Since hiring Jill as my attorney, she has displayed attention to the numerous intricacies within my high conflict custody case. She quickly became familiar with all the moving parts and players that have been introduced over a lengthy period of time. She acclimated herself at a fast pace enabling her the ability to manage multiple tasks relating to further discovery. She was responsive, acting with firm resolve within a timely fashion, as when she accepted my case, it was heading in a certain direction. Jill utilized her knowledge and wealth of experience in family law to better prepare me than any other attorney I have hired since separating and divorcing over 8 years ago. Jill prepared and enabled me to act in a manner resulting in gaining ground within the court, shedding light on what was being overshadowed by the use of manipulation and abuse on behalf of my ex. She listened to my concerns and further validated their existence. She looked at all angles, while remaining focused on the big picture. Jill kept my fears in check. She prioritized what info/material will best serve our purpose and was firm in regards to when the best time was to utilize them. Jill helped discard info that was clouding my vision and educated me on where to apply my energies, creating the opportunity for making the greatest impact for the results we were seeking. She assisted in helping me to discard what was weighing me down from being exposed to the family court system for almost a decade without resolve. She offered advisement when needed. Her expertise within the realm of family law is unparalleled to ALL others I have been in contact with over the past 8 years! She became my guide and offered direction and hope when the family court system has done nothing but disappoint, while failing both myself and my children. Jill strategically advised what I should concentrate on and what I should let go. She has always made herself both available by phone, as well as by person, whenever needed. She has proven over time that she is committed to going the distance and I honestly feel she cares for the well being of my children. For this, I am and will be forever grateful. If you are currently seeking an attorney who will best represent you and/or your children's best interest...and have been a victim within the family court system...feeling discouraged and defeated...I highly recommend Jill for the job! She will NOT disappoint!

I am beyond happy with Jill. She truly listened to what was happening & dug into the details of my custody situation. She cared, she took the time, she responded to me in a timely fashion, and was very organized. It was a complex situation & she handled it well & with professionalism! I would recommend her for anyone’s custody needs!

We have been dealing with more than one case with my 2 kids. Jill and her law firm never disappoint and always represent people they see as the more fit parents. I will never change lawyers. My first battle was before I knew Jill and the Gilliland Vanasdale law firm. I had a bad experience prior. Lies and deceit from my ex attempting to alienate our children from me until my wife helped me get through it with this amazing law firm. Jill has represented myself a couple times and really knows her cases and the law well. She was able to uncover all the lies and poor decisions my ex had made and brought justice to my family. Amazing lawyer!

Attorney Sinatra provided invaluable guidance and expertise to help us navigate the justice system. We couldn't have been more pleased with the results.

Jill, has the innate talent to navigate a highly contentious custody situation with an unreasonable ex who refused to any level of cooperation. She is highly effective in your time of need. She is extraordinarily objective in an emotional situation. I highly recommend her for both her knowledge and ethical standards.

If you are going to go through the worst part of your life you're going to want Jill Sinatra on your side. She is without a doubt one the best parts of one of the worst parts of my life. She treated even the seemingly small and insignificant details of my case with the importance and respect I hoped for. She made sure my interests were protected throughout the entire case. ie; custody; support; and MSA.

Ms. Sinatra's attorney-client privilege only extended to one member of our family; however, her clinical professionalism tempered by genuine empathy saw many more through a very dark time. Any prospective client is guaranteed a highly organized; extremely personable; aggressive litigator who is going to FIGHT for your best interests. The downside to hiring such a fantastic attorney is that others will undoubtedly be seeking her representation as well. Ms. Sinatra did her best to return any calls or e-mails ASAP (2-3 Days usually). As "newbies" to any aspect of the judicial system, we wanted "real time" answers. 30 minutes with no response can seem like an eternity in the face of crisis. This is a wholly unfair, and selfish, burden we internally placed upon Jill's time and expertise. In the end, there is zero doubt she provided comprehensive, informed counsel--and we are eternally grateful!

Before I talk about Jill, let me briefly explain what it's like to find a lawyer in this city. PennDot was going to suspend my license because of paperwork mishaps on their part, so I called several traffic lawyers in the area for help. For most of the lawyers mentioned online, the phone numbers I dialed didn't even lead me to the attorney, they led me to a paralegal who basically knew, most of the time, very little about law compared to an actual attorney, who refused to speak with me. For one of the lawyers, his assistant picked up and gave me this glossed over car salesman-type pitch about how he was going to make all my traffic problems go away, and then in an effort to pressure me into signing up with his firm, he offered to cut $500 from the quoted price if I hand over my credit card information during the phone call right then and there. Ridiculous. He didn't even hear or fully understand the whole case. Then I called Jill Sinatra's office, and I was surprised to actually hear an attorney pick up, especially at 5 30 pm. She heard about my problem, and I was surprised to hear her talk to me like a human being, not like I was another traffic case. She was clearly knowledgeable enough to explain, as an attorney should, the best and worst case scenarios, and went into them in further detail when I met her at her office. She was very open to meeting, most lawyers in Pittsburgh would not actually meet with me when I asked about scheduling a meeting (asked their paralegals, that was), apparently the rest of them were too busy to talk face to face with someone who's possibly paying well well over $1000. Jill was personable, understanding, accommodating (managed to switch court dates around my vacation schedule which, as a physician, is quite precious to me), and was able to clear me of the charges for an overall price that was lower than that of her un-esteemed colleagues. If you require the services of an attorney and you are in Pittsburgh, any street-smart person would shop around. You may shop around if you wish, or you may follow the advice in this review. Either way, you're going to end up picking this woman to defend you. I'm handing her business cards to all my physician colleagues and staff at the hospital and at the clinic where I work. If I ever get into any sort of legal trouble again (which hopefully won't happen any time soon), I'm calling Jill Sinatra.

First and for most I couldn't be more happier Jill is my attorney. I found Jill through a friend of mine who highly recommended her and I am glad she was, and still will be my attorney. Jill is very honest and tells it like it is. She has always made me feel better before and after hearings she had won for me. She never got annoyed at me for my many phone calls and emails (believe me there were a lot) and she always answered my questions in a timely fashion. She is very passionate about what she does as you can tell when you meet her off the bat. I would highly recommend Jill as your attorney, her rates are reasonable too, believe me you won't be sorry you did. Jill is one if the best Lawyers to higher and you won't be sorry.i can honestly say I have not one negative thing to say about Jill. I will always be great full for her and the work and helping me in really tough times when I needed an honest attorney.

Was told the divorce was an easy one, should take 90 days. At the fifth month had to call and ask what’s the problem. Was told “a big case” came up. So if that’s the issue why not let someone else finish the final paper work. Was told give me 2 more weeks. A month goes by. My X & I said she is just money hungry. Money I can’t get back. If you have a mutual, easy non contesting divorce, Jill Sintra is NOT for you.
