One of the Top 10 Attorneys in Illinois in 2019

I highly recommend Amy Melton and her staff! I interviewed a couple of attorneys prior to visiting Amy. What stood out about her first was how friendly and caring she was. She did not rush through her initial consultation and asked many important questions besides answering all of the questions and... concerns I had. After speaking to her the first time I didn’t hesitate to hire her. It soon became obvious that my ex was going to be difficult. Amy handled all of his demands and his constantly changing legal advisers with professionalism. I especially appreciated how Amy and Sue, her paralegal, got me through difficult roadblocks during the divorce by talking to me and putting everything into perspective! By the time my divorce was final I felt like Amy and Sue were more friends than hired professionals. The outcome of my divorce was positive. It took awhile to finalize due to Covid beginning shortly after we filed. But Amy and Sue made it all work in spite of the lockdown. If I ever need another lawyer Amy Melton would be my first call. I have already recommended her to a few people. The cost of my divorce, I feel, was competitive and reasonable. They will work with you regarding payment and they try to be as frugal as possible. I don’t know what I would have done without Amy and Sue in my corner!
