I highly recommend Peggy Raddatz. You want Peggy on your side!

Peggy Raddatz is an excellent attorney with 40 years of experience. I've hired Peggy Raddatz twice. She represented me in my divorce and 8 years later in my motion to modify the marital settlement agreement. She is so smart and handles cases with ease and expertise.

Tremendous value

After working with two previous attorneys who both missed the mark in defending my divorce case, I retained Ms. Raddatz, and she completely changed my perspective on what outstanding legal representation should be. Her thorough handling of my case, combined with her honesty, professionalism, and c...onsistent follow-through, helped me achieve the results I was hoping for. She kept me informed throughout the process and always made me feel like my case mattered. I highly recommend Ms. Raddatz to anyone in need of a skilled and dedicated divorce attorney. On top of the exceptional representation, her fees were very reasonable and well worth the investment.

Great communication and patient

Peggy Raddatz was very cooperative and patient with me during a stressful time in my life. I deeply appreciate her help and expertise on handling my divorce. She was easy to communicate with.

Outstanding attorney

Peggy has been incredible during my divorce process. Her no-nonsense and direct approach has helped keep the whole process focused and timely. She is so knowledgeable of the laws surrounding divorce and child custody issues, and I have been extremely well prepared throughout the process. She has bee...n my ultimate advocate, and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a straight shooter backed with such extensive knowledge and experience

Super experienced, clear-cut, empathetic Divorce Attorney

I found Peggy after googling and reading about 100+ reviews. She was very helpful in making everything very straightforward and simple. Many times I wanted to put super specific language in there to address potential fears of mine but 99% of the time, they were items that weren't enforceable, were al...ready covered by law, or were things she encouraged I keep a more open mind about. She spends a ton of time in the court room, is familiar with all the Cook County judges, and has decades of experience so I appreciated how black and white she made things. Peggy is very direct and concise. In our initial interview, she cut me off a time or two because I was apparently talking more than listening. At first, I was turned off by it (even though it was true lol) but I immediately saw it as an advantage with opposing counsel and I was 100% correct about that. If you're a person that likes control or is long winded and isn't used to constructive feedback, consider this an opportunity to work on that because I actually quickly grew out of the experience. She has only 100% of your best interest at heart and I could tell that during the interview. She was also very personable, and I really appreciated how well she could relate to my situation. We had several really good discussions not only as attorney/client but also as single parents; she's further ahead in this process than me and really opened my eyes in a few areas (*cough* giving them mobile phones when they get older *cough*). As a techie, I was looking for more digital redlining, PDF editing etc but we did most everything via email modifications. It ended up being ok and made it super easy for me to search for emails with any changes that were made. She's always available via text but please don't misuse that or else she'd never have time to get things done; she (or her paralegal) is super responsive via email as well. Cost-wise, pay the flat fee upfront and you will save $10K minimum easily and my situation was pretty straightforward and easy in comparison to most people. I had a great experience and outcome in my divorce proceedings and would recommend Peggy to handle things.
