Ishtar Mariam Baba

Going through a divorce is the scariest and most emotionally challenging experiences anyone can face, but having Ishtar by my side made all the difference. From our very first meeting, she treated me not just as a client, but as someone she genuinely cared about-- like family. I'll be honest: I'm ...a very particular person. I hold high standards when it comes to professionalism, communication, and attention to detail-- and Ishtar exceeded every single one of them. She was always prepared, always responsive, and always a few steps ahead. Her ability to balance emotional intelligence with legal sharpness is rare and incredibly valuable. Her compassion, patience, and understanding helped me feel seen and supported through every difficult moment. But beyond her kindness, she is an incredibly sharp, strategic, and fearless advocate. She fought for myself and my daughter with passion and determination, never backing down where it came to protecting my rights and the wellbeing of myself and my daughter. Ishtar NEVER treated my case like just another file. She listened deeply, responded promptly, and explained every step in terms I could understand. She gave me both strength and peace of mind when I needed it the most. There are thousands of family law lawyers in the Chicagoland area. In fact, I interviewed nearly 20 of them. Ishtar, however, is different. She is loaded with skill and grit that is simply unmatched (coming from a client who is extremely particular). If you're looking for a divorce lawyer who will fight for you fervently while also supporting you with heart and humanity, I cannot recommend Ishtar enough. She truly changed my life, and I will always be grateful for her. She turned my worst nightmare into a bearable experience, and for that, I can never repay her.

Ishtar is a highly skilled and responsive divorce attorney, providing expert legal counsel and prompt communication. Her extensive knowledge of family law ensures aggressive advocacy on behalf of her clients. While divorce is inherently stressful, Ishtar's expertise facilitated a positive outcome a...nd a favorable settlement, all at a reasonable cost.

Ishtar helped me through a very difficult divorce. During this unknown, stressful, draining, and lengthy process, our professional relationship turned into a true friendship. I trusted her, she trusted me and with great teamwork justice was served. Ishtar helped me to remain calm, realistic, and focu...sed even when I felt we were losing ground. In unknown situations like this you need someone who is always by your side and If I could describe her, I would say she is the goddess of love and war. She was always available, quick, very responsive, contentious, meticulous, hardworking, and always one step ahead. She is a very clever person and the positive outcome proved that her strategy was the correct one to follow all along. I am grateful she represented and guided me, and I feel lucky that I had such a noble person next to me. I would choose her over and over again and without any doubts I am recommending her one hundred percent. Thank you for everything Ishtar, you are truly a shining star!

I cannot thank Ishtar enough for the exceptional service she provided me with. I wanted to move my kids out of state, and I was having trouble with my ex husband. I reached out to Ishtar, and she promptly responded to my concerns, putting my worries to rest. Ishtar was extremely professional, kind, a...nd compassionate throughout the entire process, providing me with all the necessary legal guidance and support. Ishtar ensured that all the necessary paperwork was completed promptly, making the process of relocating my kids out of state as smooth and stress-free as possible. I was incredibly impressed by her knowledge of the law and her ability to explain the legal process in terms that were easy for me to understand. Thanks to Ishtar, my children are happy in their new state, and I couldn't be more grateful. I highly recommend her services to anyone in need of legal assistance, and I am confident that she will provide you with the same excellent service that she provided me. Thank you so much for everything!
