About
My name is Lena Goretsky Winters and I am the principal of Winters Family Law Firm where I practice family law exclusively. I am also an Adjunct Professor at Northwestern University School of Law, where I teach Introduction to Trial Advocacy at the Bartlit Center for Trial Advocacy http://www.law.northwestern.edu/legalclinic/bartlit/ I instruct Northwestern JD and LLM students from all over the world how to present a case in the most effective manner to a judge or a jury in an American courtroom. Prior to founding Winters Family Law Firm and becoming an adjunct professor, I practiced family law and criminal defense law in Chicago’s premiere law firms. I have become familiar with state and federal courts and have successfully litigated custody disputes, high stakes divorce cases and white color criminal cases in front of judges and juries. I graduated from Northwestern University School of law in 2003 and received a Masters degree in Linguistics from Northwestern University in 2000. I am originally from Kiev, Ukraine and I am fluent in Russian and have a good command of Spanish.

Reviews
Lena is always one step ahead of the game. Just when I thought we hit a wall she finds a way through. She amazes me with her responses and approaches. She is always on top of things.
Lena is whip smart and really knows the law. She thinks of any and all scenarios before they even occurred to me. She is very protective of her clients and doesn't try to jack up the bill (like some big name attorneies have done). She worked on a post divorce matter for me, but I wish I had used her all along. Highly, highly recommend her.
