Posted by Richard and Geo, London UK | August 25, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Fast, efficient, friendly and a great result!

My partner and I found Sladjana via a Google search. Having tried to reach a few other Chicago area attorneys without success (either not answering the phone or not returning calls...) we came upon Sladjana's name in the results page and gave her a call. We found her to be immediately friendly, k...een to assist and interested in our issue (my partner had a citation to attend court for a traffic violation). Sladjana quickly advised us as to our options, corresponded with us promptly and clearly over email, sending us the relevant documentation with clear advice and instructions as to steps to take. Finally, she got us a great result in court by getting the case dismissed, saving us over $200! I would highly recommend Sladjana and if we ever need a Chicago area attorney again I would not hesitate in using her services.

Great Help!

Sladjana did a great job in explaining the process to me a first time traffic offender. She helped me understand my options and guided me in the right direction. I would surely recommend to reach out to her for your traffic violations

She did the best possible job! She was able to get the entire case dropped at the first court date. Would recommend her to anyone. She could have dragged it out to make more money but didn't

Help me a lot!

Mrs. Vuckovic helped me to handle my traffic ticket yesterday. She did a great job. I can even say that she saved my future. There are no words can show my appreciation to her. Great attorney!

Great help

Sladjana was very quick to return calls and return texts. She made me feel comfortable and was very trusting with all her knowledge. The case was handled quickly and with good results. If ever there is a need, sladjana is number #1.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
