Theresa and her team were amazing to work with. During a very difficult time, Theresa was very knowledgeable, understanding and caring by guiding me through the collaborative divorce process. Theresa gave me very good, fair advice every step of the way. I felt like I was in very good hands and would highly recommend Theresa and Trinity Law for anyone looking for the collaborative divorce process. Thank you Theresa!

I worked with Theresa Beran Kulat and the Trinity Family Law team to complete my divorce in less than one year. I had hope to use the Collaborative process but, in the end, followed a non-adversarial, uncontested approach. Theresa clearly explained what a judge would allow in the asset division and where there was room to negotiate. I appreciated her approach in being honest in presenting the facts and data but negotiated hard for the best settlement. When obstacles were encountered Theresa presented me with different approaches to deal with the barrier. What initially sold me on Theresa was the upfront time she spent explaining the process, even before I retained her. That was very helpful in my selection of an attorney versus other approaches, such as, litigation or DIY divorce. In my professional career I have work with many corporate attorneys and learned quickly divorce attorneys do not have the same sense of urgency and are extremely slow. Theresa and the TFL team did an extremely great job of keeping the case moving forward, following up on open items and keeping me updated along the way. Great! I appreciated being billed monthly and not getting surprised late in the case. The Trinity Family Law billing and payment process works like clockwork. Also, the TFL team was very helpful in the collection of my documents and modeling different settlements. I found the team to be very professional and easy to work with throughout the process. I would highly recommend Theresa and Trinity Family Law for a Collaborative or uncontested divorce.

Theresa was highly engaged in the process & did a fantastic job explaining everything so we knew what our options were from day 1. I appreciated her willingness to give us time to do what we needed to in order to establish a workable plan for our family. She made recommendations for what worked best for us, but also listened when we had questions or concerns.

Theresa was cordial and very professional. She does not waste your time. She gave me analysis of what she sees happening when couples don’t agree to have a prenup and how prenup has saved couple. One thing I like about her is her prenup agreement are rewritten like a love letter but also strong to cover contractually agreed terminology by law. She is thorough but a little expensive that what I expected. Hence my 4 stars. I would recommend her firm to any engaged couple.

I would highly recommend Theresa and her firm for mediation. Divorce is overwhelming both financially and emotionally and Theresa helped alleviate both. We had just signed with Theresa in Feb 2020 before Pandemic quarantine. She remained in communication with us via email and once quarantine was lifted, in Illinois at end of May, we met with Theresa in person. This was so helpful and needed in our process. We continued to meet from June through October with much success. We turned our work with her over to our attorneys. Yet, in February we needed to continue discussions and Theresa was available and ever helpful again. She has a wonderful way of listening to both sides, creating a safe space for all and presenting many options. She helped support us to maintain a healthy communication relationship that will continue to guide us with our young adult children and moving forward. All you have to do is meet with Theresa and you will know she is the right person to support you through a challenging and difficult life transition.

Divorce is awful even when it is the best for everyone involved. Theresa made the process as smooth as possible. She was always supportive, knowledgeable, and did all she could to keep the process moving. We proceeded with the collaborative process. At times the process felt very uncollaborative, though Theresa kept the process moving and continually reiterated the premise of the model when things veered. She kept disputes calm and on point. I did several consultations with other lawyers and selected Theresa after our consult when it was clear her practice matches the philosophy she presents on her website. I am grateful to have had her both lead but also walk beside me during such a difficult journey. I would highly recommend.

I absolutely recommend Theresa. She is an experienced attorney who explains the process thoroughly and communicates clearly and effectively. I always felt like she “had my back”, and worked to make the divorce process as painless as possible. In addition, her staff were pleasant and easy to work with.

Theresa is an outstanding lawyer. She was always available to talk and counseled me throughout my divorce proceedings. Theresa always had my best interests in mind. I would enthusiastically recommend Theresa if you're in need of an attorney.

Both Theresa & Yvonne were extremely patient & helpful throughout my divorce process. I always felt heard; never rushed; & comfortable in asking or discussing various points in my case. I never felt that anything was being delayed or rushed. Everything proceeded in a comfortable & reasonable pace. I believe Theresa was the best option for me & my case.

Theresa provided the perfect level of engagement and neither under- nor over-lawyered my divorce. She would apprise me of the status and seek input when appropriate, and she was pro-active about bringing the matter to a conclusion as quickly and efficiently as possible. She and her staff are organized and responsive. Theresa is knowledgeable about the subject area. She made an otherwise painful process as easy as possible. I highly recommend Theresa.

Divorce can carry a stress that requires an attorney with knowledge of what you'll be going through and understanding to see you through ALL of it. Theresa and her team made sure that I was not only prepared for everything that the divorce entailed, they also made certain I had the tools to be prepared for life after. I was very lucky to have worked with such an amazing team. Theresa is a professional attorney with great personal skills and the experience to assist anyone in such stressful times.

Theresa walked me through my divorce and was with me all the way. She was always available to talk. She even made a visit to my home. Divorce is hard but she helped me get a fair result. I highly recommend her.
