Rebecca L. Zeilenga

I first met Becky while trying to discover what rights I had as a grandmother. Within a few months I gained guardianship of my grandson and 6 weeks ago we finalized his adoption. This was an extremely stressful time for our family because during the process we experienced the loss of my son along wit...h much opposition and drama from bio-mom and her family. Becky met every challenge with empathy, enthusiasm and her knowledge of the law. She explained each process to us. I felt that her entire firm wanted this as much as we did. Becky was very thorough when we filed for adoption and it went through smoothly. It is evident how much Becky loves her profession and how knowledgeable she is about the law. Thank you Becky!

Becky Zeilenga is a knowledgeable and effective advocate. She did a phenomenal job with my divorce case. My situation was complicated because my son and I are located in New York while my ex-husband lives in Chicago. I had to interview attorneys on the phone in order to find the right match, and righ...t from the outset, Becky had a complete handle of the situation, answering every detailed question I had with ease. She immediately exhibited knowledge and experience, and her rate was reasonable too. From the outset, Becky gave excellent advice about how to proceed with the case, suggesting that we proceed with child-related issues in New York and proceed with the rest of the issues in Chicago. She corresponded with the opposing counsel to expediently finalize this issue. Later, when thornier issues were raised (with respect to finances and money my ex-spouse owed me), Becky informed me of what was feasible and what was not and firmly advocated on my behalf in order to make sure I got what I deserved under the law. The judge ultimately sided with her. As a law student, I also have to say that I was very impressed with the quality and research of Becky's arguments and memos--airtight arguments. Lastly, I also wanted to mention that Becky went out of her way to make sure the case did not drag on for longer than it had to, and I really appreciate that. Her knowledge, forceful advocacy, and her consideration of her client's needs definitely made this an unconditionally positive experience for me. I hope to remember this experience as a practicing attorney in the future. :)

Becky is an amazing attorney who is very knowledgeable and personable. She helped us with an adoption and made the process seamless for us. Becky was always available to answer any questions we had and to help us through any issues that came up. Her infinite patience and willingness to help is gre...atly appreciated. I highly recommend Becky!
