She’s amazing!

Hired her for a DCFS case that i was wrongly accused for in the first place. I had tried contacting other attorneys but they were all saying we would have to go to the hearing in order to sort the stuff out but Pierina had given me the option to try to get it voluntarily dismissed. She said that she ...believed there was a good chance it would get dismissed. Well I was nervous but went with it and hired her and am so glad I did! Today she gave me the news of them voluntarily dismissing the case!! THANK YOU SO MUCH PIERINA. You’re so amazing!!

Confident, smart and kind

Rina represented me in a child endangerment case and DCFS investigation. She took the time to explain all my options, potential scenarios and the court process. She answered every question I had. Her previous experience as an assistant state’s attorney and the relationships she cultivated there were ...a great asset. She is patient and real, and offered me the emotional support I needed throughout. I recommend her as an attorney and as a person. Hire her to help you when you need it. She is worth it. Thank you, Rina, for everything.

Great defense lawyer

Rina represented me in a domestic violence case where I was offered a year in jail for something I didn't do, she was able to prove to the judge of all the false accusations against me she's very reliable and definitely someone to keep in you're corner!

Highly Recommend

Pierina is great, professional, and fights for her client. Rina handled my case in a timely and professional manner. Even during certain restrictions due to COVID-19, Rina was clear on communication and was easy to contact. I highly recommend her, especially if you are dealing with a DCFS case. She t...akes the time to understand you as a person and your story.

Rina Infelise Delivers

Late last winter, in pursuit of legal representation regarding a DCFS matter, I contacted Rina, who provided keen insight into the peculiar nature of DFCS law (as opposed to criminal or civil law), at the same time that she patiently and sympathetically ascertained the facts in the case. Several m...onths -- and one global pandemic -- later, I have received the legal decision sought, notwithstanding virtual meetings, uncomfortable masks, and aggressive lawyering on the other side. Rina did something else that was novel: she persuaded me to let her do all of the talking! In her preliminary review and analysis of the case, she did a fabulous job of discovering the several failings of the DCFS investigator, whose negligence she subsequently exposed during questioning in the hearing. It would be putting it mildly to say that I am pleased that I picked up the phone and called Rina -- even after another attorney informed me that DCFS cases are not worth his time and effort, as DCFS is not required to prove findings "beyond a shadow of a doubt " Rina has thus earned my enthusiastic and unequivocal endorsement. For any legal matter involving family law -- and especially in cases brought by DCFS -- she is the person to retain. Thanks, again, Rina.

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.
