Biography

The Law Offices of Sheryl Rae Ghezzi was established in 1986. General litigation developed into a boutique practice concentrating in Family Law and Estate Plannning. Focus Forward strategies are utilized to competently address the unique personal issues involving divorce, children,child custody, and individual estate directives. I support my Clients as they go through the process of transitioning their lives and assist them in Focusing Forward as a strategy to assist them in resolving the emotional stresses inherent in family law legal issues. I have lectured in the areas of child custody, family law, the divorce process and legal ethics for the National Business Institute, the Illinois State Bar Association and The Chicago Bar Association. Practice areas: Divorce, Child Custody, Visitation, Spousal Support, Pre-Divorce Strategic Planning, Pre-Nuptial Agreements, Wills, Trusts, and General Practice Issues. As experience has given me an extensive and highly qualified legal referral base, I invite all inquiries to determine how to best address a Client's legal needs.
