What Our Illinois Clients Say

Thorough work and good about managing expectations in what can be a very long and difficult process. Potential clients should be aware that the flat-fee/multi-phase system, in lieu of billable hours, can be nerve-wracking if one is very close to a decision that would end the case, but is also near the date when one moves to the next phase, incurring a very large payment for what could be very little work. The firm is up-front about this model, however.

Competence; responsiveness; clear communication

The entire team at Sterling was beyond phenomenal. Without them I wouldn’t have my daughter, or a chance to build a future with her.\\r\\n\\r\\nNina Kelly helped me with standing up for my rights as a father, and with making sure that I didn’t settle for anything less. Without her I truly don’t think I would have been able to start building a new life with my daughter. She is quick, professional, practically, and someone you want on your team.\\r\\n\\r\\nStacy and MJ also were huge in working with me on a payment plan that reflected my situation and needs. The assistance from their finance team was a MAJOR relief during what was of the most stressful times someone could face.\\r\\n\\r\\nHaving the support of the entire team had made it possible for me, a single dad working two jobs, to focus on the time I had with my daughter. They are now responsible for the Pokemon card collection I’ve got to clean up, and the overdue library books we read together at night.\\r\\n\\r\\nWithout question I would retain Nina and the team at Sterling if needed, which I hope never to have to do again. However if you do find yourself in what feels like an impossible situation, I would suggest that you reach out for a chance at fighting for the future you want.\\r\\n\\r\\nShoutout and thank you to everyone else involved!!

Ryan Shope was a fantastic attorney. She walked me through the prenup process very patiently, through several revisions. I'd recommend Sterling Lawyers and especially Ryan Shope to anybody needing a family law attorney.

Unfortunately, things took a turn, but Jacqueline was by my side the entire time answering my endless questions and managed my stress and anxiety with great counsel and honest feedback.

When going through a divorce, it can be one of the most devastating times in your life. I know it was for me.. not just the experience of getting divorced, but processing the things that happened that led to it and balancing the interests of both parties when they don't necessarily see eye to eye, especially with children involved. Ali and her team always made me feel supported and like someone was in my corner during a time that I really needed it. She gave me honest advice (a little tough love here and there!) even when I did not want to hear it, and she always made sure the decisions were mine, and I was happy with them, whether or not it matched her recommendation. She also always made sure I knew what I was choosing and what that meant for the future after the divorce was finalized. Her team kept me informed and on track during all phases of the process. We were able to get outcomes that were fair while protecting me and my daughter. I would recommend her to anyone going through this situation. She was accessible to me when I needed her, and her team responded so fast for any questions I had. If you want an attorney that cares about you, is organized and efficient, transparent, and will go to bat for you, then I could not recommend anyone better than Ali Isroff. In fact, a friend of mine hired her after I recommended her and was also extremely grateful and impressed with her work as well.

I appreciate the patience, guidance, and support provided by my attorney. I felt that having a temporary attorney for a while during my case introduced some confusion and perhaps inconsistent advice. I also felt at times that we could or should have been more proactive in certain situations, but, overall, she helped me achieve key victories in my case, for which I am very thankful.
