Gemma Allen and Todd Glassman are THE legal team to have. I was in an urgent situation in which my previous lawyer dropped my case 1 month out from trial where my ex was fighting me for sole custody of our son on unsubstantiated and false grounds. These two saved my case, my son, and our time. I can say with certainty we would not have had the positive outcome we did, had they not been my representation. Gemma is a brilliant, honest lawyer who is an expert in divorce and family law. Todd is equally an expert and an excellent co-lead. Illinois is known as one of the worst states to get or be divorced in, and this team seamlessly navigates a broken system. I am forever grateful for the quick and diligent work Gemma and Todd did to salvage my case and to settle with an outcome far better than I ever imagined. Do not let one negative review on this site deter you from exploring this team as your legal representation. They are truly the best of the best - you will not find better, more honest representation elsewhere!!

My experience was similar to the other posting on this site and so I think it is worth posting since there appears to be a pattern. Gemma Allen also quit on me while I was petitioning for a change in a custody order. She really was not able to influence the situation in any way and after 8 months, she told me we needed a trial. I asked her to withdraw my petition and she quit!
