"It was a pleasure working with Attorney Lori as she defended my husband. She made sure to advocate for my husband rights throughout the process. She also kept us informed about the law and explained how she would proceed. I felt that she took the time and effort for my husband case and did not let anything interfere with her goal. We WON and it was a lengthy process because they kept prolonging it with excuses but she never gave up on my husband or the case if that is not worth every dollar what is? Lori loves the law and she deserves an Award for her efforts and diligence in the process! Best defense attorney in Chicago!"

"She is by far the greatest Attorney you could ever want. I strongly recommend that you hire her. Her constant 5 star reviews is exactly what you need in an Attorney. I got everything that I wanted because of her. If you're looking for a smart, experienced, and passionate about winning in an Attorney, then she is the one for you. Don't wait till the opposing party gets her, you won't want to go against her. Act now and contact her, trust me you won't regret it!"
