About Ross Schreiter

Ross Schreiter is a savvy, experienced, attorney whose drive and dedication to clients is rooted in his own grit and determination.

With the passing of his father when Ross was a teenager, his family’s means of support evaporated. Ross – ever willing to step up to the challenge – went to work to provide for his household, along the way learning important lessons of responsibility, resourcefulness, and work ethic.

Despite giving virtually all of his earnings to support the family, through careful planning and saving, Ross was able to fund his college degree. He then continued his academic pursuits, worked two part-time jobs, and earned his law degree.

Licensed since 1991, Ross has earned the reputation in the legal community of being a smart, prepared, and skilled practitioner. He is respected by his countless past clients, judges, and colleagues alike.

Over the years he has handled every type of family law case imaginable from high asset financial disputes, and complex custody matters, to protecting the rights of children and domestic abuse victims.

Ross is married and has two children. During his free time, Ross enjoys volunteering in his boys’ activities. He has been a Den Leader and Assistant Cub Master for the Boy Scouts of America, an assistant coach for youth baseball and an AYSO soccer referee. When he can find the time, he enjoys golf and is still in pursuit of a par game.

Hired Attorney

I retained this lawyer from an Illinois firm for a complex divorce involving substantial assets, financial irregularities, and safety concerns. My experience with the representation was extremely disappointing, and I feel it is important to share so others can make informed decisions. Key concerns during my case included: Missed discovery deadlines and a delay of about three months before my discovery responses were sent to opposing counsel. No timely financial investigation, even after I provided early documentation of serious discrepancies and missing records, and needed subpoenas and motions were not pursued with urgency. Long stretches with no communication or updates, including during critical phases of the case. Allowed false income claim narratives to survive without pushback, setting a tone of my own financial dishonesty. The results of the case was financial devestation for my children and myself, having had no defence against financial fraud.
