About the Firm

Built Around the People We Serve

Skyy Law Solutions was founded on a straightforward belief — that quality legal representation shouldn't require a large firm, a downtown address, or an hourly billing rate that makes every phone call feel expensive. Our practice is built around the people we serve: Metro East families navigating estate planning for the first time, couples looking to dissolve their marriage without a courtroom battle, and individuals who simply want an honest answer about their legal situation before committing to anything.

Availability matters. We offer evening and weekend consultations because that's when our clients actually have time. Every matter is handled personally — there are no associates passing your file down the chain, no billing surprises, and no unnecessary complexity.

Licensed in Illinois and serving Madison County, St. Clair County, and all surrounding Southwestern Illinois communities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Metro East clients.

Common Questions

Uncontested dissolution costs vary depending on complexity and whether children are involved. Skyy Law Solutions uses flat-fee pricing — you know the total cost before any work begins. No hourly rates, no surprise invoices. Court filing fees in Madison and St. Clair Counties are separate and set by the court.

Illinois does not legally require an attorney, but DIY wills are frequently invalid or incomplete. Common problems include improper execution, ambiguous language, and missing provisions that create family disputes. A professionally drafted will costs far less than the probate complications a defective one creates.

Most uncontested dissolutions in Metro East Illinois take 60 to 90 days from filing to final judgment. The court hearing itself is typically under 15 minutes.

A will takes effect at death and goes through probate — a public court process. A revocable living trust transfers assets at death without probate, keeping the process private and faster. Most complete estate plans include both: a trust for major assets and a pour-over will as a backstop.

Yes — they serve different purposes. A will controls what happens after you die. A Power of Attorney designates someone to manage your finances or make healthcare decisions if you become incapacitated while still alive. Without a POA, your family may need a court guardianship proceeding to act on your behalf.

Illinois intestacy law determines who inherits your assets according to a fixed formula — not your wishes. If you have minor children, a court appoints their guardian without guidance from you. A will is the only way to ensure your wishes are carried out.

A flat-fee legal review is a one-time, fixed-price service where we analyze your legal situation and give you an honest assessment of where you stand and what your options are — before you commit to anything or spend thousands finding out the hard way.

Yes — evening and weekend consultations are a core part of how Skyy Law Solutions operates. Request a consultation and we will reach out to schedule at a time that works for you.
