My divorce experience was astoundingly hard, to say the least -- way more complex and difficult…read morethan I ever would have anticipated on every level. Without the expertise, professionalism, and integrity of Ms. Harvey and Ms. Ward, I'm certain that my outcome could have been far less favorable. I appreciated their transparency, sincerity, responsiveness and encouragement in helping me to establish realistic expectations and perspective, as well as coaching me through a process that was entirely foreign and distressing to me. They complement each other as a team, balancing confidence and efficiency with patience and empathy. At times, they stopped me from making foolish mistakes. Surely, step by step, they gained and kept my trust -- even through the most unsettling obstacles and curve balls -- by consistently demonstrating confidence, skill and proficiency in navigating every challenge through the process. Of course, quality legal services are expensive, which is an added stressor on top of numerous additional ways in which a divorce disrupts your life. They were conscious and respectful of this impact in important ways. I respect that family law is a profession where it can be particularly challenging to strike a balance between seeing your customer as both a "person" and a "client". Overall, they accomplish this impressively, with only one or two times (in 16 months) when I would have liked to have seen a slight adjustment in this balance. My divorce has been final one year today, and I am grateful. I remember how unsettling the task of choosing a lawyer was -- especially regarding matters so deeply personal and significant. I couldn't allow myself to continue reflecting and moving forward without finally making time to share my experience.

Clearly there is a pattern with this law firm as evident from their other reviewers and my review…read morewill only be reinforcing it. After 18 months of engaging with this firm from late 2022 to 2024, I finally decided to part ways and switch attorneys (who saw me through my divorce) and below are reasons why. 1. When I first got started with this process, I was naive, uneducated and anxious. You would think that your attorney would help educate you, and make you feel at ease. Instead, firm's namesake constantly instilled fear and threatened me with adverse outcomes even when there was no basis for it. I know better now! It's like her way of covering for her own inadequacies and her way or the highway. FWIW, I got the custody that I wanted and deserved. 2. You will be billed A LOT for research without being given any estimates and the worst part, is it wouldn't help improve your outcome one bit. Happy to provide examples for anyone that wants. 3. Your case will be assigned to a very expensive and inexperienced associate who has no decision making or strategy making authority but in fact you will be charged every time for her to get direction from the firms owner/partner. Totally convoluted process. 4. Where other law firms actively utilize paralegals or legal assistants for administrative items, the Associate will do all that at a much higher billable rate. 4. The firm's partner will tell you how she has 20+ years of experience but will have petitions thrown out by the judge for being deficient or inaccurate including petitions for rules that I was billed a $900 for. They will even fail to share with you motions filed by OC months after being filed with the court. Does this constitute malpractice? 5. Even after repeatedly bringing up various concerns, they fell to a deaf ear and went ignored while I kept getting billed for things that don't matter. Eventually that led me to firing them. I am sure she will try to discredit this review like she does with all her other 1 star reviews but I am prepared to share specific examples if needed to stand by my review with them or with anyone reading this review. There is a reason for their overall 2.9 stars while others have 4-5 stars. If in doubt, you can also read reviews on Avo.

I cannot recommend Zachary Hunsinger highly enough. After a frustrating year where my case saw no…read moreprogress, finding Zach was a complete game-changer. It is no surprise that he is an award-winning attorney and so highly spoken of within the legal community; his work absolutely reflects his stellar reputation. From the very beginning, Zach was the epitome of professionalism. He is honest, ethical, transparent, and fair--qualities that are incredibly important when you're navigating a difficult legal situation. He works tirelessly for his clients, and his dedication is evident in the results he achieves. In just six months, Zach was able to accomplish what my previous counsel couldn't get done in over a year. I am beyond happy that I hired him as my attorney. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner. If you are looking for an elite lawyer who is effective, hardworking, and operates with the utmost integrity, you have found him in Zachary Hunsinger. I look forward to working with him again on any non-family-related civil matters in the future. His paralegal Randy is also stellar. She is great to work with, compassionate, and responsive. It was a pleasure having this firm in my corner throughout the entire process.

R Connor, and specifically Bob Heist, took advantage of this situation. He would go for no brainer motions and claim massive victories, but would completely ignore and refuse our demands.

He quickly became hostile and changed his tune, holding over our previous attorneys over our head (who we also terminated because they refused to cooperate with motions and actions we deemed necessary).

I run a law firm. If you want clear and organized service as to a process service agency, I have…read moreto say look elsewhere. There are multiple arms as to this agency that you have to deal with just to get a document served, as to the actual process server, the "intake" person taking the requests, and separate billing department. The service is also not on par; when they tried to serve a simple 5-day notice to multiple tenants at a unit, they did not serve a party I listed because their process server blindly took the word of the tenant that such separate co-tenant was deceased (rather than, at the time of the representation, confirming with me whether I wanted them to trust the assertion of the tenant). Their accounting, in particularly, is overly complicated. They use an internal payment platform that is extremely confusing. You also get billing long after the service is performed, which makes it difficult to pinpoint the cost for your client. I have been attempting to work with them to give them a chance, but even after I had to leave them and, in good-faith, am attempting to cover any outstanding balances, the invoices I am just receiving are still confusing. Overall very frustrating.

*Disclaimer: Cole Sadkin represented the opposing party in my case. I won my case,…read moreself-represented, but I believe people looking for counsel should have as much information as possible.* *Also, due to the nature of the case, I proceeded as Jane Doe. Trial concluded on March 18, 2026.* Attorneys who appeared on this case through Cole Sadkin: Mason Cole, Michael Krzywicki, James Cook, and Judith Kott Cole Sadkin represented the opposing party in my civil case for sexual assault and battery in Cook County Circuit Court. I was a pro se litigant who, despite the tactics and conduct I experienced throughout litigation, ultimately obtained a six-figure jury verdict in my favor. This review is a warning about the professionalism and litigation conduct I personally observed from this firm. Over the course of litigation, multiple attorneys cycled in and out of the case. The handling of the matter often felt disorganized, hostile, and unnecessarily aggressive - far beyond zealous advocacy. One of the most disturbing moments involved attorney Judith Kott's characterization of my deposition testimony. During my deposition, counsel specifically asked whether I was "going in and out of consciousness" because I was falling asleep. I answered: "No. It is because he was strangling me." Despite that clear testimony, Ms. Kott later argued to the Court that I had testified I was going in and out of consciousness because I had been drinking heavily. She used that mischaracterization to argue that my memory was unreliable due to alcohol consumption. That was not my testimony, and the transcript reflects that in black and white. Ms. Kott also repeatedly insinuated that I must have had "secret counsel" assisting me behind the scenes because, apparently, the idea that a pro se litigant could effectively litigate a case against experienced attorneys was not something she was prepared to accept. The reality is that I did my own work, learned the law, prepared my own filings, and tried my own case myself. As litigation became increasingly hostile, attorney James Cook began including my abuser directly on communications with me. I ultimately had to tell him myself that the practice was inappropriate and eventually felt the need to bring the issue to the Court's attention. The firm also objected to nearly every one of my motions in limine that were ultimately granted by the Court, including motions barring attempts to use prior sexual encounters as evidence of consent to the assault at issue, and motions barring a contributory negligence defense, implying that a victim has some duty to proactively prevent another person from physically or sexually assaulting them. At another point, an attorney from the firm sent a lengthy argumentative email directly to the judge attempting to litigate issues outside proper procedure, prompting the Court to remind counsel that the parties were not to litigate through email communications. I was genuinely astounded by the level of unprofessionalism I experienced from this firm. Even setting aside my concerns about litigation conduct, I would not hire this firm based on competence alone. Again, this is not sour grapes from a losing party. I won. This review exists because people deserve to know what kind of conduct they may encounter when dealing with this firm.
