My ex husband filed a Petition…read moreagainst me under the Hague Convention on Civil Aspects of International Child abduction asking to return our two sons to Lithuania. Seeking for the legal representation, I was advised by the U.S. Department of State to contact lawyer Erin E. Masters. I was so lucky to have the team of the best lawyers Erin E. Masters and Anthony G. Joseph representing me in this difficult trial. They represented with the highest standards of law, but also provided support and empathy through the process. The communication was fantastic, always answered every question, explained every situation and possible outcome. As it was a very fast track case, Erin and Anthony worked hard including weekends to prepare everything for the hearing. There was only one hearing and the Decision was totally in my favor. All my family, especially the kids, are very grateful! It is also fair to mention that the legal expenses for the amount of services provided was very very reasonable. Taking in mind my difficult financial situation, Erin even agreed to provide the service for the reduced fee. I will gladly recommend Erin Masters and Anthony Joseph to represent any of my friends and family in need of an excellent and highly professional family attorney.

I hired Sima to work on my closing back in 2006. Through a number of stumbles, including my first…read morecondo falling through, Sima was a rock. A strong guide, a no nonsense lawyer who would tell you the truth even if it isn't what you wanted to hear. She managed to calm me down through a number of unexpected issues. My closing in June 2007 went relatively smoothly. A 5-star experience, and I recommended her to everyone I knew who was buying in Chicago. However 18 months after my closing I needed a copy of my title commitment to settle a situation with my association. I made an initial request in early December 2008, and she assured me she would get me what I needed within days. It's now 2 full months later and she stopped responding to emails and has completely blown me off. For someone who prides herself on professionalism, this was a total garbage move that has left me and my association hanging. I wasn't expecting something for nothing, but nothing is certainly what I got. For the horrendous service these past 2 months, I've knocked her down to a single star. It's a shame, because I respected her so much and now, I am left baffled by her behavior.

Michael and his team made getting hit by a car a lot less painful…read more I'm a bike commuter. Every day I leave the house, I hope for a good one. I can only be so careful...the rest is up to everyone else. Unfortunately, you can't always count on others to do what's right. I was involved in a bike/car accident, fully the fault of the driver, and fortunately, got away relatively unscathed. In a case like that, I could have taken the $500 cash the driver offered me, but I'm smarter than that. I went to (http://www.illinoisbicyclelaw.com/) and talked to Michael. Joe, one of the lawyers I worked with told me everything I needed to obtain, and even went with me to my court date to make sure I knew what I was doing. I got my bike paid for, all the bills paid for, and even "pain and suffering." Let's just say, it was more than a measly $500. If you get hit by a car, you NEED a lawyer, even if you're relatively okay. You're entitled to be reimbursed for the incident, and too many people assume they aren't. While Keating deals with all kinds of personal injury cases, these guys will educate you on bike law, take the time to work with you, and treat you like a friend. They also happen to be very supportive of the Chicago cycling community. Hands down, my #1 recommendation.

Ms.Larimer was assigned to my high conflict custody case approximately 2019-2021. During this time,…read moreI found her behavior to be incredibly unprofessional, strange and was only validated in my worry when she openly used an ableist slur in my home-while not masking appropriately to boot. I also found Ms.Larimer to be biased by her own life experiences and quite egotistical about her profession and privilege, talking about herself and her experiences constantly. She holds a lot of power in the most heart wrenching and significant moments of a parent's life but does not appreciate the weight of it, particularly if you are different from her. She needs intensive training in how to be a trauma-informed and non-biased person, especially in her work. Otherwise she is no different from any other attorney who does not care and just wants $$$. Her recommendations have had terrible repercussions for my child that continue to this very day. On top of everything, she is so expensive it becomes unfeasible to actually work through issues because she's charges you so much for absolutely everything. I would NOT recommend Ms.Larimer for anything unfortunately.

When I became suspicious she was giving me false information I reached out other places like legal hotlines to fact check her and on multiple occasions the facts they provided me were completely contrary to the information we were receiving from Sheryl. She provided false information on legal documents presented to the court. She seemed hell bent on doing as minimal work on our case as possible. I 100 PERCENT DO NOT ENDORSE THIS TERRIBLE EXAMPLE OF A LAWYER TO ANYONE! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON HER. We finally saw the light and fired her mid case and couldn't be any happier. Negligent, incompetent, insensitive and untrustworthy are the words that I say are synonymous with Sheryl B Dworkin. Hire her at your own risk!
