Casey Lockwood was unbelievably helpful with my unemployment compensation claim. She offered her services with no charge and won my case with 0 issues. I can't recommend her enough

This is a garbage organization! The local school district reported an inappropriate act that was done to my niece. This was reported by two different teachers and turned over to Northwestern legal. The attorney that was given the case had to file for an extension because a day before the trial she was unaware and not prepared for the case. Once the trial started the attorney never cross-examined the defendant's witnesses and her argument was one of the most unprofessional and out of touch arguments I have ever witnessed. Now because of this unprofessional and inexperienced attorney my niece is back in a worse situation with this predator. If you are appointed the Northwestern Leal Services, I would highly recommend to seek other legal counsel because the attorney they give you does not care. Them people are there for a paycheck not to help. Tax dollars at work, what a joke.
