It happens every day. Clients going through a divorce, or any family law matter, change lawyers during their case. It’s simply a fact of life. Sometimes the lawyer just doesn’t get the intricacies of divorce court or, perhaps, the client and the lawyer just don’t get along.
Respected by colleagues and clients, Sarah D. Casey is known for her unwavering compassion for her clients, high attention to detail, and zealous advocacy.
Sarah is a distinguished attorney with a passion for family law and a reputation for achieving remarkable results. With a career marked by an appearance before the Illinois Supreme Court, Sarah has demonstrated exceptional expertise and an unwavering commitment to justice.
In 2019, Sarah had the honor of arguing before the Illinois Supreme Court in the groundbreaking case of Charles V. Yakich v. Rosemary A. Aulds. This pivotal case revolved around the constitutionality of Section 513 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act. Sarah staunchly defended the DuPage Circuit Court’s decision, asserting that the statute infringed upon the equal protection rights of unmarried parents by compelling them to contribute to their children’s higher education expenses, while married parents were not held to the same standard.
Sarah’s extensive educational background forms a solid foundation for her legal prowess. She earned a Master of Social Work degree with a specialization in Children and Families from Loyola University Chicago. Her understanding of the complexities surrounding family dynamics enriches her legal practice.
In recognition of her exceptional skills, Sarah was honored with the coveted title of Illinois’ “Rising Stars” in Family Law by Super Lawyers in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. This esteemed accolade, supported by a peer nomination, is a testament to her outstanding legal acumen.
Outside of her legal practice, Sarah enjoys cooking, attending music festivals, playing golf, and spending time with her beloved dog, Geoffrey.
