For more than 25 years, Michone J. Riewer has been helping clients. She helps clients navigate some of the most difficult times in their lives at her Lake Bluff-based law firm, Strategic Divorce. “I care about each of my clients and my success is linked to their success,” she says. “Helping them get to the next phase of their life with precision and integrity is important to them. Most of my client referrals come from prior and current clients who value the service we provide and want us to do the same for their family member or friend.” As a result, over the years she has acquired an impressive degree of experience in all areas of family and matrimonial law, including mediation, custody, visitation, parental decision-making, maintenance, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements, and civil litigation. “I wanted to become a lawyer because I am very good at problem solving and enjoy helping others,” explains Riewer, a Lake County-approved mediator who also has experience in corporate law and estate planning. “I get the opportunity to help them see the future they want and give them the strategy to achieve that better future.” Many of her firm’s clients are sophisticated professionals and business owners. Riewer, who holds a J.D. from Georgia State University College of Law and received her bachelor’s degree from Iowa State University, specializes in highnet- worth individuals, business owners, and professionals who need help equitably dividing complicated assets. “We have the legal and financial expertise to help clients obtain the best possible solution without creating unnecessary drama, acrimony, or attorneys’ fees,” she says, adding that while divorce is often adversarial, her firm aims to help clients recognize that working toward an amicable settlement costs less financially and emotionally. “This allows them to make smart decisions with confidence because they better understand their options.”
