I hired Erin in 2012 to handle custody modification and support cases…read more Although I absolutely have a personal bias regarding Erin's passive approach to my cases, I also have professional and educational experiences which cause me to be wary of her lack of understanding as to how litigation should be approached for the best interest of her clients and the children involved. Specifically, I have 8 years of college education (undergrad and graduate degrees in psychology), and for the past 3 years I have studied and conducted research regarding the effects of divorce. My frustration with Erin's approach to my cases is perhaps best summarized by her suggestion of 'putting together something that will pass through the court' (her words - verbatim on 3-23-2012) rather than doing what I felt was in the best interest of my children. I believe that her approach to my case was extremely passive and felt as if she was simply pushing papers rather than fighting for the best interest of my daughters and myself. In court Erin laughed and joked with the opposing counsel while I waited to speak with her, and while we were waiting for our case to be heard she sat with opposing counsel, still joking and laughing, rather than sitting with me to discuss the case. Throughout the process, I asked Erin and her staff many technical questions about the process of and implications custody and support litigation, and I think that she interpreted this as a threat rather than as an opportunity to educate a client in order to be as informed as possible. Many of my questions went unanswered, and some answers that I received from her and her staff were so heavy in legal-speak that I did not understand. When I informed Erin that I was upset that she withheld information from me and that I disagreed with her approach, Erin walked away from my case, citing a 'breakdown in communication' and keeping ~$2,500 of my retainer. I also had other disagreements with Erin's approach to my cases, and it's my opinion that if you simply want an attorney to file papers and to show up to court, then she will do a fine job. However her fees are rather high ($6,000 retainer, $200 non-refundable consultation fee, $200-300 per hour thereafter). And in my cases she did not advocate on my behalf or present herself in court with enough assertiveness or client-centered empathy to be effective. Please contact me for additional information or for details about this review.

Hiring an attorney to handle a divorce, especially when you have children, is very stressful. As…read moresoon as I met Erin, I just knew I was in good hands, and I was right! I had an incredibly difficult/messy divorce, and Erin managed everything perfectly every step of the way. It is very obvious that when she walks into the courtroom she has the utmost respect of every attorney and clerk in there, as well as the judge, and that's because of the way she carries herself. Erin is incredibly intelligent, but also very humble and respectful, and that goes a long way in the courtroom! Erin has always listened to my concerns, gave me excellent advice, and guided me in the right direction throughout the entire process! My ex-husband acted as his own attorney, so the process took about two years, and Erin handled every ridiculous curveball professionally and with grace. In the end, I got every single thing I wanted, and my ex-husband fought her every step of the way. That goes to show just how amazing Erin is; she never faltered or lost passion for my case, not once! My divorce ended about a year ago, and Erin still checks in on me- she's just so kind and genuinely cares about her clients! Also, if you need help with an order of protection or guardian ad litem, Erin has associates and recommendations that have been very accommodating and just as wonderful as she is. If you are debating on an attorney, like a previous reviewer said, HIRE ERIN!! She is the absolute best of the best!!

When I first hired them, I had heard that they were "sharks" in the legal world, and I thought to myself, *"Great, I want the sharks on my side."* Little did I know, I was the bait. If you're looking for a firm that actually cares about your case and will work diligently to represent you, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere. Jaquays & Ellis was a complete waste of both time and money. They might be "sharks" to some, but in my case, they just left me feeling like I was prey. This is just my humble opinion and if it save one person - I'm happy to have helped them to avoid this Firm. My costs ended up well into six-figures and they will put a lein on your property to collect. CAUTION is all I can say. Good Luck!

Please choose you're lawyers carefully!…read more This is not the firm you want to go with. There are plenty of firms in Joliet who care about their clients and work hard for their clients.
