Illinois Lawyers Justino Mirabelli to Karen M.

Firm: Beermann Pritikin Mirabelli Swerdlove

161 N Clark St Ste 2600 , Chicago , Illinois 60601

Practice Areas: Family

I started working in the Domestic Relations Division in 2009 as a law clerk and have always been drawn to the area of family law. I became licensed to practice law in May of 2016 and have an hourly rate of $225/hour. I am bringing my years of experience in the Domestic Relations Division into my practice. It is my longstanding foundation in the area of family law that allows me to compete by offering more experience than other newly licensed attorneys who charge similar rates. I did spend 2015 away from Family Law and worked as a 711 licensed law clerk for the States Attorney's office where I gained trial experience helping to prosecute misdemeanor criminal charges (DUI) in traffic.. I offer free consultations both over the phone and in my office. A consultation can help with general questions or assessing the need for an attorney at all. Should I not be available to speak, I always make a point to promptly return a phone call.

I always say "Lawyers are like plumbers...we work for YOU."   Choosing a lawyer to represent you in such important matters of family and finance may be one of the most crucial decisions of your life.   I offer free consultations so you can meet me; question me and determine whether or not I am the right choice for you - before you spend one dime.  I offer fair and flexible payment options and pride myself on my professionalism and my ability to work effectively and respectfully with opposing counsel and adverse parties.  In matters which may already be emotionally devastating, the last thing my client needs is a lawyer generating contention and excessive and unnecessary fees.  However, if the fight is imminent and unavoidable, you will find a fierce and formidable attorney in your corner.
