Margaret Ann Zuleger

Margaret did an outstanding job representing me through my divorce. She explains in detail how the collaborative divorce process works and worked very close with me to ensure it was not a long drawn out process. Margaret always had my best interest in mind. I never once felt that she was running up t...he clock for her financial benefit.

I am broke after less than two years after finalizing my divorce thru Margaret Zuleger. My trust is gone. My company was signed over to my ex husband as part of the divorce. I received no income in 2015 or 2016 despite working in 2015 and 2016 for my company which due to Margaret's incompetenc...e he controlled. I paid capital gains tax on all stocks and bonds sold from my trust to pay for our divorce in 2016. I paid over $20,000 to Margaret after the divorce was finalized...... I pay and I pay and I pay and I now have no savings and have two credit card maxed out. He continued with his false narrative of me being addicted to drugs and alcohol despite my taking a tests, urine, blood, and hair. She spent so much time making professional connections at my expense without benefit to me. It has been 18 months since our divorce was finalized and I have no savings with my UNALLOCATED MAINTENANCE for my son and I set at less than 25% of his income(it was based on his estimate). Margaret allowed his attorney to write the entire divorce decree. She dropped the ball so many times and continued to believe that by not holding him accountable ( no deposition despite my having proof of his kick back checks) that he would do the right thing. She continued to compromise on my behalf (I lost out) believing he would do the right thing despite my repeated protest. ONLY GO WITH MARGARET IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE ALL OF YOUR SAVINGS, YOUR KIDS ARE NOT IMPORTANT, AND/OR YOU ENJOY CONSTANT FINANCIAL REMINDER OF HOW YOUR EX HAD THE BETTER LAWYER. Go with Margaret Zuleger if you want to give your ex a pass! She is the lawyer I wish the EX had.

I was so fortunate to find Margaret through a mediator who recommended her. I met with 2 other lawyers and did not find them as a lawyer who was focused on my best interests. She took the time to understand the facts of my case and what was important to me. Margaret gave solid advice based on Il...linois law. Divorce is not easy regardless of the circumstance. Margaret made me feel like I was her priority. She returned my many "stress" emails in a timely manner. Margaret came to court organized and well prepared. Margaret's quote for this divorce was within a few hundred dollars. I have friends who spent 10s (and 100's) of thousands on their divorce with terrible lawyers. For all you who want your lawyer working for you, for your best interests and not taking you for a ride, contact Margaret. I've recommended 3 people to Margaret. One is happily working with her on her high profile divorce. The other 2 are preparing to move forward. My best advice is to have a consultation with Margaret. She is not working out of a plush, costly building. So don't let her office deter your opinion. It's just her clients are more important than drawing you in on materialistic things. You won't be disappointed. I don't know if you can ask questions on this site, but if so, I would be more than happy to give you more insite on my exceptional experience with Margaret.
