What Our Illinois Clients Say

I would most certainly give Lea at 10. I was completely satisfied with her efforts and insights into my case. She was able to schedule time with me very quickly. She clearly and concisely answered all of my questions, including some I had not prepared ahead of time as they came to me as we were going through the discussion. I was able to achieve all of my goals for the discussion and she even took the time to offer me a partial refund as the case didn’t take as long as anticipated. That goes to show not only her speed and professionalism at her job but also her integrity in doing what is right by the client. I would certainly look to work with her again in the future if such circumstances arise to need her services.

Working with Nina Kelly has been educational. Her experience in family law is superb and allowed for me to trust her expertise . She empowered me with the law and guided me through the process with patience. If you want an attorney who will fight for your best interest and is proactive , Nina is the person without a shadow of doubt.

She was able to answer questions quickly.

Wonderful firm! Nina Kelly is amazing. So compassionate, truly cares about her clients, and she does not mess around! Always ready to bat for her clients.

Nina was very personable and responded to my emails/texts in a timely manner. She explained things thoroughly as we have gone through the process. I would recommend her to friends or family who might be in need of her services.

It was great working with Katie and her team . She was straight forward , giving , heart felt and making this crazy and scary experience calming . Thanks for all the help!

Hi my name is Jennifer and Mrs. Nina Kelly has been my lawyer since 2021. My divorce took 27months to complete she has been through the long haul. The days weeks and months and years went passed with a lot mentally. I must say it was rude awakening how things go nobody ever wins but takes a toll on you. Nina did a good job for me and I was glad for Zoom calls it really help me with my case. I want to thank the Sterling staff for being helpful and the first lawyer I had who had to take an absence because of her kids and handed the case to Nina thank you. Have a Happy Holidays to all your families. Merry Christmas to all.

I can’t say enough about Lea!
She is extremely knowledgeable and great at what she does.
I retained Lea in early August and we luckily finished my case in a quick 3 months!
My ex is a handful to say the least and definitely made this process way more complicated than it had to be, but Lea was headstrong throughout the entire process.
Lea was always practical, and outweighed the potential outcome of every situation.
She was always fast to respond to messages, and gave great advice! She even called me directly several times to discuss my case.
She is patient, kind, and extremely responsive.
Lea always fought for what I deserved, and in the end I got everything I wanted and more!
I am so grateful for her, and so happy for the way it all turned out!

I highly recommend Lea Diaz as a divorce attorney. She handled my case professionally and was very patient with my many questions. She communicated frequently and kept me informed of any updates on the case. Her paralegal Danielle was excellent as well. I felt well-informed throughout the entire process.

What could have been a very long and painful process, ended up being very efficient. Thanks to all the help we received along the way. Everyone was on point with communication and submitting everything in the timely matter. We didn’t even meet in person once.

The only thing good about my divorce was using Sterling Lawyers!

I would not been able to go through the hardest part of my life without Katie and her team.
Everyone was very helpful, understanding and took the time to listen and respond empathetically. The staff is incredible!!

Nina Kelly was a pleasure to work with, responded quickly to emails and phone calls, and made the process easy.

The entire team was very supportive and understanding during the entire process. All of them helped more than words can say and can’t thank them enough

I highly recommend Lea Diaz as a divorce attorney. She handled my case professionally and was very patient with my many questions. She communicated frequently and kept me informed of any updates with the case. Her paralegal Danielle was excellent as well. I felt well informed throughout the entire process.

I started working with Ali Isroff at Sterling in 2021. No one ever needs a family lawyer because things are going good but I can say that Ali and the entire team at Sterling have gone above a beyond to make this process as painless as possible. Everything has also been explained to me, I’ve felt supported the entire time and working with them has been a pleasure. Ali and everyone I’ve worked with knows their stuff and gives great counsel on when to pul back or when to really stick to your guns which is something I appreciate because family court gets heated so having a good lawyer that can remind you of long term goals and what’s really worth achieving through this process is critical. Unfortunately I’ve had to call Ali multiple times since 2021 but I can’t see myself working with anyone else or a different firm because of how effective and responsive she and everyone at Sterling is. I have and will continue to recommend Ali and the firm.

Professional service

Sterling Law provides a wonderful service during a not so wonderful time. I had the good fortune of being represented by Nina Kelly during my 13 month long divorce. She was attentive, responsive, reachable, focused and thorough during the entirety of the proceedings. With all the unknowns a divorce can bring, it was truly a blessing to have someone that knew what was coming and forewarned me ahead of time, helping me feel prepared. In addition to amazing representation, Sterling Law also provides you with upfront costs. I never had to worry about being charged for a text or email or phone call like other firms. Your price is your price, and you know it ahead of time. As simple as that. I pray I never need to use this type of service again, but if I do, there’s no thinking twice about who I would utilize.

Lea and Danielle have been amazingly helpful and great partners in my divorce case. They have made everything so much easier with such a stressful situation.

Sterling Lawyers LLC was able to pair me with an exceptionally wonderful lawyer named Nina Kelly. She was very diligent and dedicated throughout my 13 month ordeal. With my career path not having much legal overlap, there were constantly terms and legal situations in which I had no knowledge. Nina would explain things, she would re-explain things, and simplify things to help me understand what was happening. I was never made to feel dumb or judged for not knowing things. Instead I found myself frequently feeling supported and in a way, powerful, knowing that she was on my side. Divorce is an ugly and scary series of unknowns. I feel fortunate to have had someone knowledgeable and focused in my corner….The other thing that I found myself pleased with from this service was the transparent pricing. You know what you’re paying upfront without any surprise fees. That’s a big deal. It’s as straightforward as straightforward can be. Recently I bought my parents tickets on Ticketmaster for a show. After choosing their seats and seeing the ticket price and thinking to myself that this was a price I was comfortable with, after all the extra taxes and processing and whatever else fees, my total charged to my card was a VERY different price point. None of that happened here. The price that was emailed to me, and also posted on the website, is the exact price I was charged. No extras…..If divorce is something that you can’t avoid, having someone that knows what they’re doing, listens to your wants and needs and keeps you informed along the way, then congratulations your search is over. Knowing how much it will cost you upfront is a cherry on top.

Very helpful and kind!

Everything was handled and taken care of

I cannot express my appreciation and gratitude for the service provided to me by Sterling. My attorney was Jacqueline who was also assisted by Jessica. The case was complex. The attorneys looked out for my financial interests and ensured that my case was settled fairly. Thank you so much for all your help with my case. I look forward to my next chapter!

Handled everything and made the process easy.

Ali replaced my previous attorney and saved my case. She’s very smart and is a good attorney. I can’t say that about many attorneys now a days and I have worked around attorneys in court for years. She knows how to be very professional even at times when I was stressed out over the case. Overall, she is a very smart and assertive attorney. She had to clean up the mess that my previous attorney left behind and did so without any complaints.

So far, everything looks good. Progress has been slow, but questions have been answered in a timely manner.
This opinion may change when the divorce is final.

Ali & her team kept me updated with everything regarding my divorce case. From the beginning the team was nothing but compassionate, supportive, & understanding. Each step taken was clear, if I had questions their response was quick, & every update was also forwarded to me. They’re not only professional but they truly cared & help me feel comfortable throughout the way.

Very helpful
what i needed assistance with, able to explain it to me thoroughly.
Honest about the case.
Finding the best solution
quick and simple.

Explained very clear and made sure I understand everything
answered all questions

I’m so appreciative of the service and advice that Jacqueline has provided me during this process. Jessica also provided me sound advice regarding the offer that I received from my former spouse. To quote Jessica, she advised me in our meeting, “take this offer and run!”

I felt Katie was very thorough in providing all the advice and information I needed during our initial consultation. I felt very comfortable with her

Katie Vandeusen and Ryan Shope did a great job representing me in my family law case. Everything was handled in professional manner and I had zero problems. I am thankful for their services and I would recommend them if you are in need a good lawyer. Thank you 🙏

only problem all i had was

she wasn’t there, she sent a representative like a teenager. And didn’t know anything. Wrong name in the document. So the judge made a few adjustments on the spot. She didn’t know what she was doing.

Ali Isroff is one of the best attorneys I’ve known. Very professional, always responded quickly with any question/concern I had. She’s great! I really recommend.

Lea Diaz is an excellent divorce attorney. She created a strategy that changed the entire outcome of the divorce. In the end, this man who was in a 38yr marriage … got everything requested and more. Money well spent.

Extremely awesome and quick.
Gives updates
Empathetic
Straight to the point, no sugar coating.
Just a lot of positive aspects
She had my best interest at heart.
Very professional and knowledgeable of the law.

She is very timely

Ali Isroff and her team were able to complete my uncontested divorce with a child involved within 2 months! Yes, that is correct! She worked diligently and communicated often and quickly to keep this divorce moving. She is very direct and professional and will not let her clients settle for anything less. I highly recommend Sterling and especially Ali. Thank you for getting this resolved so quickly!
