Most divorce attorneys will not understand business valuations, close corporations, unique investment structures, and retirement assets. I understand tax returns, income statements, balance sheets, and business appraisals that leave most family law attorneys confused.. I moved to Illinois in 2011 to raise a family of my own. As a father and husband, I understand how important it is for a parent to have a close relationship with his or her children, and how a divorce can and will change ever aspect of a person's life.

Lori is the absolute "go to" lawyer for DCFS investigations & administrative hearings. I know what it is like to go up against slow-moving, bureaucratic state agencies that issue arbitrary and damaging findings of fact or conduct unfair investigations. Attorneys who do that kind of work need two things: an aggressive nature (not willing to sit back and let the case happen according to the agency's timetable) and a deep understanding of the nuances in the administrative code and regulations that the agency must follow. Without both, you'll be overwhelmed and your clients will suffer. Lori has the perfect combination of these qualities - she knows the rules backwards and forwards and will use everything at her disposal to fight for her clients. I know when I refer a case to Lori that the client is in the best hands. I strongly recommend her for all criminal defense and DCFS work.
