It was high conflict case , but Sammen handled professionally .Sameen is knowledgeable , professional, sharp, and straightforward attorney. She is very kind and care for her client . She listens to her client ..., explain every steps , and works as a team. She replies to emails ,phone calls , and messages . I always approach Sameen whenever I need help and she is always there to help . I highly recommended Sameen .

Best Lawyer Ever!!

I hired Sameen Zia for my divorce case last year. I found her to be very competent, professional and always very responsive. She replied to all my emails and calls promptly. She guided me step by step with my case. I was content the way she represented my case. Her caring and kind nature made the cas...e smooth till the end. Her fees are reasonable as well. Even now if have any questions I reach out to her and she always responds back with her honest suggestions. I highly recommend Sameen Zia as she would go above and beyond to represent anyone’s case. If i’d be needing any advice in the future i will reach out to her for sure. I cannot thank her enough, grateful to have her!!

Amazing attorney

Sameen is a great attorney, I would really rank her as the best family attorney in Chicago land. My divorce case has been in court 2 and a half years. I hired 3 attorneys before Sameen. Everyone just kept charging me without getting me anything. Sameen made everything clear with a reasonable fee. bes...ide she understands what she is doing, she is a sweetheart and friendly person, I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ANYONE LOOKING FOR FAMILY ATTORNEY HIRE (SAMMEN )

Excellent lawyer and a wonderful human being

Sameen is a terrific lawyer , very efficient , prompt and thorough in her dealings. She used to follow up everything diligently from filing motions , writing emails to answering phone calls promptly. Even if she was in court room or deposition ,she used to text me saying she call back in few minutes... .I had a bad experience with the previous lawyer who wasted 18 months of time , money and ruined my case.Where as Sameen being a busy lawyer fought my case as if it was her only case and me her only client . She got me the best deal and tried to get me every little thing she can . The most unusual and strange thing was she never discussed her fees or money. I consulted several lawyers before going to Sameen and all other lawyers seemed ruthless and money hungry. She is the most humane and compassionate lawyer anyone can ever encounter. All through my nasty divorce Sameen was not only my lawyer , but my friend , therapist and my life support . If I could I will nominate her as the most humane lawyer of the millennium. I am eternally grateful to Sameen and wish her the very very best in life.
