Ms. Suzanne von Leuschner

Jill was the most effective attorney I have met in Chicago. She taught me how to present a case that I was losing Pro Se. Even the Public Guardian was wrong and we saved my daughter who then graduated (early) HS as the top construction & automotive student@ a good HS, combining both her mother & fa...ther's wishes.

Highly Recommend Jill Peters

I worked with Jill Peters for a year and a half through a complicated divorce. I found Jill to be compassionate, knowledgable and astute on everything from the nuances of various judges to the legal intricacies of crafting an agreement that provided my children with every advantage they deserved thr...ough this difficult and emotional time. Jill was an absolute financial wizard armed with sophisticated technical knowledge and superior analytical and quantitative skills that enabled me to achieve the outcome I desired in a settlement that was ultimately amenable to both parties. Divorce is a process where some fires need to be fought more immediately than others based upon timing and even random human actions that impact others' safety and security. If Jill wasn't available, service remained seamless due to the accessibility of her staff. I trust Jill Peters and would highly recommend her to anyone facing the tough decision to get a divorce. She was attentive, sympathetic and surprised me with her ability to remember and cite details that were critical to my case during challenging times.

Recommendation for Jill M Peters

I was involved in very long, frustrating, complicated and difficult divorce that ultimately resulted in sole custody of our three children being awarded to me. Ms. Peters worked hard for me, was agressive when she needed to be and worked well with the judge, who I always believed saw her as the vo...ice of reason. She was leveled headed, responded to my calls and emails,always, listened and was knowledgeable of the law. I was never afraid to call about even the smallest issue. I recommend Ms. Peters highly.
