Peoria divorce attorney Jessica America has handled cases in a number of different areas, but when she started developing a family law practice, she realized she had found her calling.
“For me, helping people in the midst of their most difficult times is extremely rewarding,” Ms. America said. “When I realized how much I enjoyed assisting families to navigate through the law, both statutory and case law, and provide them an understanding of how courts typically apply the law to their issues, I knew I found my purpose.”
Divorce is long and arduous. Ms. America does not sugarcoat anything about the process, but she does give her clients her word that they will have a fierce advocate in their corner fighting for their rights.
“Perseverance is not a long race,” she said. “It is many short races one after the other. The same applies to family law litigation. In every case, I encourage my clients that they are not alone in this race.”
Ms. America stresses the importance of patience and persistence when going through divorce and child custody issues. Although nothing about the process is easy, she reassures her clients that they will survive and can thrive after divorce if they stay focused on what matters.
“Most cases aren’t slam dunks, and perseverance is critical,” she said. “I am dedicated to seeing every client all the way to the finish line. Together, we will persevere. Together, we will finish the race.”
“Jessica was very responsive and very timely.”
“Jessica was wonderful and the communication and explanation of the process was fantastic.”
“I am so glad that I have found Cordell & Cordell for my representation. They have exceeded my expectations. I am more than satisfied with the services that I have received.”
”I have already been surprised by the level of knowledge and dedication my attorney has had on my case so there is nothing I can imagine that would improve the service. I would like to take this opportunity to commend my attorney Jessica America on the treatment of my case. I feel extremely confident in entering my final trial with what she has accomplished to date. Based on everything I have witnessed throughout this case, I have no doubt that the outcome would have been very grim for myself if I had someone else leading my case. I want to personally thank the firm and my attorney for your assistance and guidance throughout this entire process.”
”Jessica was simply awesome and I would like to use her again if the need should arise. She preps very well and is good with strategy. I prefer working with female attorneys that are mothers themselves- very pleasurable to speak with but also aggressive in court where they need to be. Your seminars and resources on the web are great too! Carry on your great work for dads!”
“Client commented that attorney was great with communication and responded in a timely manner. It was quality service.”
