As a former legal secretary of 8 years, I have high expectations when it comes to my own representation. Michelle was my counsel for both a guardianship for an elderly neighbor as well as estate planning for my husband and myself. She knew the law, was familiar with our judge, was professional in both her appearance and communication. She was prepared, prompt and welcoming. I highly recommend SBK law group and specifically Michelle

Michelle was a true professional and was someone I truly trusted through my whole divorce process. I counted on her to do the hard things that I couldn’t do myself in the most difficult time in my life. Divorce in no way is easy especially coming from the side that didn’t want this in any way. Michelle gave me everything I was supposed to get per Illinois law and then some. Most importantly I was never questioning any decisions because everything was explained to me before any papers were signed. I appreciate her and SBK team very much, especially Michelle’s paralegal Marilu which made everything so smooth. Thank you!!
