Simply the Best

I am father of four, who couldn’t be happier with Sterling Law Offices. I have to tell you from the start, I have been where you are… putting in the time to research and find an attorney to improve my children’s and my quality of life. Naturally my second concern was cost, which I’m happy to say lead... me to Sterling Law Offices. Their fixed fee option shows their level of commitment to their clients, by not nickel-and-diming you to death, even when your case is extremely involved, as mine was. Although I am confident Sterling Law Offices has a team of very capable attorneys, my research lead to me request Attorney Ellen J Rhodeman, who I felt was the best for my situation. It was without a doubt the right choice. Ellen is extremely knowledgeable with many years of experience. The combination of Ellen’s impressive ability to perform in court and the high level of respect others involved have for her, not only puts you at ease, but is also a great advantage. From day one Ellen made me feel comfortable, as she was down to Earth, easy to talk to and as dedicated to my goals as I was. Her commitment to her clients is obvious in her immediate response to any concern and her honesty to you regarding expectations. Now being at the end of an extremely successful outcome, I can say with experience, that you are in the right place. I think attorneys tend to get a bad rap, which makes it difficult to make a choice, but honest and compassionate ones do exist. Thanks Ellen for improving our lives and thank you for all the time you put in. You're a great asset to Sterling Law Offices, and anyone who chooses you to improve their lives.

Excellent Attorney

She helped me get custody of my son and be able to move out of state with him. From beginning to end she was on top of my phone calls and emails. Always kept me up to date on all court requests and paperwork. I couldn't thank her enough for what she did.

Excellent Attorney

Ellen was excellent! My case was not an easy one to say the least! Ellen did all she could to get me the outcome I was seeking. And ultimately the outcome was everything I could have hoped for! She always kept me updated on the case and diligently answered all of my emails. I will most definitely onl...y go to her if I ever have an issue in the future!

Great representation!

Ellen did an overall fantastic job! She stayed in contact with me throughout the whole process. Which is difficult do to my line of work and work hours. She gave solid and accurate advise. Divorce is difficult as it is but hiring her firm made it go as smooth and painless as possible. I have referred... her to others and will absolutely continue to do so!

Great Attorney

Ellen is a great attorney. She represented me during my divorce and child support proceedings. Ellen was very experienced and knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable with her and her expertise. She is tough and fought for me and got me everything I deserved. I am grateful to her and it feels good... to say I am finally divorced and I had the best attorney by my side through it all, you can't ask for more.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Oct 13

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Whenever I have a question about a domestic relations matter, Ellen is the first person I consult. Illinois' laws have changed considerably over the past several years and I rely on Ellen to provide me with accurate information for my Clients. In those situations, where my Clients need an Attorney to handle a domestic relations matter, I consistently refer the Client to Ellen for representation. I think that Ellen is an exceptional young Attorney with knowledge and skills way beyond her years, and I would not hesitate to refer a Client to Ellen not only because of her knowledge and skills but because I know that she would be empathetic to their concerns and would be a zealous advocate for their rights. This is of particular importance to my Clients as they tend to be older and more fearful of attorneys and the legal system. I strongly endorse this Attorney."
