I hired Ashley D. Wood at Katz & Stefani to represent me in my divorce, which involved complex asset division and a contested parenting plan. From our first consultation, Ashley demonstrated a deep understanding of Illinois family law and a strategic approach. Her recognition by Best Lawyers since 2021 was evident in her meticulous preparation and negotiation skills. She was particularly adept at explaining the legal nuances of our financial disclosures, which gave me confidence during a stressful time. Ashley’s professionalism and genuine empathy made a difficult process more manageable. The only reason I’m not giving five stars is that during particularly busy periods, there were a few instances where email responses took longer than expected, though her paralegal was always good about providing status updates. Overall, I felt well-represented and would recommend her for family law matters in Chicago.
