I hired Juli for a divorce from a 9 year marriage. The divorce was horrible, my ex was completely unreasonable, and the whole process was incredibly complicated with kids, custody and supervision issues, and financial problems. Juli was always available to answer my questions, and was super knowledgeable. She was up front and honest about prospects, and not afraid to tell me what I wanted or was doing was unrealistic or damaging to the case. She also was very personable. You could really tell that she cared on a personal level about my situation and the kids and myself.
Juli is an exceptional person and one of the most experienced and effective family lawyers in the state. She has assisted me in a post-decree matter several times over the course of 12 years. Each time, she took the time to truly understand the issue, she paid attention to what I, the client, wanted, and she was terrific about keeping me up to speed about what was happening in court. Her firm is amazing and the paralegals and support staff there make it a priority to keep clients connected. There is no one else in the state that I would recommend for family law issues. Juli truly understand the client's needs, personally AND professionally. Working in the legal field myself, I can honestly say that lawyers with her combination of client compassion and expertise are very rare. She is as good as it gets.
I felt that Ms. Gumina provided a comforting level of attentiveness and observation toward details of my case at our initial consultation. I had used her for a parentage case file out of state. I felt that I was dealing with someone who sypathised with my challenges. I was given a short, yet realistic, description of potential outcomes and mitigating circumstances oit side of our control. She was highly efficient with her time and my own. I was given direction to work with from a referral, which I will certainly pass along.
Juli Gumina and the employees at Sullivan Taylor & Gumina are highly professional and knowledgable lawyers. Juli always made sure that my husband and I were always updated on any and all developments of our partition suit. At the same time, Juli strived to ensure that my husband and I received what we deserved. Juli and her team worked very hard on our case, calling us after work hours and even on the weekends. Juli Gumina has a wonderful personality and is great to work with. She always made sure that we were comfortable with each and every step that was taken during our lawsuit. Juli has a very good heart and was always there for my husband and I through this VERY difficult and emotional situation. She always has a great smile and a positive attitude to go with it. Juli and her staff not only have the highest level of respect for the law, but also for their clients. She was there to support us, guide us, and help us no matter what. It was an absolute pleasure working with Juli and the ST&G team. I would never go anywhere else! THANK YOU JULI!
I hired Juli to represent me in my divorce. Juli was responsive to my objectives and goals and got my divorce finished without delay.
I sought the services of Juli Gumina almost 4 years ago when I needed to file a petition for visitation for my daughter. Throughout the years Juli helped me face challenges with the court system, DCFS and law enforcement to name a few. I overcame those challenges with Juli's help. Juli went up against 10+ lawyers and was able to win my battle for joint custody and finally, just recently, sole custody of my daughter. None of this would've been possible without her dedication and commitment. I highly recommend Juli Gumina. Thank you so much for all your help.
Juli is the attorney you want if you are looking for your case to be handled quickly and fairly. She doesn't create problems or waste her client's money or time. My divorce was handled in 3 months and my ex-husband and I are on better terms than ever.
I hired Juli Gumina for my divorce. Marriage was only 2.5 years at the time but did not trust the family and thought they may try someting, which they did. I wanted to make sure I had someone who would fight for my rights. I knew Maureen Suliivan-Taylor years ago and knew her reputation to be strong in DuPage. Juli had been recommended by a good friend. The two pieces of information gave me confidence in hiring Juli. She was honest, clear on issues and utilized information provided to its fullest in fighting for me. Only beef had to do with some responsiveness to emails. Otherwise, AWESOME in handing the other attorney, extremly fair in billing and made me feel at ease in court. Juli's caring demeanor and support really helped me get through a trying time after my husband left me.
If you are looking for an attorney that has a firm grasp on the law and and is honest about what you can expect she is the attorney for you. If you are looking for someone to tell you what you want to hear, file unnecessary paperwork and run up your bills only to lose in court than you need to use my ex's attorney. Juli Gumina was spot on before pretrial,spot on during the trial, and the judge ruled exactly where Juli had thought he would since day one. She's brilliant, avoids unneccesary drama, but was my strongest advocate.
Juli Gumina handled my divorce after a long-term marriage. The whole divorce process was overwhelming and new to me. Juli explained everything carefully to me. She was always professional and courteous. She fought for a fair settlement for me. She did not let me just walk away in frustration at the long process (which I wanted to do many times). Instead, Juli advocated for an equitable resolution all the while representing me with the highest dregree of integrity. I would not have stayed with a lawyer who "played dirty" or tried to demand anything more than a fair distribution of assets. Juli consistently acted in my best interests and within the bounds of high ethical standards. In addition, the members of the office staff at Sullivan, Taylor, & Gumina were OUTSTANDING to work with! They were always helpful and professional when I needed a quick question answered or at times when I felt frustrated/overwhlemed by the process. This is a great group of people who helped me through a very difficult time in my life. I would highly recommend Juli Gumina to anyone who is facing the divorce process.
