Bella Maria Rappaport

I interviewed quite a few attorneys before choosing Bella. She always seeks to find solutions and avoid costly litigation. However, if necessary, she is well prepared to litigate for her clients. Bella explains the process and what can reasonably be expected in a settlement. She has high standards and reviews all work that leaves her office. Sadly, this is not the case with other offices. I have been on the receiving end of shoddy work from opposing attorneys that result in delays and higher costs.

I’ve been so lucky to have found Bella she has made a the best of a troubling times.
Bella is someone who you can trust your life to her.
My life was upside down. the day I met her I didn’t want to put off she helped me and friends that work with her in family matters I owe her a vacation somewhere because she is without a doubt not just my attorney but a friend. ..she was and always welcome to my home anytime thank you Bella for keeping me from drowning in un happiness. Hire her I cannot make anyone but there are so many that don’t deliver her promise

Fantastic child custody attorney.

Do not use her!!! Zero stars..Minus Zero if I could. Very Unprofessional..I gave her so much information about my ex-husband during the course of my divorce. She used none of it.It almost felt like she was on his side..Worst Divorce attorney ever!!!

This firm opposes a collaborative approach to 50/50 equal shared parenting in family law. The current legislation in Illinois is ambiguous, litigious and litigation means higher costs.

Bella is not as experienced as she claims. Rather than help with negotiations she hurt them.

Speaking as an objective observer, I would not recommend this attorney. I question her integrity and her respect for the law.
