Sheryl Rae Ghezzi is the best around. When I was looking for a lawyer to represent me in my divorce, many lawyers that I contacted immediately began to discuss money. None gave me any advice, nor did any respond when I emailed or called them for help in this matter. Ms. Ghezzi contacted me without hesitation. She was very professional and made time to meet. She explained what my options were even if I didn't hire her. For those of us that are divorced or currently are going through one, we can all agree divorces can be a very hard and daunting life decision, but with the help of Ms. Ghezzi this action didn't feel hopeless. The quality services that I received weren't lackluster. I found out why she is a super lawyer. The way she kept me well informed and fought on my behalf was extraordinary. The level of services rendered felt like my case was the only case that was given her full attention. While I do know that she was working on other cases, her energy and diligence seemed effortless. I can't say enough about how she helped me get a fresh started on life. I recommend her %100 to anyone that needs not just a lawyer, but a top tier lawyer. In the future if I need a lawyer again, she's definitely will be the one call.

Beware of this so called attorney at law Sheryl Rae Ghezzi!!! In the beginning she will talk big and you will believe that is no doubt she will win your divorce case. The reality is that Sheryl Ghezzi has plenty of knowledge about family law but she will not use it because she is too busy concentrating on your wallet. She will even pay you a visit at your house to get to "know you better", but in fact her true reason is to see with her own eyes how much money she can take from you. Sheryl Rae Ghezzi cares ONLY about your money not your divorce or child custody problems. I regret the fact that I have not paid close attention to the reviews I have read about Sheryl Rae Ghezzi or at least rely on my gut feeling when I hired this attorney to represent me and my child. Don't pay this attorney a penny until you start seeing results, the retainer she will ask you for in the beginning are going to be gone after your second court day. She will play nice and affectionate but the moment you are out of money she will drop you like a hot potato. Don't retain this attorney look somewhere else. The money she took from me and my family I could have hired any other decent lawyer to take my case from the beginning to the end of my divorce. If you are looking for a divorce lawyer you probably have enough problems already on different levels of your life don't add more frustration by hiring Sheryl Rae Ghezzi.

Earlier this year, I was looking for an attorney to handle my uncontested divorce. When I found Dave, we spoke about my case and I hired him. This turned out to be an excellent decision on my part. Dave kept in communication, responded promptly to my calls and/or emails and provided excellent legal guidance. Despite there being a few hiccups along the way, Dave kept things focused and, happily, my divorce was finalized earlier this month (December 2020). I am very grateful for Dave’s knowledge and wise counsel. If you’re in a similar situation, I urge you to contact Dave, discuss your case then hire him - you will not be sorry. I highly recommend the Wolkowitz Law Office!

Dave Wolkowitz handled my uncontested divorce. He was straightforward from day one and took the time to explain everything to me in detail which I highly appreciated as the topic was very unfamiliar to me. He was always very responsive and handled my case timely and effectively in spite of Covid constraints. Will certainly use their services again in the future for other legal matters. Excellent service and very honest. I highly recommend this law firm.

When asking about a serious topic like child support I was asked if I even knew what that was. Then when I answered, I was told that wasn’t the true definition. So I asked what is it then? And was told that it doesn’t matter anymore for whatever reason. I thought I could simply be treated with respect being that I was looking to them for advice due to my lack of knowledge. Instead I got a taste of arrogance and a poor level of attitude that was anything but professional. I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND

Scott Gordon was a great choice. After meeting with several attorneys I meet with Scott and one of his associates. I was going through a divorce and needed help with the legal process and custody of my daughter. He was incredibly knowledgeable, and was very responsive. My case was handled with care and I was very happy with the end result. Scott and the attorneys were always there to answer questions and was quick to respond to me if and when I needed anything, and I felt like they all cared about me and my daughter. My case was resolved in a timely manner, and the real benefit was the future relationship with my daughter. I would highly recommend Scott Gordon & Associates for any member of your family going through a divorce with or without children. They are excellent at what they do.

Brad & Maxine were very professional and extremely responsive. I never had to follow up because they were always one step ahead. While I had hoped my case would’ve been shorter, I feel like their approach caused me less financial burden in the long run. I have had 3 previous attorneys who fell short and this firm was by FAR the best I have ever dealt with. They explained everything in layman’s terms and were sensitive to not incur additional legal fees. I highly recommend them. Family court cases are never easy but I’m so happy I chose WKO to represent me. You will not be disappointed!

Excellent professional service. Matt Linstroth ably served as my advocate, while always keeping watch of the goal; a peaceful just settlement. He maintained a positive attitude and gave good sound advice. Had we known that the opposing side had been secretly reading our confidential emails, we may have obtained the normal 50/50 split rather than the resulting 47/53 split. The opposing side made good use of inside information to repeatedly negotiate an agreement and then retract and demand more. Matt characterized their actions as frustrating and less than principled. It was only after sending Matt an email stating that I had enough of this behavior and was ready to wait for our court date that the agreement was reached and honored. Had Matt dealt with an opposing side that played by the rules, I certainly could have had a better outcome. Knowing now what we were dealing with, I am all the more grateful to have had him as my advocate.

I engaged this attorney to represent me in a post-divorce case. I found this attorney to be less than professional when it came to billing matters. I will give few examples here He has another attorney - John who helps in drafting petitions. My petition moved around between these attorneys and each time I was billed twice given the agreement that I would be billed based on the “time spent”. As a result, for a simple initial petition, I ended up paying twice as much and the initial costs to file petition itself ran in to thousands. He has an assistant who prepares files for court appearances and submits petitions. She billed me for the time spent on “file preparation for the court date”. When William would write me a letter regarding the updates after court appearances, instead of emailing me, he would use his stationary - letter head. His assistant would then write her own elaborate email and forward me William's letter as a pdf attachment. For these simple administrative tasks (submitting petitions/memorandum to the court, forwarding William’s updates), she billed me at $250/Hr which is just as much as regular attorney rates in Chicago. He also drafted needless petitions without consulting me and billed me for the same. They were never used in the litigation. For the pretrial, his co-attorney wrote the memorandum and then he reviewed it, again did final review and then again spent time on it in preparation for pre-trial. The only point I am able to provide to his credit is that he filed petitions timely and was present on court dates. But I would have expected this from any professional lawyer. There are some reputable lawyers on the Clark street and in my opinion, this particular firm is not among them.

When my twin brother was diagnosed with Parkinson's, his wife of 37 years found a boyfriend and decided to file for divorce. He was devoted to his marriage, his children and his faith. His decision to choose an attorney was based upon his faith. My brother chose a very kind and compassionate attorney. Van Schwab took great care, guiding my brother, with patience and empathy, allowing him his dignity, throughout the process. As my brother's disease progressed, I had to step in and help him online. I live several states away, he and his staff kept me informed as to how to help my brother, always knowledgeable and professional, thorough in the process of the complexities of the law, never making me feel inadequate. Van Schwab became more than an attorney to my brother, but also a friend. He had my brother's best interests at heart, as he helped him navigate through a challenging situation, and ending with a fair settlement. I would highly recommend his expertise to anyone dealing with a difficult divorce.

I have had a very good experience with Bradford & Gordon. They handled my divorce as well as a pre-nuptial agreement for my current marriage. I felt that they were invested in my well-being (personal, financial and emotional) throughout the entire process, and that they were fair, honest and direct at all times, which I greatly appreciate.

2.0 stars Posted by Paul December 9, 2019 While Mr. Bradford seemed very supportive and enthusiastic when I first retained him, his attention to my case dwindled as it went forward in court. As time went on I found it very difficult to get a hold of Mr. Bradford in a timely way, even as some conflicts with my ex required a timely response. When my case eventually came to its climactic appearance before the court Mr. Bradford handled himself very poorly before the judge, to the extent that the judge became very angry at Mr. Bradford and ordered him to sit down in the spectator's area and remain silent. I was left to speak for myself as my case was settled. Mr. Bradford then asked me not to mention what had happened to anyone.

It appeared Mitchell Gordon and his team were very thorough and helpful when taking on my case which had been delayed in pre-trial court for 2 plus previous years. I thought I had found a good, ethical representative for me, but when the time came to 'negotiate' with the trial judge and the ex's unscrupulous attorney, the monies I was told I would be getting paid back to me, for example: monthly support from my ex, court ordered to me during the divorce in which he refused to pay, $40K the ex deceivingly took out of one of our joint accouts which I had pointed out to Mitchell and ask him to go after (in which he said he would), but did not, $70K the ex had accused me of stealing and told I had to pay him back, in which I had provided evidence to the contrary numerous times and was told I was cleared of, plus other items totaling ~$300K, Mitchell Gordon let my ex walk away with. I was yelled at, threatened, gas-lighted and told if I didn't pay the ex these monies, I would be forced to go to trial. All that this attorney wanted to do was end the divorce proceedings quickly no matter what it cost me. Do not believe any attorney who tells you they will make sure you get the funds owed you 'at the end' of the divorce. It Never happens. After a 30 plus year marriage as a stay at home mom of 3, my disabled son and I have had to now figure out how we will live on much less than we were promised and suppose to have received, but never will. In addition, at one point I was told by this attorney that he did not need my business, because I was not receiving very much in the settlement anyway and he had many other wealthier clients. This did not seem to matter though when I asked him to forgive $10K of my very large last invoice, but he refused. I ended up paying this attorney over $64K to finalize a divorce where I ended up losing ~$300K to my ex which belonged to me and my son. Beware.
