James Kelly Law Firm

Do not recommend if working on an estate case. We were recommended to work with one lawyer and he ended up leaving the law firm. We stayed as Zoe who took over was great at the beginning but then we ended up getting tossed around to multiple different people. Paid over 2,000 for them to argue with us instead of the estate. Save your money and go somewhere else.

My interactions with Marilyn Dye in a legal capacity have been highly favorable! I have found her to be exceptionally well-informed, meticulous, compassionate, and candid. She possesses a deep understanding of her fields and takes the time to attentively listen to her clients. To ensure the well-being of her clients, she strives to comprehensively clarify their legal circumstances. Moreover, in cases where a client's personal concerns and perceived needs may not align with legal realities, Marilyn is dedicated to assisting her clients in grasping their situation and proposing optimal solutions. Anyone seeking legal representation would be wise to engage Marilyn as their attorney!

I absolutely regret hiring this law firm. We met with attorney Zoe in there Galesburg office for a workmans comp case and sat for a FREE consultation. She gladly took our $1500 to retain their firm and immediately got to working on our case which was what we were expecting however from the very beginning we noticed that communication was not the best and the receptionist in the galesburg office was extremely rude. Every step of the way the attorneys told us what they thought would be in our best interest to protect our exposure and the interest of our business and I believed that was true. Fast forward to yesterday I called the Peoria office to get an update on the case since the last time we spoke with Zoe was on Jan 9th. Was told by a gentleman that someone would send us an email. Later

Would not recommend. While shopping for lawyers I spoke with them two times to discuss a potential property line case I may have had (Wasn't sure. Hence the call to the lawyer). Once to see if that was something they even handled and the second to give a more detailed breakdown and see how confident they felt and potentially move forward with handling my case. Gave my situation to the guy over the phone and updated him on the whole matter. At the end of my spiel I asked "What do we think and what are my options?" Guy responds with "Well I think you're looking for free advice". I let it slide and said "No. I'm not." Guy responds again with "Well you're not looking for free advice but you're looking for free advice, right." Didn't need to hear anymore. We do real estate for a living and

My attorney was absolutely amazing! Attorney Dye was kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. It's amazing how much she cares about her clients. Without a doubt I will continue my relationship with this firm and her. Thank you so much for everything!
