Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Ms. Lane is a stellar immigration, criminal defense and civil litigation attorney. She is very passionate about protecting the rights of her clients. She works tenaciously at obtaining justice for every soul she possible can. Her primary goal is to obtain justice for her clients and her secondary goal is to obtain monetary recovery for them. She takes on cases that most attorneys would decline because the legal matter is too complicated, too emotional or requires too much work for little compensation. She successfully handled cases against the City of Chicago, Clerk of Circuit Court of Cook County, Walmart and Walgreens. She has handled a very contentious divorce matter titled, Epstein v. Epstein, all the way to Seventh Circuit and had the case reversed and remanded. After 20 years of knowing Ms. Lane, I still admire her work ethic and she continues to be an inspiration to me. I wholeheartedly endorse Attorney Ms. Lane."

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2024.

Reciprocal - Suspension issued in MI, 2024

updated on 07/02/2025

This means that the attorney's misconduct in another state, or jurisdiction, also violated the rules for practicing law in Michigan.

Partial Stayed Suspension and Probation issued in IL, 2023

updated on 07/02/2025

This type of suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time, and must meet State ordered requirements. While on probation, the State monitors the lawyer's activities in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
