Testimonials
“Ron Ousky embodies everything you'd want or need in a family law attorney: reasonable, trustworthy, caring, knowledgeable and a tireless advocate for amicable and fair resolution. I worked with him in a very difficult case that continued over several years, have recommended him to others and know he's still there if I ever need him again. He gets my highest recommendation.”
Patty Mitchell
Former client.
“ Great Results. Expert. High Integrity. ALL of the attributes listed above describe Ron Ousky! I have recommended him to friends many times. He is immensely intelligent, highly ethical, a creative problem solver, and collaborative law is definitely less expensive than the usual litigation methods. It is unusual when one can describe an attorney as a "healer," but Ron has that quality!”
Natalie Roberts, Former client
“Mr. Ousky was very sincere but yet very professional in his handling of my divorce. If I had a list of divorce attorneys to give to a family member, friend or a stranger on the street, Mr. Ron Ousky would be at the top of the list. My now "separated family" is a very respectful and loving family as we all still care about each other. I have been divorced for four years now and my former husband is happily remarried. Thanks to how our divorce was handled we both are happy for each other...”
Alicia Lahti, Former client
“Ron is not only a visionary and leader, but also a down-to-earth, practical lawyer who truly lives his values in the every day. Ron is an old friend the first time you meet him - which means to me that he has the skills and grace to make each person feel special and heard when with him. I give him my highest recommendation as a Collaborative professional.”
Kimberly Fauss , Principal , New Growth Ventures LLC
“Ron literally "wrote the book" on collaborative law. Years ago, Ron published a website to assist families in crisis, http://www.DivorceChoice.com, which continues to provide a wealth of information for families contemplating divorce. Ron is a compassionate, caring lawyer who will help his clients separate the emotion of divorce from doing what is right and in the best interest of the family long term. I have recommended Ron to many individuals over the years and will continue to do so. In this highly litigious society we need lawyers like Ron who focus first on mediating and resolving disputes.”
Terrie Wheeler, MBC , Founder and President, Professional Services Marketing, Inc.
“Having had the privilege of working with Ron on collaborative family law cases for many years, I know what a skillful, creative, knowledgeable and compassionate collaborative professional he is.

I highly recommend him as a collaborative attorney and mediator.”
Deborah Clemmensen , Licensed Psychologist and Neutral Child Specialist, Private Practice
“In the profession of family law, a very few lawyers stand out not only as superb legal representatives, but as people who become an enormous resource for their clients. They are towers of strength and energy, individuals you turn to first for solid, thoughtful advice in troubled times. In this category, no one does it better than Ron Ousky. He sees the big picture; he understands the details. Just ask his clients!”

"For all of Ron's brilliance in connection with Collaborative Practice, and there is plenty, it is his joyful, playful, humanness that stands out for me. As a leading voice in the movement, and even more so during his time as president of the IACP, I always admired Ron's wonderful blend of keen intelligence, tireless drive, and warm compassion. I only wish we were close enough geographically to work together with clients."
carl Michael Rossi, Attorney, Executive Director of Collaborative Practice Professionals of Illinois
"Ron is a shining light in the Collaborative Practice Community both as a stellar visionary leader (Past IACP President, co-authored book with Stu Webb) and as a collaborative attorney. In my experience with Ron as "opposing counsel," colleague and friend, he has always been congenial, thorough and effective in all that he does. Ron is committed to the highest standards of client service and a joy to work with in any role."
