Excellence in Elder Law

I have known Melissa Wick for many years and have referred many clients to her. She is knowledgeable, responsible and compassionate. She is an expert in estate planning as well as Medicaid and veterans benefits so can help families understand how they can coordinate these benefits. So no matter th...e size of the estate she can help a family with their needs. She has done a lot for the seniors in Lake and McHenry county. I would not hesitate to refer her to my friends and family. She is an awesome resource!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
