As soon as she gets her money she switches on you. I wanted to fight my case and she broke me then made me loose all confidence in her. She had no intention of doing anything I wanted. biggest waste of 30,000$ ever. Don't waste your money on her. You can get better results with a lawyer that cost a fraction of the price.

While on a camping trip from my home in Michigan to Cahokia, I was involved in an accident. As a…read morevisitor, I had no idea how to proceed or what to do. After contacting Jessica, she agreed to manage my case through the court system and I did not have to appear personally. She concluded the case with a very fair and satisfactory outcome. I am very appreciative of her and assistant Ashley for their help, patience and guidance. I do not know what I would have done without them. I am thankful that there are attorneys like Jessica who are understanding and compassionate and willing to help and I am pleased to give her THE HIGHET POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION! Bruce H

I hired Sarah to represent me on a case in Jerseyville Il. only after I kept it continuing for over…read more2 years. Her prices were $7500 and if it went to trial $10,000. Cost aside service was horrible she didn't really do anything for me I basically paid her $7,500 to accept the same deal that the public defender already offered me and then before I even accepted the deal I was trying to have her negotiate a few points for me but she wouldn't stand her ground I guess is what it was something she then proceeded to tell me that I needed to hurry up and make up my mind she was tired of making the trip from her office all the way to the courthouse. And then after I accepted the deal and had to do some weekends but there were some clerical errors I would say on the courts behalf and I had questions and I needed her to address the court for me or call the assistant State's Attorney or whatever she basically told me about no she did tell me she's no longer on my case the case has been settled and that's it she's not my lawyer anymore but if I'm not mistaken I paid lawyer is to represent you until the case is dismissed closed or you've been found guilty you know what I mean like I don't understand just because I signed a piece of paper saying it that I'll be on two years probation my case wasn't over she's horrible at her job she doesn't have the nerve to stand up and fight for her clients because my case was illegal search and seizure wrongly accused then that was used against me to in their eyes be able to search my vehicle and then give me bogus charges and she she was willing she said to go to trial but of course I'd had to pay 2500 more dollars and that's not including the hourly rate after that so it was 10,000 just to go to trial and then it was attorney fees and filing fees and all that on top of it so you can see how someone that had a public defender for 2 years and continued the case couldn't afford an attorney really didn't have the money to really go to trial but let alone pay all them fees so you see how somebody can just basically get bullied into accepting the deal and just do not hire this lady stay away from me they're Law Firm

When I was going through a divorce, I had hired two previous attorney's that did nothing for me…read moreexcept take my money and achieved little to no results. I grew fed up with paying exorbitant legal fees only to have my two previous lawyers do nothing. I was in the market for another attorney and I started calling around to different family law firms in Edwardsville. I spoke to an attorney who couldn't take my case, but I was referred to Amanda. From the very start, Amanda was honest and up front about what could/ or couldn't happen. She was brutally honest with me about my case and totally prepared me for what happens during a child custody dispute. She was not only very adept at representing me in my child custody matter, she fought hard for the best interests of my child. Many lawyers, (or at least my previous two) had only worried about getting paid and seemed to drag things out just to cost me more money. Amanda didn't do that to me. She is a compassionate, kind person and a passionate legal representative that will advocate strenuously for you and your child's rights. She is excellent at what she does! I never once doubted her abilities nor did I at any point lose confidence in her. If you are looking for a family lawyer that will stand up for you and your child, she will do that and so much more. I can never thank her enough for her help, her efforts and hard work.
