Highly recommended

I walked away from my seemingly never-ending custody-case feeling like every-single-concern I had in the interest of my child was listened to, addressed, and handled. I was much more triumphant than many others I had spoken to about their custody-cases, and the peace of mind I feel knowing that ever...y-possible-thing we could legally do was covered. She treats each case with genuine determination. I appreciated that she stood up for me when I was in over my head and being taken advantage of by the opposing side. Frequently I needed legal counsel in between court hearings and all correspondence was immediately returned with clear and concise advice on how to approach the situation.

Joanna Challacombe is the best attorney there is.

Joanna has been my attorney for nearly three years. I hired Joanna after she received the highest recomendation from a well respected client. She always takes the time to listen to everything I have to say and always gives me the best advice. My case was regarding removal, custody, back child support..., etc.It was long and involved and Joanna always came to court well prepared and a top notch professional. Because of Joanna I have won each and every time. She has sacrificed her time to got to court on numerous emergency motions and has always been there for my son and I. I have read the negative reviews below and I completely disagree. My experince with her was great and I feel those negative reviews couldn't be farther from the truth. I have found her to be nothing but a professional and all I can say is to consider the source. My experience with Joanna has been a wonderful one.I have recommended her to at least seven other people, who have been extremely happy and satisfied with her as well. Joanna is top notch . If you want the best, she's your attorney.

If you have custody concerns, you NEED this lawyer!!!!

I thank Joanna Challacombe for keeping my son and I together. Mrs. Challacombe is unlike any professional I have encountered in any industry. She is excellent in her practice of law and has EXTENSIVE experience fighting for children in illinois. Mrs. Challacombe LISTENS and REMEMBERS. This lawyer tru...ely cares about the wellfare of the child, and KNOWS how to fight. Her knowledge of Illnios Law is truely exceptional. If you have legal concerns about your child, you dont want Mrs. Challacombe, YOU NEED HER.
