*Disclaimer: Cole Sadkin represented the opposing party in my case. I won my case,…read moreself-represented, but I believe people looking for counsel should have as much information as possible.* *Also, due to the nature of the case, I proceeded as Jane Doe. Trial concluded on March 18, 2026.* Attorneys who appeared on this case through Cole Sadkin: Mason Cole, Michael Krzywicki, James Cook, and Judith Kott Cole Sadkin represented the opposing party in my civil case for sexual assault and battery in Cook County Circuit Court. I was a pro se litigant who, despite the tactics and conduct I experienced throughout litigation, ultimately obtained a six-figure jury verdict in my favor. This review is a warning about the professionalism and litigation conduct I personally observed from this firm. Over the course of litigation, multiple attorneys cycled in and out of the case. The handling of the matter often felt disorganized, hostile, and unnecessarily aggressive - far beyond zealous advocacy. One of the most disturbing moments involved attorney Judith Kott's characterization of my deposition testimony. During my deposition, counsel specifically asked whether I was "going in and out of consciousness" because I was falling asleep. I answered: "No. It is because he was strangling me." Despite that clear testimony, Ms. Kott later argued to the Court that I had testified I was going in and out of consciousness because I had been drinking heavily. She used that mischaracterization to argue that my memory was unreliable due to alcohol consumption. That was not my testimony, and the transcript reflects that in black and white. Ms. Kott also repeatedly insinuated that I must have had "secret counsel" assisting me behind the scenes because, apparently, the idea that a pro se litigant could effectively litigate a case against experienced attorneys was not something she was prepared to accept. The reality is that I did my own work, learned the law, prepared my own filings, and tried my own case myself. As litigation became increasingly hostile, attorney James Cook began including my abuser directly on communications with me. I ultimately had to tell him myself that the practice was inappropriate and eventually felt the need to bring the issue to the Court's attention. The firm also objected to nearly every one of my motions in limine that were ultimately granted by the Court, including motions barring attempts to use prior sexual encounters as evidence of consent to the assault at issue, and motions barring a contributory negligence defense, implying that a victim has some duty to proactively prevent another person from physically or sexually assaulting them. At another point, an attorney from the firm sent a lengthy argumentative email directly to the judge attempting to litigate issues outside proper procedure, prompting the Court to remind counsel that the parties were not to litigate through email communications. I was genuinely astounded by the level of unprofessionalism I experienced from this firm. Even setting aside my concerns about litigation conduct, I would not hire this firm based on competence alone. Again, this is not sour grapes from a losing party. I won. This review exists because people deserve to know what kind of conduct they may encounter when dealing with this firm.

Hired Mason to be our closing lawyer and he was happy to take an up front payment for the project…read morebut as time progressed he wanted more and more money to do what was already supposed to have been part of the initial deal (writing, reviewing, and sending a contract). Overall I wouldn't recommend Mason Cole as he will just make ambiguous promises and then will ask for more and more money to honor them.

With no money down! After interviewing several attorneys online I settled on Kevin because the very next day he didn't call, he was at my house. A two and a half hour trip!

Receptionists Sara, Rosie, Bernice, and Tammy are also consistently kind and helpful and not rude. Another two attorneys I just spoke to recently, Attorneys Lauren Harris and Margaret Christy, were kind and helpful too. They all get 5 stars. Attorney Lauren Harris also called me after 5 pm like Attorney Laura Gaden Apostol has as well. The lawyers and receptionists who are terribly rude and uncaring take it down several stars, so I had to subtract at least 1 star unfortunately due to them. It is shocking to the body system every time it happens.

I had what seemed to be a reasonable conversation with an attorney. Two days later I was notified the my membership was canceled and that I am banned for life. Nobody will give me an answer as to why I was canceled. I called Legal Shield twice and eventually talked to management and still did not get an answer. One customer service rep told me that he's not supposed to say anything, but more than likely the attorney had me banned. She and I had a normal conversation in a normal tone of voice. I don't know if she violated my confidentiality based on my question and I've been told I'm not allowed to speak to her to find out what she said. This was a very minor legal question and not anything related to criminal proceedings. It was regarding a lawsuit.
