Sarah Sevcech

Mrs. Sevcech came ready to fight for me in court. She understood my case and she understood the environment in which we were going to be enduring. She restored my faith in family law attorneys, in that she sought to fully understand my case circumstances in alimony and then worked on preparing me ...for my case. I spent two years going through a divorce and my previous attorney did none of the things she helped me work through. She was completely impressive and shot straight with me. She found my weaknesses and worked with me to make me stronger in the eyes of the court and case. On the day of court, and as a true professional, Ms. Sevcech went to work and between her and the Judge handled the hearing as fair and caring practitioners of the law. She has restored my faith and willingness to work with attorneys should the need ever arise. She has set the bar and continues to rise above it. Thank you ma'am. - Peter Nunn

I hired Sarah to represent me in a custody modification. Going through any type of litigation naturally brings anxiety, but from the very beginning, Sarah and her paralegal Gina always made me feel comfortable and important. I am sure Sarah has many other clients due to her reputation and success, bu...t she always made me feel like a priority. She was attentive and never made me feel bad for asking questions. She took the time to explain every part of the process. I could not be happier with the outcome of my case. If you are looking for an attorney that treats you like family rather than just a file number, look no further. If you are looking for an attorney that will go the extra mile, look no further. Sarah is the only attorney I will ever trust to handle my family law needs.

I was facing a DUI charge and was very scared. I had never been arrested before and had no idea where to begin. Sarah came highly recommended by another attorney and her fees were very affordable. From the moment I spoke to her, I felt at ease. She had a plan of action and as difficult as it was, I t...rusted her. We decided to take my case to a jury trial after looking at all my options. I was blown away watching Sarah advocate for me in court. She captivated the jury and after a long two days, the jury returned a NOT GUILTY verdict. I cannot begin to explain how thankful I am for Sarah. She is simply the best and she gave me my life back.

Sarah has been great to work with. She has always answered any concerns or questions that I have had in a very prompt and professional manner. Her advice is top notch, and she has always been very honest and open about expectations for the outcome of court. As a father fighting for custody of my ch...ildren, I was very glad to find a lawyer that wasn't trying to promise me the world just in order to make a profit off my situation. Her fees have been very reasonable, and she's been very honest about the hours she's spent working on my case. I could not be any more pleased with her services or the outcome of my situation. It's not easy to find a lawyer who truly cares about their clients, and will work so diligently and passionately as Ms Illg has handled my case. I'd highly recommend her to anyone needing family law counsel, or any other counsel within her diverse range of study.

I was blindsided with a nightmare situation and I had no idea what to do or where to turn. I decided to call the firm after a positive experience with another attorney there a few years earlier to see if they did family law. My call was then returned by a fallen angel. From the first conversation Sa...rah listened to my side and I could tell she would go to war for me. She has every quality you want not just in a lawyer but a person and it's only amplified when she is doing her job. There was some urgency to my case. Literally the day we spoke she was exchanging texts with me that night. She was already working on my case and had drafted a first draft of our motion while also having the patience to be there for my questions and concerns. And I had a lot. She genuinely made me feel like my case and fighting for me was the most important thing she had going on. It was the hardest situation I've ever faced, staring at a final judgement saying I had zero rights with the 2 little guys that mean the most in this world. And having to get on a plane to go to work in less than a week. Sarah had a motion filed immediately and a hearing within a week (which seems kind of unheard of). As an imperfect being and not knowing exactly what I was up against I sort of bombarded her with every bad thing I have ever done and sensitive details of a marriage that didn't work. I never felt looked down on, I never felt I couldn't talk to her about something. She calmly told me how we would handle it and built her defense. I can't stress enough how important that is. Fortunately I've never been in any family law situation before but I can imagine it all can get kind of ugly just because of the circumstances. It feels like there is nothing more sacred and important than becoming a parent to someone. To not be judged, to have someone that understands, it means the world. Of course there is a happy ending too. I went from 8 hours supervised visitation a month to joint custody and all the time I asked for with my kids. Sarah was nimble enough to spot an opening in the hearing and brought it all together perfectly when I didn't even think a settlement and ammendment was a possibility. Had it been left to the judge I have no doubt we would have won but there would have been more hearings, more back and forth, more ugliness. But it ended with Sarah, my ex wife and I sitting at a table agreeing to the terms I was seeking and leaving it in a place where we can actually co-parent when the dust settles. I don't know what else to say. I'm not a person who writes reviews but I feel strongly about the person and lawyer Sarah is. Sarah Illg is a light in a dark place. She's trustworthy, patient, tenacious, passionate and strong. I will forever be grateful to her for it.
