We enjoy our work, care about our clients and have fun supporting each other and discussing our cases. Most clients need a fast, effective, economical result. However, we at Hobbs & Olson also relish the opportunity to go to trial. My last jury trial was February 4, 2011. Lincoln W. Hobbs and I have practiced law together continuously since 1997. Our professional working relationship is strong, symbiotic and enduring. My secretary, Kris Gines, and I have worked together off and on since 1993 and continuously since 1998..

Recently, we have teamed up to provide a unique and formidable practice pair in the area of White Collar Crime.. My specialties are:. * Passionate defense of the criminally accused * Practical and economical assistance to small business owners* Vigorous, effective representation of individuals with everyday legal problems

I represent individuals in matters involving all areas of family law including but not limited to: divorce, legal separation, orders of protection, child custody, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, relocation cases involving UCCJEA, modification of maintenance (alimony), contested and uncontested divorces, and post-decree matters. I take the time to get to know my clients and attempt to assure their trust and confidence in my services.  I also selectively handle limited traffic cases as I particularly enjoy assisting teens and seniors who need traffic assistance.. I use my experience, knowledge of the law and familiarity with the court system in order to obtain positive outcomes for my clients. My philosophy of doing business is really quite simple: Treat each client as if they are my sole priority and give each client the personal care and attention sought while diligently working on a successful outcome.. As a former Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney, I worked for several years on high profile cases. I vigorously represent clients through detailed explanations of the legal process and by offering sound and realistic advice.. I understand that each client’s case is a sensitive matter and I guarantee that I will afford each client the proper attention, dedication and care that each client deserves.
