Sharon Genalen

I worked with Sharon Falen who was beyond amazing & professional. When I had filed for divorce back in December, I had hired a male attorney from a different law firm. After about a month, I realized he was not doing his job & did not have my best interest at heart. I terminated him & found Sharon wi...th STG. From the moment I hired her as my attorney she hit the ground running & took over my case immediately! She was always super professional & explained every detail to me in a way that I could understand. She returned emails, texts & phone calls almost immediately!! She truly fought for me & always, always had my best interest at heart & I was able to settle with way more than I ever expected, thanks to Sharon! I had heard so many horror stories about divorces taking years!!! My divorce only took about 7 months, thanks to Sharon. She made the most difficult time in my life a million times easier for me. I would highly recommend her to ANYONE & EVERYONE!!! She’s truly THE best divorce attorney who goes above & beyond for her clients! As a woman going through divorce I felt she always had my back & I never for one second had to worry if things were being taken care of because she was always on top of everything on a daily basis! She never missed a beat. I could never properly thank her enough for what she did for me to make the divorce process so much more manageable. You won’t regret hiring her!!! Thank you Sharon!!

I have been working with STG Divorce law since 2013, and have been working closely with Sharon for the last two years on legal issues involving my divorce that have arisen. Sharon is the utmost professional with command of the law and ability to resolve conflicts fairly. Sharon is very cognizant ab...out the legal costs and does everything in her power to keep those costs as minimal as possible. Lastly, I take great comfort in the fact that it is very easy to talk with Sharon about issues of concern and she is very understanding.

I had a child support issue with my ex-husband in terms of locating his whereabouts and enforcing my previous child support order from our divorce 9years ago. I disclosed with Sharon Falen that I was working with “limited finances” in regards to my dispute with the father of my child, who was refusin...g to disclose his home address or financially assist in any way. From the very beginning, Sharon was upfront and honest regarding my legal options and kept me well-informed through-out my case regarding the next legal course of action. Sharon was not only able to resolve my dispute, but far beyond exceeded my expectations in all ways possible. I am now receiving more child support then what I had initially expected (but very much needed to raise my daughter on my own!). I highly recommend for any family legality issues-Sharon demonstrated the professionalism, expert knowledge regarding her practice, open attorney/client communication, and remained respectful of my wishes in representing my child’s rights on my behalf. If I should ever need a family law attorney...I would consult only Ms. Falen and no one else to represent and fight for my rights!

I consulted 2 different attorneys, both recommended by different acquaintances, before choosing Sharon to represent me. Sharon was authentic and REAL while still remaining extremely professional. I found her refreshingly human and easy to talk to, especially while I was dealing with the stress, uncer...tainty, and raw emotions of post-divorce legal issues. She did not make grand, unrealistic promises about how easy the legal matter would be to resolve, but instead provided knowledgeable guidance about what the likely outcomes would be, financially and otherwise, and what options I had. Yet, at the same time, she made me feel I was in competent hands and that she definitely had MY back. I knew that the new child support law in Illinois would affect the outcome, but she fought for me and listened to me and my needs. The result was a very fair outcome for all involved, and one that was much better for me than it could have been had I not been prepared. In the end, I feel like I did "win," and I absolutely would hire her again.
