Amelia Katherine Lahn

Amelia did an outstanding job on my expungement. I had a B felony for conspiracy to delivery cocaine. She was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job representing me. She informed me of progress along the way and discussed options with me. I was pleased with her work. I highly recommend her ...to others.

Amelia was able to reach an extremely favorable result for my student (in college) who was charged with a low-level felony. The charge came out of the blue, and we hired Amelia on recommendation from a friend (who raved about the work Amelia has done for them). Within minutes of our first message to ...her, she responded with details pertinent to retaining her services, her experience representing similar clients and cases, and more importantly, with extremely useful context about the processes and experiences typical to these situations. Even though my family were all in a bit of a panic, she really helped set our minds at ease by explaining the steps and potential approaches / outcomes. It was clear from the beginning that Amelia had a handle on exactly which aspects of the case to focus on and how to best represent, and communicate well with my kid. In fact, her communication was fantastic. Always timely, always clear and comprehensive. I felt completely supported throughout her work with my family, and couldn't be more satisfied with our experience.

Amelia represented our son during a student conduct issue at college. She was extremely knowledgeable about the process and was extremely helpful in working with all of us to navigate this. In particulary, she was very accessible and reassuring as we went through the process and helped us get to a ...good outcome. I highly recommend her!

Amelia was very professional and reliable. She was easy to reach at any time. She gave me great instructions and made sure I knew what to expect through every part of my case. Even after my trial ended, I was able to reach out to her for legal advice or clarification on future processes. Amelia is wo...nderful at her job, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great defense.

As a parent, you never expect that you will get a phone call in the middle of the night from your college student telling you that they need legal assistance. We got that call and contacted a lawyer in Chicago for advice. He recommended attorney Amelia Lahn. Her experience as the former Coordinato...r of Student Conduct at Indiana University’s Office of Student Ethics was invaluable in assisting our student in navigating through the University’s student conduct (ethics) process and the resulting meetings with the Dean of Student’s office due to the violation of the University’s code of conduct. Because of her experience, our student was treated fairly by the University and able to comply with the necessary steps to remove themselves from probation in a short period of time. In addition, Ms. Lahn also assisted with the criminal component of the infraction and worked with the court to get our student into the pre-trial diversion program as part of the penalty process thereby avoiding a trial. Ms. Lahn respectfully and frequently communicated with us throughout the process without violating our student’s privacy. Her fees are reasonable given the service she provides. We have also used her to assist our student in getting a security deposit back that the landlord refused to return. Overall, she is fair, reasonable, honest, and direct as to how she can assist your student in any legal manner they encounter. Both situations were an invaluable learning experience for our student (and us) and well worth the expense.
