Poor service
Amy is the worst possible person to handle any law/legal needs, seek counsel elsewhere immediately. If you happen to find yourself reading this comment and have already retained her as attorney and have concerns they are validated and I urge you to find anyone else to help with your legal issues.

One of the Top 10 Attorneys in Illinois in 2019

"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Amy was my opposing counsel on a difficult child abuse case. Amy was prepared, compassionate and an excellent advocate for her client."
"In my experience, Ms. Melton is a dedicated advocate. She is very focused on obtaining the best possible outcomes for her clients. Sometimes, that means litigating a case all the way to trial; often, that means reaching a settlement mutually beneficial to all parties. Ms. Melton balances negotiation, mediation, and litigation very capably. In my opinion, Ms. Melton is an excellent family law attorney."
"Amy is a former Public Defender with a lot of successful trial experience, is very knowledgeable and willing to put in the time needed to properly research the law pertaining to each case."
"Amy Melton is an outstanding attorney with talents and skills in many areas of the law. I do not hesitate to refer cases to her and highly endorse her."
