Kathryn Homburger Mickelson

Navigating a divorce is never easy, but working with Katy Mickelson and her team made all the difference. From our very first meeting (first email to her actually and her quick response), it was clear that this wasn’t just about legal proceedings—it was about understanding, empathy, and finding a pat...h forward with dignity. Katy and her team brought a deeply human approach to every step of the process which is what I valued the most. They listened without judgment, offered clear and thoughtful guidance, and always made me feel like more than just a case file. Their ability to balance professionalism with genuine compassion was remarkable. Throughout the process Katy and team were committed to helping me make informed decisions that aligned with my values and long-term well being. They were patient, responsive, and incredibly skilled at diffusing tension while advocating firmly for my interests. I simply can't thank Katy and her team enough, I came through this experience feeling supported, respected, and empowered. I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone seeking not just a lawyer, but a true ally during one of life’s most challenging transitions.

Katy and her team are absolutely amazing! They turned a stressful and emotional process into a smooth journey. Their responses were prompt, guiding me through every step of my divorce with clarity. They ensured I grasped everything fully and showed great sensitivity towards my feelings, while always ...prioritizing what was best for me and my children. Katy's thoroughness, intelligence, and calm demeanor undoubtedly contributed to the swift finalization of my divorce within just 4 months. I've already recommended her to my friends, and for any future family law needs, Katy is my only choice without hesitation. I'm incredibly grateful to have Katy on my side. Katy, you're the best!

Katy and her team worked with me for more than 18 months to finalize my divorce. She was extremely helpful in explaining the process to me, giving me tools to work with an outside mediator, and ultimately negotiating a settlement agreement and representing me in court. I completely trusted her advi...ce, and she made the process as smooth and as it could be. I particularly appreciated that her team treated my ex with respect, and that they were responsive to all of my concerns, including about budget.

I received a referral for Katy from an acquaintance and she was my first consultation, which was held at a very nice and modern office in downtown Chicago. I was able to meet multiple members of her team during the consultation and she walked through how she saw my case going. Having just been served... and never working with an attorney before I was very anxious about the whole situation, but her confidence and thoroughness during the consultation was very impressive. I had another consultation lined up, but felt confident after that first meeting to retain her services. During the divorce process, her team was communicative and responsive while remaining mindful of cost. When the opposition threw us some curveballs, Katy and her team were quick to react while presenting me my options. I never felt like they tried to push me into any one scenario, giving me the advice and knowledge to do what I felt was best for my situation. In spite of the aforementioned curveballs and tension from the opposition, Katy was able to achieve a settlement agreement that was aligned with and protective of my interests that felt like the best case scenario. While divorce is not a pleasant process by any means, I felt comforted and protected by Katy and her team during the entire process. I hope no one I know has to ever have a divorce, but if they do I would 100% send them her way.
