Posted by Lillian | June 05, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Probate

First Class Attorney

I live in California and I was tasked with being the administrator of my cousin’s estate in Chicago. I was fortunate to find Mollie Whitehead to take the estate through probate. The process could not have gone more smoothly or efficiently. Mollie and the entire office staff were always pleasant an...d available to answer all of my questions. I recommend her without reservation and truly appreciate her professionalism and kindness.

Friendly and knowledgeable

Working with Mollie has made managing guardianship of my disabled father easier on me and my family. She has been friendly, knowledgable and efficient every step of the way!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
