About
Michelle's legal practice is concentrated in family law and real estate. She received her Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from North Carolina State University in 2003 and her JD with a Certificate in Real Estate from The John Marshall Law School in 2006. Prior to starting Gehris & Associates, LLC, Michelle was a partner in another local firm. She was the head of the Family Law and Real Estate Departments since 2011. Michelle's goal in starting Gehris & Associates, LLC was to provide an atmosphere for clients to not feel like they are just another file. Prior to joining her prior law firm as an associate in 2007, Michelle prosecuted building code violations with Corporation Counsel for the City of Chicago Building and Land Use Litigation Division. Michelle is a Court appointed mediator and has served on the Mediation Council for McHenry County since 2011. She is also very active in the McHenry County Bar Association, where she served three terms as President of the Family Law Section and is currently serving her second term on the Board of Governors. Michelle is licensed to practice law in the State of Illinois, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, and the United States Supreme Court. Michelle's ability to connect with her clients and at the same time help them through one of the most difficult times of their lives has helped her earn the highest rating of any other Family Law attorney in Crystal Lake on the most comprehensive Attorney review site, Avvo.com. In her free time, Michelle enjoys traveling with her husband.

Michelle is absolutely incredible and has exceeded every expectation/hope I've ever had. She has represented me twice in family law. Divorce and custody. SHE IS WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY! HIRE HER!
To this day, I continue to recommend Michelle to both women and men who are getting divorced. Michelle has been representing me over the last several years. She has been one of the most honest and trustworthy lawyers I have retained. Michelle helped me in my divorce after my other 2 attorney’s declined to help. Michelle ended up prevailing in my divorce trial. Two years later, I again asked Michelle to represent me, this time for child custody. She agreed and I ultimately got custody of my children (which my other attorneys said was nearly impossible for a father to get custody). Michelle was involved in my case every step of the way and would personally respond to my calls, even after hours, keeping me informed about the trail. Michelle personally showed up at every trail date throughout the years. Michelle worked tirelessly on my case which paid off for me in my favor. Its good to know there are people (Lawyers) out there who care and take pride it their work. Thanks Michelle..
Michelle represented me in a child custody case. She was always upfront an honest with me about my case. She worked very hard to help me get custody of my children.
Gehris & Associates is a truly amazing law firm. They worked with us through the process of purchasing our first home and we couldn't be happier. Everyone on their legal team was knowledgeable, communicative, efficient, and pleasant to work with. We really felt like we had someone in our corner every step of the way that was not only reliable but affordable. Will absolutely be utilizing their services again.
Professional, responsive, informative and incredibly supportive and helpful. I couldn't give a higher recommendation!
Michelle represented me in a divorce and child custody matter. What I liked most about her as compared to other attorneys I met with is that she was honest and to the point. She did not make promises that she could not keep, or try to paint a rosy picture. She gave me the realities of divorce. She fought for my rights, and let me know when I was not necessarily being reasonable. Unlike my first attorney, Michelle charged me fairly for the work she performed. She was able to settle my case without a trial (which my other attorney said was unavoidable). My divorce was finalized in a much shorter time than I ever imagined given the way my first attorney handled my case, and I ended up with custody of my child. I would highly recommend Michelle to anybody I know that needs an attorney.
