After meeting with one other lawyer I had the pleasure of sitting with Jan Boback and describing her my scenario. After the first initial meeting I knew she was going to be my lawyer due to my comfort level with her and also her knowledge and foresight of what to expect and some possible outcomes. She went above and beyond her scope of duties, I felt that if I contacted her I would have a response back within the hour and also if I reached out to her she would return my call almost instantly. She is a great lawyer and even a better person who coached me through the entire legal process until we came to an agreement we were extremely happy with. She is extremely professional but also truly cared about my situation and the outcome of our case. I could not have been happier with my selection of representation and have referred her many times when anyone comes asking. I only made it through the custody process with her defending me and instructing me on what to expect. There are a lot of ups and downs during this troubling time, and she was always a phone call away for guidance and support.
I am very happy I was referred to Jan. Jan is kind and helpful. She takes time to listened, explained and clarified. She attends to my needs and concerns. Jan has excellent team members who represented me with my case. I am very pleased with my service. I am so grateful for all she has done for me.
When one finds there soul mate marriage should be an eternity..... Or so I thought.... After 27 years of Wedded bliss I had come to discover my wife was involved with another man. When i confronted her with the steamy details, she became very defensive and within a matter of months had filed for a divorce on the grounds of verbal & physical abuse; she even went so far as to accuse me of having an affair myself. I was utterly crushed on both counts. By mere chance a close acquaintance recommended Jan to me. Jan exhibited remarkable fortitude and perseverance in my case. I was absolutely elated with the outcome. Jan has provided me with a new lease on life.... Now i am free to pursue it.
Mrs Boback was great, the best decision that I have ever made. Her advise and expertise in my court case was unbelievable, she took care of all my needs and was understanding when helping me deal with a tough time. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a great lawyer.
When everything is on the line you want an attorney that you can trust, one that is committed to you and that will advocate and fight for you. After consulting with Jan Boback i knew that i had found the right attorney to fight for my rights if need be.
I had been through 2 previous attorneys in my case that was approaching 3 years. I left both who were dumbfounded and ill-equipped to provide effective legal strategy and forward thinking. Thank God a good friend referred me to Jan who gave me confidence, stuck to our strategy, executed a direct gameplan and came out of a difficult situation with multiple victories. Definitely a must hire for you in your most difficult situations.
I originally approached Ms. Boback's firm because as a father with older children I had gone through a custody battle before and realized that as a father it is tempting to try hiring the people who say they represent father's, write the books, and make it into the news, but the reality is that I didn't want to make a statement I wanted my son safe and preferably with me. When you hire her you are hiring a team that has excellent relationships with the court, they have a great grasp of the law, and in the odd event that something happens to your attorney she transitions a temporary replacement or is even ready to step in herself if need be. However I must stress to all people who are using an attorney for the first time. Make sure you are certain what your goals are, clearly express what you want to your attorney, communicate timely with your attorney, and listen to the advise that you are paying them for. Too often I think people don't think what they want through entirely and couples that have broken up have broken up because of poor communication skills. As a parent going through divorce or custody you should not expect your attorney to hold your hand, but you damned sure better make sure that you can communicate with your attorney better than you did your ex. If you are willing to be patient, listen to your attorneys advice, and lucky to find a team as competent as Janice's you have better chance than most. This is one of the few attorneys I have met that I might support running for judge, but competent enough where I suspect that one day we will find her having built one of the largest smoothest running firms in the Midwest. I worked with Janice and three of her attorneys during this two year process and never failed to be impressed.
I found Jan through Avvo and I am so glad that I did. My divorce was a lengthy process with many intricacies yet Jan and her team made me feel as though my case was always a priority. I appreciated their attention to detail, their professionalism and their consistency. Great firm with a great team of attorneys!
Took care of my divorce very easily. She pushed for completion, instead of allowing delays.
Before I got involved in my current custody case I did extensive research in looking for a family attorney. A family friend who is a corporate attorney suggested Jan, as well as her friend who is a family attorney herself. After I interviewed Jan and told her about my situation I stopped my search. Our very first appearance in front of the judge we got joint custody/parenting schedule (not an exaggeration). Subsenquently each motion there after we filed has gone my way ( daycare choice, passport to travel) and soon to be residential custody. Another BIG DEAL I want to point out there have been 3 instances where I told Jan about some charges that I shouldn't be responsible for and she immediately removed them, no back and forth at all. To say I highly recommend Jan would be an understatement. Extremely thorough and very knowledgable, a pit bull in a skirt or pants suit depending on the day! I can tell you there are more bad attorneys than good in family law. Jan is at the top of the good ones. Do your own due diligence and then meet with Jan, you'll understand my point when you do.
