    In the rocky road of transacting real estate, Rick is the guy that can smooth the path and get the deal done.

    I'm very reluctant too write reviews. But this review I had too write. Let me start by saying I had…read morecalled at least 6 other attorney's before retaining Attorney Sotavia Muhammad. My case was a little different, but usually that's why you end up in court in the first place right?? The six other attorney's I spoke with talked more about money than they talked about my case and how they could help me. This was different with Attorney Muhammad, she made sure she could help me first and then talked about what it would cost too help me. Even in that she was more reasonable then the other Attorney's I had spoken with.To give you a little bit of my circumstance. I was divorce and my ex-husband had recently retired and according to out divorce decree . I was entitled to a percentage of his pension, but because my previous divorce attorney didn't filed the proper paper work the pension fund was denying me payment. I also discovered that the wrong information was listed on the document as well. Everything that could go wrong with me receiving any money was happening. This was going too be a long shot to say the least. We even had other Corporate Attorney's from the pension fund telling Ms.Muhammad she would never prevail. She didn't let that stop her she went too work. She let me know every step of the way from beginning too end what too be prepared for. She's very personable and I love that about her. I would get a call at night,if she needed too talk to me,in the morning,on the weekend. My point is she's not a Monday through Friday 9-5 email only type of Attorney. My case was long just like this review but in the end it was worth it. My attorney went up against a well known Attorney and firm who pull out every stop too win. The judge was extremely hard but Attorney Muhammad was able too do her magic and give the judge enough to sway him. She was a God send for me please allow her to handle any Family Law issue you may have. Let her put that (W) win On your case. Thank you Attorney Sotavia Muhammad

    I contacted Sotavia Muhammad about a year ago regarding a child support and custody situation with…read moremy son's father. I found her on facebook and liked the fact that she was located in the suburbs of Chicago and not the busy downtown area. She was willing to work around my busy schedule to set up our initial conversation and meeting. As a single working mother, I appreciated that. From our first conversation I could tell she was very knowledgeable when dealing with child support and custody agreements. She took ample time listening to my concerns and telling me what options I had if I retained her services. I was definitely impressed. After agreeing to use her services, she quickly began to work on my case. I was glad that I knew in advance what to expect in court, since I had never been involved with the courts regarding an issue such as this. I never went to court feeling apprehensive or nervous because I was confident in her abilities. Although my son's father tried to duck and dodge the court systems, he was definitely unable to do the same when I had Ms. Muhammad representing me. When I received my first bill, I was surprised at how affordable she was. I am very glad that I hired Ms. Muhammad for representation. I have learned first hand how much having a knowledgeable, efficient lawyer, can definitely work in your favor and how not having one can definitely cost you time and money in the long run. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs her services: mothers, fathers, etc. You will not be disappointed.

    We are extremely disappointed with the representation we received from this law office. My…read moresignificant other is currently going through a difficult divorce and custody case. At first, everything seemed to be going smoothly with Peter assigned to the case. However, once things started to intensify, we were quickly made to feel like an afterthought. Despite being in a financially tight position, we trusted this firm--my S/O used his tax return and borrowed money from me to hire representation because the other party was constantly filing motions and avoiding mediation. When it came time for the temporary support hearing, Peter was unavailable due to a family emergency, and the attorney who filled in was completely unprepared. They failed to accurately present my S/O's income, failed to explain his parenting time, and failed to reference any of the documentation already submitted to the firm. Even worse, during that same hearing, we were advised to get a guardian ad litem and were then encouraged to drop the firm altogether in order to receive whatever was left of our retainer. The retainer was $5,000. In the end, they showed up to court twice, filed zero motions, and used every dollar--leaving us with no refund, no strategy, and a burdensome temporary support order to handle alone. We trusted them in good faith and ended up worse off than if we had filed everything ourselves with the help of the circuit clerk. This firm didn't just fail us--they left us more vulnerable than when we started.

    I retained Mr. Kezy $4k and less than 90 days he asked for additional fees. Upon review of my…read morestatement there were many questions, such as why I was billed $300 for a phone call to the opposing counsel, along with many other really high fees? Mr. Kezy responded that his office would set up a meeting to discuss the statement and he would adjust any incorrect charges. That call nor meeting ever happened. I explained to Mr. Kezy that I can't pay him 4k every ninety days, he then filled a motion to withdraw from my case. This has been Mark Kezy's history based on his Yelp Reviews. He will withdraw from representing his clients when they ask for guidance, communication, and his billing practices. I caution future clients to please read his Yelp and Avvvo Reviews, because I decided to replace my previous attorney with Mark Kezy based on the Google Reviews. This was a detrimental mistake

    Mr Kezy doesn't even deserve a one star! Put down a $2500 retainer and that was gone on the first…read morebilling cycle, along with another $3500.00. I pointed out where we were charged twice for the same meeting, charged for copies, scans, and things that I tried to provide him in the very first meeting with him (and he said he didn't need them). As soon as I pointed these duplicate charges, pointed out that it didn't take 2 hours to type up a motion and file it, he immediately withdrew. We were basically charged $5000. for 1 zoom meeting and 1 court appearance. I hope you are rich if you plan to hire Mr Kezy. ***UPDATE*** Mr. Kezy tried to withdraw from our case, however the judge didn't let him, so Mr Kezy showed up to court and did is best to NOT represent us and my fiance is now being held in contempt of court for Mr Kezy's lack of representation even thought I handed him physical PROOF of everything. Not sure how a man is supposed to pay $4000 a month in child support when he is disabled and only makes $1600 per month. Very unethical attorney, it's all about the money for him and not his clients.

    I hired Jeanine as a GAL for a custody case because my lawyers suggested her and told me the case…read morewould go much smoother having someone to adequately represent my daughters best interest. I sat down with her and explained the situation, gave her a retainer, and it then took over 3 months after being appointed GAL to have a private face to face conversation with her client, my daughter, and I had to ask for that to happen. She did no questioning or investigation into outside and neutral factors of my daughters life, such as school or doctors. Jeannine simply repeated what my daughters desires which were said in the presence of the opposing parent, or over the phone with her in the presence of the opposing parent. Rather than do her job and make a recommendation to the court in the child's best interest, she only repeated what she heard, which takes no work, what my daughter wanted in the presence of the other parent and never spoke to me again, but spoke to the opposing parent a number of times. I believe she was biased towards the other parent and the multiple charges for talking to the other parent and not me enforces my beliefs, unfortunately my daughter now has to deal with the problems resulting from Jeannine's poor work, especially waiting so long to talk to her minor client 1 on 1 allowing ample time for her to be manipulated by either parent. I would never recommend her to anyone.

I go back to court constantly to get post decree matters resolved because of a poorly written marital settlement agreement. Do your research before getting divorced and if you start to not like how things are going in court..... get a second opinion. They are a very expensive firm and in retrospect I could have just given everything away myself and saved a ton of money.
