providing clients with experience, excellence & service

The Law Offices of George M. Sanders, in Chicago, Illinois, focuses on providing legal advice and representation for people with divorce and family law needs. I am attorney George Sanders. I opened the Law Offices of George M. Sanders in 2005. Prior to that, I spent the majority of my 18 year legal career at large and successful commercial litigation law firms in New York and Chicago, which included Dewey, Ballantine in New York City and Holland and Knight in Chicago. I combine my education in economics and finance from St. John's University (where I graduated Summa Cum Laude), my legal education from the University of Chicago Law School, and eighteen years of professional legal experience to offer exceptional legal services.

I invite you to discuss your pending divorce or family law matter with me. Contact my offices to schedule an opportunity to meet. You will find me to be understanding, efficient, and cost-effective. When you hire me to represent you in your family law matter, you are hiring a lawyer with all the experience and training of a big firm attorney. But because I am a solo practitioner, you will work directly with me, an experienced attorney, at competitive rates. Your case will not be passed-off to a paralegal or an associate: I will always remain primarily responsible for your case.

I look forward to helping you with all of your family law matters.

Divorce litigation: My trial litigation experience and education have given me the skills needed to assist clients in a broad range of divorce litigation cases, including complex property valuation whether marital or non-marital and financial issues such as calculating appropriate levels of support and dividing retirement benefits.

Child custody issues: When children are involved, emotions and the concern for the children's well being play an important role in the resolution of the divorce case. I will work with you to resolve child support, visitation and custodial matters.

Post judgment: Settlements aren't always fair and circumstances can change that will make some modifications necessary. I can help you with your post-judgment modifications, including, in appropriate circumstances, changes in spousal maintenance, parenting schedules, custody issues and the issues raised by having to remove a child from the state.

I use technology to make a difference

At the Law Offices of George M. Sanders, I have the technical resources and technical education to provide a full range of services for the most complex divorce issues, including the calculation of child support and maintenance, asset searches, and various forms of computerized research.
