Extremely helpful attorney!

Amanda Bradley-Verett helped my husband with issues regarding family matters. She was very professional and extremely helpful with all of our (many) issues! She actually resolved the matter exactly as we had hoped that it could be done, and continues to be there for us for any questions or concern...s we have now that our matter has been resolved. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

It was a long strange trip to get to the end of this case, with a lot of weird detours. I really appreciate the confidence you showed in staying with me, even in the darkest hours when it seemed all was lost.

Posted by Cat | April 07, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Appeals

Quick wit, sharp mind, and compassionate.

The Illinois Appellate Court appeals brief that was written for us is an outstanding piece of craftsmanship. Although the courts did not rule in our favor it was not because of our lawyer. If services are needed I will definitely call again.

Although we lost, I feel the case was very close at the appellate level. I also think appealing the case meant the right result could be reached. I wish the Court had ruled differently; I do every time I lose. It has been my pleasure to get to know this wonderful family.

Not helpful

Amanda Bradley verett was extremely unprofessional and was not helpful in my matters. In the end I ended up with more debt than ever with nothing resolved.

Impressive

I was very scared and confused when my x took me to court to have him and his new wife granted sole custody of our son and daughter. From the beginning Amanda, respected me and how this legal ordeal was affecting us. We became close and I could trust her integrity, professionalism, knowledge and sk...ill of the legal system, and her commitment to do her absolute best for the sake of my children. When dealing with an x who has lost sight of everything except his own rage, the legal process is nothing less than a nightmare. Amanda never lost hope or her focus to keep my children safe. Because of her, I maintained full custody of both children. She is an excellent attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Awesome Representation

I filed my divorce pro se and needed to retain a lawyer fairly quickly. Out of all of the lawyers I call Amanda was very straight forward and up front about the cost and her work ethic. She explained the whole process to me and what to expect. Even when I felt like giving up the fight she pull me bac...k in an represented me very well during my case. She tried her best to settle my divorce out of court but because my ex husband was unwilling to compromise we did have to go to court. Amanda, prepared me for court and was very organized. She had all exhibits and documentation in order. In the end the judge ruled in my favor. I appreciate what Amanda did for me and my kids. If I know anyone who may need representation of a divorce lawyer I have no problems referring them to her. Thanks Amanda
