Blacha Law Office LLC was my second firm I obtained. Walking in everyone was welcoming and very nice. I met with Jackie who made me feel comfortable and at ease about my case. Blacha Law Firm showed that they cared about me and my case. I felt it wasn’t about the money for them; they invest a lot of time and effort in their clients helping them get the best outcome and solutions. I also worked with Erin who was just as amazing. She knew my case, my child’s name and cared to know how things were going. All in all, this was a way better experience and I would absolutely recommend Blacha Law Firm to anyone who needs a great firm to represent them. I’m so glad I chose this firm and I am so appreciative to everyone there.

Great service

Meeting Hannah for the first time lifted a huge weight off my shoulder. She made me feel safe and welcome when listening to the issues that I was dealing with. She is very compassionate, patient and caring. She guided me through my divorce process and made sure I got the best of what I need. She even answered my emails over the weekend.
I am very grateful for her effort and dedication to my case. It has been a stressful journey, but Hannah got me though the divorce quickly. I would not have gotten this far without her knowledge and expertise to get this divorce processed in a matter of few months.

Hannah and her team were wonderful to work with, they always took the time to explain and ensure that I felt comfortable with any decisions that were made. Going through this kind of life experience is very overwhelming, having Hannah handle my case was the best decision I could have made. I can not speak highly enough about her and her team.

I switched from another law firm to Blacha Law and the difference was night and day. Very professional and kept me up to date.
Their online tool is also very helpful.
Highly recommended.

Monika and her entire team was extremely helpful and responsive during my divorce. My case was complicated with an EOP, child custody concerns including consideration of a GAL, and relocation out of state. Not only were they knowledgeable they were compassionate while still being realistic. My outcome was favorable for myself and my child. I would recommend this office to anyone who finds themselves in the situation I was in.

Monika and her staff did a great job handling my Divorce. A special shout out to Hannah McKinney my lawyer. Thank you

The legal services I received from Blacha Law were exemplary. The managing partner, Monica Blacha, is dedicated, professional, calm, and compassionate. Her prior experience as a trial lawyer with a global law firm provides her a level of experience and knowledge that supersedes the experience of most attorneys practicing family law. She offered the most practical cost versus benefit solutions while protecting my parenting rights. The firms paralegal -- Tammy Doody, consistently kept me up to date by communicating issues, legal motions, important dates and documentation requirements. She was familiar with my case and responded to my questions the same day. I would strongly recommend Blacha Law to everyone involved in a divorce.

5 stars...

Monika and her people, especially Hannah, have been great with me. They’re responsive and get things done. They’re absolutely brilliant and sincere. We have won our past 3 court cases recently. I highly recommend Monika and her team.

Monika was great to work with. She handled my custody case and I was finally able to get parenting time with my son. I can't thank her enough for her services.

Great attorneys and staff; highly recommend.

The state did a better job than Monika. Save your money.

I want to thank the Blacha law office for representing me in my divorce they have a great team and they keep you updated about your case and everything that is going on. I want to specially thank my attorney Hannah Kingrey and my paralegal Dominika you all all was the best thru this difficult time for me. I will refer your law firm. Job well done!!!

Monika is a superb We highly recommend her firm

Good experience with this office.

Monica is wonderful and is extremely passionate about her office. Highly recommend!!

Great Lawyer.

Monica, and her staff stands hands and shoulders above the rest. Couldn't be happier with the service received. She truly went beyond the scope of what I feel I paid to help me out and what was in "my best interest". I could tell a night and day difference from my wife's opposing counsel. IT IS HARD to find an attorney to do what is BEST for you, while keeping their interests in mind as well. It is still a business after all. She is one of the few. God bless, and thanks!

I am from the Philadelphia area and Monika firm is doing a great job on my probate case for me. I have family members trying to steal money out of uncle's estate. Jackie is doing a great job. The whole firm is awesome

Great lawyer. Highly recommend.

Knowledgeable, kind and friendly staff. Monica has been extremely helpful through every step in my divorce. She is genuine, and looks out for your best interest and not what makes her or he firm the most money. I could not recommend her enough for anyone who needs representation in family law. She went above and beyond to help, and I could never thank her enough!

I’ve had 2 Attorneys prior to finding Hannah at Blacha Law office, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS LAW FIRM!!! My only regret was NOT finding THEM FIRST!!! Hannah, even though coming in at the end of my divorce was there for me and fixed things my former Attorney messed up!!! Very honest, and NOT ALL ABOUT TAKING ALL YOUR MONEY!!!Thank You Hannah, Shelby, and Blacha Law firm for working with me and going ABOVE & BEYOND for my Daughter and I!!!

I obtained the services of Kathleen Bondi (Kathy) with Blacha Law office just a few months ago. With a Spouse located in another state, Kathy did an exceptional job getting my divorce finalized very quickly, as well as a marital/custody agreement that I was very pleased with. She is extremely knowledgeable on Illinois law and has a very calm demeanor about her which is very helpful during an emotional time. Her paralegal Jayme was nothing short of extraordinary. If you are in search of a top notch firm, Blacha Law will not disappoint.

Being a single-first time mom I had no idea what to even say when trying to contact a lawyer - all I knew was I needed help and Jackie Desana was there for me ! She had all the answers I needed and also ones I didn’t know I needed ! She was understanding and straight forward. There were sometimes when I didn’t know what to think or do and she would always with the upmost respect told me her opinions , good or bad , which I respected and that made this whole process so much easier not just for me but for my daughter . Jackie always made sure anything we decided was 100% in the best interest of her . The Blacha law office was sincerely wonderful to work with and we were very successful in my case ! Everyone was beyond professional and so attentive. I would highly recommend Jackie and the Blacha Law Office to young mothers/fathers who are in need of legal assistance when it come to the most important people in your life .

Monika worked really hard to help me gain custody of my son. I am very grateful for her and her staff.

My experience with Blacha Law office couldn’t have gone more smooth. I was very well taken care of starting with my first phone call. I was given the very best advise from Monika and Jackie every step of the way. I’m very happy I was given her information to help with my divorce process.

Thank you for your professionalism. Their office gets results.

As a father going through a difficult divorce, my utmost concern was protecting my rights with the custody of my children. Monika Blacha, Jackie DeSana and the entire team fought tirelessly to help me achieve this. I could not be more grateful for the work that they did so that we can be a family again.

My primary attorney was Kathleen (Kathy) Bondi. Upon consulting several firms to handle my case, I decided to retain services with Blacha Law Offices as Kathy provided me the best level of comfort and made the best first impression.
After hire, Blacha Law Offices was able to help me seek and complete all of the items I needed and requested to finalize and close the probated estate. I would recommend Blacha Law Office for Estate legal expertise.

We came in wanting a lawyer who could just get us through the process.
Monika made sure our divorce was smooth and quick.

The Blacha Law Office was very professional, knowledgeable and thorough
in the settling of my mother-in-laws estate. Kathy Bondi and the staff did a great job in answering any questions and issues that arose.

I contacted Blacha Law Office to handle my highly contested divorce case. Monica Blacha and Erin Victoria O'Connell from Blacha law office did a great job handling my divorce. My case became increasingly more challenging as it progressed further towards the trial. I would highly recommend the legal service of this law firm. Should the unfortunate need arise, seek out the counsel of Monica Blacha. It was pleasure to work with Blacha Law Office.
Thanks!

Monika is great attorney. Highly recommend her and her office.

Erin and her staff at Blacha Law Office were very clear and upfront through the entire process of my divorce. In the end, the results we set out to achieve were achieved 100%. They worked fast and had great communication with me as the client. Should the unfortunate need arise, I highly recommend using Blacha Law Office.

Blacha Law office was awesome in handling my case. Going through the court process of child support and parenting time with them made it much easier. They always answered all my questions and offered advice when needed. I would definitely recommended them to anyone I know.

The Blacha law firm as a team went above and beyond my expectations and I could not thank them enough. The outcome for me and my daughter was amazing! Thanks to them we are looking forward to a brighter future.

I have previous experience in family court- but this was by far the easiest. Their office is professional and excellent at communicating. I have already recommended them to multiple friends!

Was thoroughly satisfied with this firm and especially Erin O'Connell. After 2yrs and 2 lawyers Blacha Law Office was able to finalize an ongoing custody dispute in my favor. A highly professional crew of folks, would recommend to anyone.

Jackie was there for me every step of the way. She helped me understand the process and what we would be up against. Jackie's honest and straight forward explanations about what to expect made me confident in her abilities. We were very successful in our case. I would highly recommend her!

So grateful for Jackie and her team, helping us navigate through our will process!

Erin and her team did a great job of helping me through my divorce. Although mine wasn't as entangled and messy as some I've heard of, she treated it with the utmost of importance and guided me well throughout the way. I highly recommend them.

I could not be happier with the services provided by Hannah and her team. Hannah is not only a very competent attorney, she also genuinely cares about her clients and it shows in her work and results. Hannah is extremely passionate about her work and it is evident in how she goes above and beyond to serve her clients' and their families' best interests. You can tell that she truly cares about each individual case. Hannah is very result driven and no nonsense while also a realist when it comes to letting you know what is feasible and what is not rather than just billing you countless hours to chase a pipe dream. Very responsive and understanding of the stress that legal proceedings put on her clients emotionally and financially. For the first time ever, I can truly say that I feel that the money I spent on legal representation were well spent and me and my children are better off due to the outcomes that Hannah helped achieve. All around, Hannah was a pleasure to deal with, as much as any litigation can be considered a pleasure, and she provided exactly what she said she would. Hannah acted 100% in he best interest of my children and myself. Billing procedures were stated up front and there were never any of the usual incidents of unreasonable billing what so ever. So refreshing to not have to look for $75.00 "respond to email" charges etc on monthly statement and fully trusting that you were actually paying for legal work and not just "padding" on a statement. This is the first time that I have retained legal services and not walked away with a scummy taste in my mouth and it is truly due to Hannah and her staff being a competent team that truly cares about their clients and will fight for them as well. Cannot express how much of a blessing Hannah and her team have been and I highly recommend them to anyone being in needing family law representation.

I highly recommend Blacha Law Office. I had the honor of having Hannah McKinney as my lawyer. She helped navigate a very complex multi-state divorce case and did an excellent job. Hannah is very passionate, smart and driven and helped keep things cool under difficult circumstances.

Monika and her staff are excellent. I was felt important and knew that my concerns mattered to her. She always listened to me patiently during this very trying time and always did everything she could to help me. Thank you Blacha Law!

I am extremely pleased with how Hannah, Monika and their team handled my case. They put my mind at ease during the whole divorce process. Hannah's work is outstanding, she and her team were able to get me an amazing settlement with my ex wife, they worked on my case for a few months until it was ready for court. They updated me with everything as it happened, and kept my personal attorney fees very low and reasonable. I would highly recommend Hannah McKinney to anyone as their attorney.

I am so happy I chose Blacha Law Firm for my divorce. Hannah my attorney was so understanding and knowledgeable during the whole divorce process. When I called or emailed her she always got back to me same day or early the next day. I would highly recommend her as your attorney. Hannah McKinney- Kingrey is awesome.

I have been with Blacha Law since my divorce in 2014. The firm was outstanding and very proactive during my divorce and finalized everything as quick as possible. This kept my expense as low as possible, as they looked out for my best interest in a difficult time.

Since then i have had a a few isolated issues in Kendall county with my ex-wife. I have been very fortunate to of had Hannah McKinney represent me in the after math. If you're looking for a fireball and a lawyer that truly has your back in Kendall county i strongly suggest you call and ask for Hannah. She will fight for your rights and dig deep to assist you any way she can.

Monika and her entire team at the Blacha Law Office operate with the highest level of professionalism. The attorneys and staff are very knowledgeable, compassionate and caring. Hannah Kingrey is an exceptional attorney, who was always accessible and extremely responsive throughout my divorce case. Hannah always kept me up to date on new developments, explained each step of the process, and ensured all my questions were answered. Hannah is very dedicated and passionate about providing her clients with thoughtful recommendations for the best possible outcomes/interests of her clients. Hannah’s level of professionalism and expertise was top notch. Thank you Hannah! I highly recommend Blacha Law Office to anyone in need of an exceptional legal team.

THANK GOD it's over. My lawyer Hannah was the absolute best. Her team Danielle and Victoria made this divorce as painless as possible. I was married to a narcissist for 7 years. My lawyer and her team even had to endure some of his BS. For that I will always be sorry, but they handled that and everything else like a pro! I thank god I came across their information and appreciate everything they have done for me!!

Monika and her team are absolutely exceptional. I dealt with one of the worst divorces I’ve ever read about. Ex tried to take kids and ruin me for good. Through her thoughtful and caring recommendations and handling of my case I now have joint custody of my kids and a fair settlement on all finances. I really mean it when I say this was one of the worst. My name was dragged through the mud to every authority involved in this case regarding custody. The lies were insurmountable, and if it wasn’t for Monika’s calm demeanor and overwhelming amount of knowledge I never would have had a shot a joint custody. In the end, we conquered all of my Ex’s lies and brought them to everyone’s attention. Suddenly my Ex’s credibility was completely shot due to Monika’s ability to point out the obvious facts and calmly deliver her defense. I would strongly recommend Monika to anyone in a divorce and you can feel extremely confident that your case is being held with the utmost care by her and her staff.

Great team of responsible lawyers and staff. What I appreciate most about this office was their honesty and forthright advise.

Nice people

Monika and her staff helped me to win custody of my children. I will be forever grateful.

The firm made it super easy to deal with our affairs and our will. Putting the final touches on our last wishes made it easy to forget once it was done. I'm confident in these people and have suggested them to family. Thanks guys!

Blacha Law Office was very helpful and knowledgeable when assisting us put together our will. They made the process so easy and it helped us realize where the holes were in planning for our future. The paperwork format was easy, I received timely responses to my questions, and great service from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Blacha Law has helped our family tremendously with setting up a will! Fast, easy and we love everyone who works in the office! Thanks so much for making this an easy and quick process!!

Blacha law was very comprehensive and thorough with my parenting agreement. As someone who was leery of the process, they have taken care of me from start to "finish" without batting an eye and I couldn't be happier with the solution negotiated on my behalf. There are a lot of law firms to choose from and I believe I made the right choice for my situation.

Great Experience!

Blacha Law Office was recommended to me by a friend and they did not disappoint. They are extremely professional and provided personalized services unique to my situation and needs.

The support staff is friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful. They are an office that works together and delivers the results you want.

I would highly recommend Attorney Monika Blacha and her team !

The legal team at Blacha Law Office bring the right blend of expertise, professionalism and personal attention to family law. I think everyone who has gone through a divorce or custody battle will agree that the entire process is so much easier when you have a knowledgeable and caring attorney on your side, and in this, Ms. Blacha and her staff go above and beyond. I firmly believe that these people are the best in the business; not only is Ms. Blacha a rock star in the courtroom, but she and her team excel at staying in communication with and giving them the best recommendation for, the client, even if that course of action is not the most lucrative. The staff are friendly and helpful, and Ms. Blacha is just as much a pleasure to work with. My only regret in working with them is that I did not find out about Blacha Law Office sooner.

Monika blacha and her entire staff is so professional and respectful. She is highly detail oriented, straightforward ,has firm voice and sharp wisdom to tackle the complicated oppositions. She always make sure that I understand the process.The entire staff of blacha law office is instantly available for any concern and questions throughout the case. I would highly recommend Ms.Blacha.

Monika and her staff helped me navigate through a difficult situation. She and her staff were very professional and respectful. We even shared a few laughs despite the serious circumstances. I felt she had my best interests in mind, and I'm very satisfied with the results. I would absolutely use this law office again (...but hope to not have to).

I rarely post reviews but I feel that this office really deserves it. I hired Monika after I let my previous attorney go. The experience with this office as like night and day to my previous lawyer. Monika was very detailed and always explained each step of my divorce to me and answered all of my questions. She really fought for me in court but was also very honest with me about whether we had a good case or a bad one. She was up front when she thought that I would not win a certain point and I really appreciated that. I knew what was going to happen even before it did. She was also very familiar with the judge we had and knew his particular likings and dislikings which I felt really helped me. I would highly recommend Monika to anyone going through a divorce.

Monika and her staff handled my divorce. I found the whole process much less stressful than I ever anticipated and that was mostly because of how responsive and caring this office was in answering my questions and always keeping me up to date.

This was the only lawyer I have ever worked with that seemed to care genuinely about my case. My divorce was definitely a give and take but I always felt as though my lawyer was on my side.

Blacha Law Office try to rip me off by extending/adding unnecessarily attorney fees time. The law office will take two sides "YOUR SIDE and your MONEY SIDE"!

Monika and her team have handled an incredibly complicated custody case for my family. They are experts who listen to their clients and will always keep you updated. And they are large enough to cover unexpected runs to court.

The best thing is to see their written and trial presentations. They cover all the bases powerfully and as efficiently as possible.

I fully recommend Monika and her growing team.

I liked working with the Blacha Law Office; they are very responsive and caring about the clients they serve.

I hired Monika for a post decree issue regarding maintenance from my ex. She went above and beyond my expectations. Not only was she always there to answer all of my questions and concerns, she made sure I understood the process every step of the way. Monika truly cares about her clients and goes out of her way to accommodate their busy schedules. I am truly grateful I had Monika as my attorney. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome!

I was very pleased with Monika Blacha and her entire staff. Monika was very accessible, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend this firm to all my friends and relatives.
