Susan M. Lonergan

I wanted to locate an attorney to work for me regarding a divorce. Interviewed several people initially. Susan spent time up front to explain the entire process in detail for me. The others did not really want to do this! I had no experience with this situation or any resources to utilize during this... event. Once hired she stuck to my desired goal of getting the divorce completed quickly and efficiently. Things were moved along even as the opposition wanted to keep extending the time. Start to finish, the divorce was completed in eight months. I was quite pleased with her attention and efficiency regarding my specific situation.

I highly recommend Susan as an attorney. She represented me in my divorce and I was pleased with the agreement we reached with my ex. She was prompt with returning phone calls and emails. She was prepared and knowledgeable. Susan is very friendly but tough when she needs to be. She knows everybo...dy at the courthouse from the clerks and security guards to judges. It was good to work with somebody so connected. Divorce is ugly, but Susan made it less so.

I picked Susan because she represented my friend's ex-wife and he said she was much better than the lawyer he had. She was very thorough, friendly, but was tough as well. I think in a divorce no one is going to get all of what they want, but the most important thing to me was joint custody of my ki...ds and some holidays, none of which their mother wanted me to have. She also kept my ex from moving out of state with my kids and making it financially impossible for me to see them. I have recomended her to other friends.

I had a very positive experience with Susan Lonergan. She represented me in my divorce. I found her to be patient, kind, and extremely competent. Susan was referred to me by a friend of mine who also had excellent things to say about her. I thought the settlement she reached with the other attorne...y was fair, even though our situation was VERY complicated (I won't get into the details). Susan also presented at the KIDS program in Kane County, where she gave valuable information about how to deal with your kids during divorce. I really learned a lot.

I chose to work with Susan Lonergan after having a terrible experience with my divorce lawyer. She presented information in a class that was required by the state about how divorce affects children. She represented me well and gave me good advice about how to deal with my ex and my children in a way ...that would reflect on me in the mot positive way. I am happy with the amount of visitation time I was awarded, and as a father that can be no easy feat sometimes. I would highly recommend her.
