Reviews

• Valerie and her team held my hand every step through the divorce process. Her experience, expertise and understanding for the Lake County Court system is invaluable. She is ethical, honest, levelheaded and fair especially as she guided me through several complex situations. During emergencies her and her team jumped into action, all hands-on deck, and were available outside of working hours. Valerie's passion for her work and her clients is unique in this field. She came highly recommended to me and is respected by her peers. I, 110%, recommend Steiner Howeth Pasquesi & Hatch!!
• Kristin and team guided me through a very contentious divorce with expertise and compassion. Kristin has the very rare ability to remember every detail and also be a big-picture, strategic thinker at the same time. She is very astute at simplifying all of the complex divorce terms and processes, and gives several options along with her recommendation - so I felt both informed and empowered to make the best decisions for my children and myself. She operates with integrity and was an incredible, trustworthy advocate through the most emotional and turbulent time of my life thus far. I highly recommend her! Other team members like Kara, Alana and Nicole were responsive, diligent and helpful.
• When life happens and presents you with requiring an attorney, Steiner Howeth Pasquesi & Hatch are your team. Often this usually means you are faced with a stressful life event, and I have so many wonderful things to say about Valerie and Sonia and the support they provided me through a difficult time. They genuinely cared about my case and me as a person, were incredibly thorough and wanted what’s best for me and worked to attain that outcome. They were always available and went above and beyond my expectations. They were professional, kind, compassionate and always kept me informed, constantly thinking ahead which makes them incredibly prepared to handle any direction the case may go. I certainly felt at ease and incredibly grateful knowing this team of amazing attorneys were looking out for me!
• Katherine Hatch was my attorney. She did a wonderful job handling my case. She presented herself professionally, was very organized, appeared prepared for each court date, kept me informed of every step in the process, explained her approach, and was very patient with me throughout the multiple court dates. I would definitely recommend retaining Clark & Steiner law firm for exceptional representation.
• If I could give no stars I would. Valerie was great at answering my calls and helping with my situation as my daughter GAL in the beginning only as most lawyers do. Her job was to protect my daughter as her GAL. After speaking to my ex, she literally fell in the trap of believing a narcissist who has numerous amount of police records records of physically abusing me. My daughter was in complete distraught every time she was questioned by Val. It’s as if Val wanted my daughter to speak negatively. After some time, Val of course didn’t listen to anything I had to say and gave my ex parenting time. It has now been about a year and a half and he hasn’t fulfilled barely any of his parenting time. I tried to explain to her that this wasn’t going to work and I would be left with his parenting which I am more than happy to do. Anyways, I called her office several times but she wouldn’t call me back. In my opinion, I think she knew she messed up listening to the wrong parent which I warned her about. I am my daughters Mother and I knew what was best for her. Val seems very nice in the beginning but then changes. She didn’t make things better for my daughter, instead gave her father more parenting time which resulted in my daughter crying/upset every time he didn’t show up. I wonder how she sleeps at night. And to answer the response to my review: Val recommended a therapist for my daughter. Of course I got her one. Val was supposed to call and get to the bottom of the truth of how my daughter truly felt without being pressured by Val. She failed to do so and appeared in front of a judge without any information about what happened during weeks of therapy. This wasn’t a matter of choosing sides of either parent but what is best for my child.
