Elizabeth I. Reed

Ms. Reed is a highly qualified and experienced attorney. I hired her for my divorce in 2023, I had a very high conflict divorce, my ex was always playing games and using the kids to manipulate me. My previous lawyer kept telling me that I need to compromise and go with it while my kids suffered. As s...oon as Ms. Reed took the case, things started to progress. Ms. Reed did not allow for the manipulation to go on for the sake of compromise, once she put a stop to it, my ex moved to manipulating the courts to attempt to get what he wanted. Ms. Reed continue to fight that battle with me, we put petition after petition to stop the manipulation of the courts, until finally my ex had no more cards under his sleeve to postpone, prolong, and abuse the system. My divorce was such an emotional roller coaster, and Ms. Reed was there every step of the way ( On weekend, after hours, any time! ). My ex loved to act out after hours to stress me out, and Ms. Reed always answered, always gave me advice and reassured me. I am thankful for all the work they she did for my kids and I. The divorce is finally over, the custody was resolved.

The best way to describe her is Shakespeare's character of ''Shylock'' in The Merchant of Venice. In 2024, I hired her for a DCFS hearing before an administrative judge and after collecting my hard earned money, she changed completely! As an Attorney she was supposed to carry out interviews prior t...o the hearing to help give my case a chance, but she didn't. During the hearing I was the one that brought one person to support me. My advice to anyone, DO NOT HIRE her, she will do TERRIBLE JOB!!!!

I hired her for my divorce. My ex filed an EOP saying that she feared her her and the children’s lives to gain custody of the house and kids, I had text messages from the ex saying that she would give me the kids on the weekends if I moved out of the House immediately otherwise she was going to file ...an EOP. I showed this to Liz because I wanted to present it to the judge and Liz just told me that the judge would view it as retaliation towards my ex. She also told me that she didn’t wanna negotiate custody of the children for the first two years, because once the divorce and custody is finalized the lawyers don’t make any more money. So let’s prolong it as long as possible in order In order to line her pockets with as much cash.

I hired miss Reed for my custody battle. She is a very sweet lady and knows her job but I felt rushed. My intire parenting agreement that she had me sign has so many loop holes that insted of my x and I working things out it made more conflict between us. So 25,000 later I'm still in court every mont...h since then trying to fix the mistakes that sould have never been there.
