Experience matters

My family and I are extremely pleased with our outcome. Janice is masterful in and out the courtroom. As a seasoned family lawyer Janice skillfully and professionally managed my case. Her staff is top notch, they are absolutely wonderful people.

Professional & Dedicated Divorce/Child Custody/Family Attorney!!

Janice Berman is top-notch!! She helped me through a tedious divorce case & always gave me solid, honest advice. Her positive, professional rapport in the courthouse was very evident. Her approach was tactful and successful. I always felt very well represented during numerous hearings and court pro...ceedings. She always explained things ahead of time and after court dates. I was never left wondering what would happen next. She communicates well with her clients and always follows up. Janice is upfront about costs, which I found extremely helpful. I always felt that Janice had my best interest in mind along with what was best for my children. She definitely knows ALL of the ins and outs of divorce/child custody and has plenty of resources to help clients in other areas as well. I have recommended, and still continue to recommend, Janice Berman to friends & co-workers for legal representation on divorce and child custody matters. I still consult with her when I have questions 12 years post divorce. I highly recommend Janice Berman to anyone seeking legal counsel for divorce or other family law matters.

Job Well Done!

Janice Berman and her team did an AMAZING job representing myself And children in a court case in Chicago. We have Never lived in Chicago and do not know the area. We were taken to family court there in Cook county. We live in Arizona & had to find representation there. My employer is associated with... Hyatt Legal and I was able to receive a consultation. Janice understood my circumstances and worked with me to resolve this court issue. Any time I had a question I was able to address it with her AWESOME Staff via e-mail or telephone. I have Never met Janice in person nor her staff, but my family and I are Extremely Satisfied with the outcome of the court matter. Being 1,700 miles away they maintained an open line of communication with me on court hearings and outcomes. This relieved some stress on my end that we could count on having representation at all court hearings. I would HIGHLY recommend the services of Janice L. Berman

Parenting agreements and child support

Janice has been very helpful in helping me get a clear and fair parenting agreement. She is always well prepared. Her staff is professional and courteous. Her fees are fair and always provides a detailed invoice. I would definitely count on Janice for any future legal matters. I also wholeheartedl...y recommend her to anyone needing legal services.

Very good family attorney

I found Janice to be easy going, and very knowledgeable. She told me at our first meeting, what I could expect to happen in my divorce, and what was pie in the sky, that my ex was asking for. She was correct on everything that she told me. I also found her office staff to be very pleasant to work ...with. I have told my friends that if you ever need a good family lawyer, I have a good one to recommend. Jim

"I endorse this lawyer. I endorse this lawyer. Janice is a very astute attorney, to say the least. She cares about her clients, but also about her profession. This results in good relationships in the legal community, which of course, is good for her her clients. After a case we had as opposing attorneys, I referred her a friend that I did not want to represent because of a potential conflict of interest. My friend was very pleased with her representation."
