About
I am originally from Texas. I have practiced since 2003, working to seek expeditious justice for my clients. I will not give you an unrealistic outcome in your case, and I will try to seek the best resolution possible for you and your family. I realize that some former clients have left negative reviews. I hate losing, and unfortunately, I am not allowed per the ethics rules to respond to such reviews. I feel, however, my positive reviews speak more clearly about the quality of work I offer, as well as the outcomes. I cannot guarantee your outcome, however. I offer a free consultation over the phone. You will have to, however, answer some questions, so we can ensure it is a type of case we are taking in and we do not have a conflict. I take payments from my clients because I know what it feels like to work for my living.

The Illinois Appellate Court appeals brief that was written for us is an outstanding piece of craftsmanship. Although the courts did not rule in our favor it was not because of our lawyer. If services are needed I will definitely call again.
Amanda Bradley-Veretthelped me in my divorce. She was very professional and extremely helpful. Amanda has gone above and beyond in my divorce case to make sure I was satisfied in her decision making. At times when I felt giving up and throwing in the towel, Amanda showed compassion and comfort in my situation. Amanda showed me that I was doing the right thing in fighting for the custody of my children.
Amanda Bradley-Verett helped my husband with issues regarding family matters. She was very professional and extremely helpful with all of our (many) issues! She actually resolved the matter exactly as we had hoped that it could be done, and continues to be there for us for any questions or concerns we have now that our matter has been resolved. I would highly recommend her to anyone!
I was very scared and confused when my x took me to court to have him and his new wife granted sole custody of our son and daughter. From the beginning Amanda, respected me and how this legal ordeal was affecting us. We became close and I could trust her integrity, professionalism, knowledge and skill of the legal system, and her commitment to do her absolute best for the sake of my children. When dealing with an x who has lost sight of everything except his own rage, the legal process is nothing less than a nightmare. Amanda never lost hope or her focus to keep my children safe. Because of her, I maintained full custody of both children. She is an excellent attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Amanda has went way above and beyond in my case. Her compassion, empathy, and willingness to listen are just a few of her awesome qualities. When it comes to family issues she is not afraid to get in there and dig in and she is in it for the long haul.
I filed my divorce pro se and needed to retain a lawyer fairly quickly. Out of all of the lawyers I call Amanda was very straight forward and up front about the cost and her work ethic. She explained the whole process to me and what to expect. Even when I felt like giving up the fight she pull me back in an represented me very well during my case. She tried her best to settle my divorce out of court but because my ex husband was unwilling to compromise we did have to go to court. Amanda, prepared me for court and was very organized. She had all exhibits and documentation in order. In the end the judge ruled in my favor. I appreciate what Amanda did for me and my kids. If I know anyone who may need representation of a divorce lawyer I have no problems referring them to her. Thanks Amanda
Amanda is an extremely knowledgeable and experienced lawyer. She was straightforward and knew how to address my concerns and guide my case. I would highly recommend her for any family law case.
I was looking for an attorney that knew and understood the law, would be honest with me and was able to stand up for me (and them self) and of course was priced within reason. In Amanda, I found all of these things. From our very first meeting I knew she was the right attorney for me, she made me her only concern during the meeting, listened intently and asked all the right questions. I was very much at ease with her from day one. I told her that I wanted the process to be handled in a very civil manner and she did just that. She handled my case in a very professional manner at all times and communicated well with me and the opposing attorney. Amanda delivered all that she said she would and I would recommend her with no hesitation.
As someone who had previously worked with two of the more prominent family lawyers in the area, I found myself completely dissatisfied and knew I had to retain new legal counsel. I was going through an uncivilized, bitter, and extremely lengthy divorce and my ex's lawyer is an unethical, hits-below-the-belt type of attorney and none of my other lawyers would consider challenging this particular individual. My divorce was not easy, but I had it settled in 2001, after a year and a half. However, due to the fact my ex loves going to court on a fairly consistent basis, I found myself still faced with unsettled issues involving child custody/visitation/support. In approximately late 2005, after searching in vain for a good family lawyer,I grew very disgruntled and frustrated. However, Amanda came highly recommended to me from another lawyer I was familiar with, and I arranged for a consultation. After the initial consultation, I was immediately impressed by her frankness, honesty and professionalism. She advised me of what could/could not happen with my case, which my other lawyers had never been so upfront with me about in the past. She was always prepared, more than fair on her prices given the magnitude of my case and how complicated things had gotten due to the incompetence and ineffective representation of my previous lawyers. I knew in her, I had a strong and competent lawyer who would never fail me in any situation. She did not let my ex's attorney intimidate her, she didn't back down from any challenges that arose in my case and she was able to help me in a professional, as well as personal capacity. If you want someone who will protect your children, defend you in court and give you the best and most realistic outcome in your case, then I cannot recommend her highly enough. She won't make empty promises or drag out your court case to line her own pockets like some family/divorce lawyers do. Amanda does her best to handle things in an efficient manner and doesn't waste her time or yours. Her paralegal was always always so pleasant and readily available to answer my calls and Amanda was always prompt in getting back with me if I had any questions or issues which required attention. Thank you Amanda, without you, I don't think I would have made it through the past 3 1/2 years. I owe you so much! I would strongly recommend that anyone in need of a skilled, experienced, compassionate and ethical family lawyer, to look no further than Amanda Verett, because she is one of the best I've have ever had the privilege to work with and when going through divorce/family issues, someone like her is very hard to come by.
Amanda is very knowledgeable and thorough in her work. She researches and researches until she makes sure your case is covered in its entirety. She always returns her calls. She keeps you informed as to what is brewing or about to brew in your case. She is to the point and does not sugar coat anything. When I was introduced to her by another attorney I did not know what to expect but working with her has been a great experience. Thank you, Amanda and her secretary!
