Compassionate advocacy

Lindsay and her team were reliable and reassuring from the outset. She worked to make solutions for my unique situation and to get to the point without delay. I would recommend her to any close friend or family member facing separation or divorce in Illinois.

Client

Lindsay was my rock during my divorce. She calmed me down, empowered me, and continuously answered my questions at every turn. She helped me understand legal terminology and guided me through my divorce with honesty and grace.

Wonderful experience during a tough time

Lindsay has been an absolute pleasure to work with, especially considering the sensitivity and emotional nature of divorce and residual issues resulting. She always found ways to advise me on the most solid way to move forward, even while dealing with someone who was often times rather unreasonable. ...I always knew she had my back, and that was so comforting during such a tough time. Thank you so much Lindsay for all you have done for me and my children!

Amazing

Lindsay is very charismatic and hard working. I never worried about having everything done on time and correctly. In fact, she got my case done a lot faster than I anticipated. She made sure the divorce process was pain free and worry free. I appreciate everything that she did for me.

Professional, prompt, knowledgeable and goes the extra mile for her clients

Having Lindsay as my lawyer made the whole divorce process, less stressful. She handled every obstacle that came our way from my ex-husbands lawyer with ease, structure while keeping my feelings in mind. Lindsay, was always available via phone or email and no matter what questions, concerns or "freak... out's" I had, she was prompt in her response back and would let me vent. Her calm nature but feisty attitude was in line with what I needed. Calm on the phone for me and feisty in the courtroom and conversations with my ex-husbands lawyer; she would not back down. Lindsay gave great advice on when it was time to accept the offer but left it up to me to decide, while offering other scenarios should I decide to continue. The greatest feeling is having a lawyer who wants to get the settlement/divorce done and be pleased with the outcome so you can move on with your life, instead of racking up the bills. Lindsay was in my corner, fighting for me and my sanity and I appreciated all the time she spent on a case that shouldn't have been as long as it got dragged out to be. Her knowledge in divorce and separation law is noticeable and impressive. She took the time to explain things in greater detail when law terms would come up in paperwork or conversations. Within 6 months of hiring Lindsay, I was divorced. She pushed both parties along to reach an agreement, settle and was determined with exceptional skill to stop the other party from ruining the deal on the 11th hour. Lindsay took care of my needs, emotions and feelings with the upmost care. I respect her greatly and I look forward to hiring her again for the write up of a prenuptial agreement.
