About Jessica
Biography
I greatly enjoy practicing family law. The majority of my cases are pre-decree divorce, post-decree divorce, custody, child support, parentage, and adoption cases. I also draft and review pre-marital agreements and take family law appeals cases, including DCFS appeals cases. I am licensed to and have practiced in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. I also was involved in a case where Writ of Cert was requested in the Supreme Court of the United States. I strive to achieve the best results possible for my clients but will also be straightforward and honest with them about the cost-effectiveness of their goals as well as their likelihood of success. I do not oversell or overpromise as we are attorneys, and not fortune tellers. I firmly believe that communication is the key to a successful attorney-client relationship and I strive to ensure that all of my clients feel that they are listened to and well represented. I also handle a substantial amount of military family law cases, which can have more complex financial issues than an average divorce.
Prior to practicing family law I was a clerk for a boutique family law firm, as well as a law clerk for a Cook County Domestic Relations Judge. I enjoy participating in networking events and meeting new people. I practice primarily in Cook County, DuPage County and Lake County. I recently was invited to guest lecture for a Family Law class at the John Marshall Law School on the topic of pre-marital agreements.

Truly a HONEST attorney!
3 years ago I was looking for an attorney to handle my "unique" custody/support case for my daughter.
