Helps you have faith in the process

My divorce from my ex was acrimonious, lengthy and not without drama. Jessica kept me grounded in reality and was with me every step of the way. She was my advocate in and out of the courtroom, going the extra mile on numerous occasions, even preparing and filing an emergency petition on my behalf ov...er a holiday weekend. She earned my trust at a time when I had very little to give and validated my concerns when my ex was making crazy demands. Jessica has a firm grasp of family law and builds relationships to ultimately reach positive outcomes. I highly recommend her.

The Tiger You Need In Your Corner

Jessica was recommended to me when my wife filed for divorce and threatened to take full custody of my son. From our first meeting, she was able to describe the process and prepare me for the obstacles which were going to be thrown our way. She has done an incredible job representing me and helping... me get what I cherish most in life; time with my son. I feel so comfortable having Jessica in my corner, knowing she wont let anyone push her (or me) around. Jessica has done a wonderful job of dodging darts thrown by opposing counsel, as well as managing me as a client. If I have to get divorced again (and I sure hope I don't), Jessica would be my first and last phone call.

Greatest Show I’ve Ever Seen

My name is Adam Blair. I’m a single father and professional musician. I’ve toured the world,written national commercial spots,had songs in Billboard Charts ,opened for The President and I would/did trade every bit of that in to be with my son. Since he was pretty much born I have taken the most direc...t care of him than anyone,yet almost 2 years ago he was taken from me . To say I was devastated,lost or incapable of comprehension would all be massive understatements . I needed a champion to fight for my family. On the suggestion of a friend I called Jessica L Weiner. When I met with her she spoke my language as a single mom herself. She wasn’t taken back my appreance or my job,she just saw I was a good father. Her poise was that of a Star . She had an amazing charm to her that could be felt tables away. A few days later she walked into court and with in seconds owned the room. I felt like I was at concert ! She instantly connected with the judge and child rep. She followed it with quips and jibes. Then ended it with sincerity and endearing banter. I thought to myself “WHAT A SHOW!!” I KNEW in those moments I made the right choice for my son and I . Through the hardest period of my Jessica gave me assurance. Through heartbreak Jessica gave me hope. Through utter pain Jessica gave me knowledge to make tomorrow better . But best of all Jessica gave me my son back! Please take a moment to fully digest that statement because every day for the rest of my life I have to and then I have to know who made that happen. That warm feeling I get in my chest when I see my son smile is because of the efforts and passion of Jessica! Jessica I pray to god you read this because I’m so proud and honored to have watched you in your element and beyond grateful for the results ..... my son. The English language has failed me because the words I use cannot possible express my feelings so I’m left with merely “thank you”. Your biggest fan, Adam

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked closely with Jessica on a matter involving one of our mutual clients who was going through a divorce. I represented that client in a personal injury matter. Jessica handled the divorce case with the highest degree of professionalism. She knows all the applicable law and is up-to-date on current cases and issues being decided by courts throughout Illinois. Jessica is also a compassionate person who understands how to work with and comfort clients going through a difficult time. Jessica is a strong advocate for her clients. She is respected by the attorneys she works with (and against). I highly recommend Jessica Weiner."
