I sincerely hope, even though it's highly unlikely, that change happens for any new client looking to enter in an engagement. For months, the highly incompetent attorney provided me with borderline ethically unsound advice. Luckily a mediator (god bless his/her soul) provided me a nudge and had me push back at unsound counsel provided by this attorney. After finally seeing the light, I engaged a partner and it was then I realized that the incompetence permeated outside of this attorney to his/her managers. Please don't fall prey to the active social media and seemingly client centric introductory meeting. Run! Stay far away from this firm!

Angel is quite possibly the worst GAL. Our case finished last year but during that time I was…read morefighting stage 3 breast cancer and she is the least sympathetic person I have ever met. She was paid thousands over a 2 year span and I had only spoken to her one time throughout the entire case. In the initial consult she outlines the steps she will take to conduct her review of the situation...she never did any of it. I'm now left to coparent with someone who refuses to coparent with me nor do they make the best decisions for our now 3 year old daughter. If a GAL is a must, I recommend amicably agreeing on one with the other parent or you might get stuck with someone like Angel. Once they are appointed guardian, it is very hard to have them removed.

If I have a choice to give negative stars, I would definitely do that. I never worked with the…read moreother lawyers in the firm so I can not speak for them. I only worked with Alexander Sendlak who is absolutely terrible. I hired him in April 2025, since he got my case, he has not done anything other than transfer emails and response between me and the opposing lawyer. I did all the negotiation with apposing party myself the entire time, all he said from the very beginning is that "This is a good deal, sign it". never even made any effort to take a look at my case or even educate me on anything at all. what is worse is that he clearly stated that .3 hours is the minimum for the first task, after that minimum is .1, but guess what he charged me .3 hour on every single email and text messages he sent to me or anyone in the case. if you need a divorce lawyer, trust me that you have to find someone else if you don't want to hire someone just to bill you without doing anything. contact me if you have any question about this lawyer.

I retained attorney Alison Morales to assist me in a housing dispute. This habitability issue had…read morebeen plaguing my life for nearly 7 months when Ms. Morales took my case. In just two weeks she was able to review my paperwork, communicate with the lessor of the premise, and release me from my obligations to the uninhabitable premise. Ms. Morales negotiated with the other party numerous times in the course of these weeks, making me feel like I was her top priority. I expected to pay thousands out of pocket to escape the lease. Thanks to Ms. Morales's hard work, I was released from my obligations without having to pay another penny to the lessor. Ms. Morales called me to discuss every step of this process and answered every one of my calls, even after hours. I cannot say enough about how helpful she was for me. Attorney Alison Morales is a top-grade attorney and legal mind. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

I have hesitated posting a review but having seen others with similar circumstances, I wanted to…read morepost my experiences. Having read the responses to negative reviews, I also understand my viewpoint is only to serve others seeking representation and any response will be in regards to the firm wanting to do better, not speak of details within the case, or that reading this is heart breaking. I retained this firm for an Illinois high net worth, complex divorce involving significant marital assets including 2 businesses, financial irregularities, and safety concerns. My experience with the representation was deeply disappointing, and I believe it is important to share my perspective so others can make informed decisions. In my case, I was assigned Ross Schreiter who is no longer with the firm. During my time as a client, several issues significantly affected the outcome of my case: - Delays in critical filings: Key discovery deadlines passed without action, even as I would request we hold firm to the deadlines, and I later discovered that my discovery materials were not sent to the opposing party for approximately three months after delivery to the firm (within the deadline). - Lack of timely financial investigation: I uncovered (from the minimal pieces of documentation actually received) substantial financial discrepancies and missing records, yet no subpoenas for the material were issued post the 201(k), nor was a motion to maintain the status quo. The status quo was submitted to the court, and died with no follow through - an element I later saw first hand financially destroyed the estate. Protecting marital assets had no urgency. - Long periods without communication: I experienced extended gaps--sometimes weeks--without updates, even during pivotal stages of the case. In one case as things were moving fast I was without any communication for a month. - Missed court event, Excessive Extensions: A pre-trial conference was missed, and multiple extensions filed, which further contributed to delays. - Insufficient use of documentation I provided: I supplied detailed financial analyses I performed myself with direct evidence of irregularities, but these materials were not incorporated into motions or court strategy in a way that meaningfully advanced my position. - Pushback against inaccurate claims: Opposing counsel made several repeated false income claims, inflating my salary over the years with no evidence in order to position her client into a favorable position to receive maintenance and support. These claims were 4-6x reality. The claims were not refuted with factual evidence by my representation but rather allowed to remain and set the narrative with the court. - Transition issues: When my attorney left the firm, I was notified after 2 weeks and the handoff of my case was incomplete. My new counsel after leaving the firm noted missing components of my file. Non-response from Ross was leveraged against me by opposing counsel effectively. - I was not silent and raised the issues on several occasions. The responses received included statements such as, "You just don't understand how the law works" When explaining how I worked hard to live a good life, just to set an example for my kids, and this process was destroying that example, the response was: "well, just think of the example you can set when you build it all up again" Not to go into the full details, but the representation received from this firm took a person who had worked hard for everything, tried to be a good example for his kids, and tried to speak the truth and turned him into someone jaded, angry, with a loss of all trust in the legal system. I do not believe firms look out for a client's best interests. Failures were met with excuses. As a result of these cumulative issues, my case progressed without the financial clarity or asset protection that were available had timely legal steps been taken. I severed ties to the firm and the settlement was shaped by false claims of income and the absence of key financial information, and it has had lasting and devastating consequences for my family and personal financial stability and long-term security. I am sharing this review not to assign motives or make personal attacks, but to describe the service I received and the impact it had on my life. I encourage anyone considering representation in a complex or high-conflict divorce to ask detailed questions about discovery strategy, communication practices, asset-protection procedures, and transition planning within the firm. As I now try to rebuild my life, I have had my first threat of jail due to unpaid fees ongoing from this firm. I balance month to month debts of paying this firm, opposing counsel, maintenance, ordered obligations, all while making sure my kids have food. Frustrating and disappointment is not enough to explain my thoughts of this firm.
