Practice Areas
Wills: Protect Your Kids and Your Wishes.
A will is a great starting point in Illinois It allows you to decide who would raise your kids, receive your assets and put your wishes in writing. But here is what most families don’t realize, a will does not keep your family out of court. Court means delays, added stress, costs and decisions being made by a public probate court. For some families this is enough but for most of our clients, they want more protection for their families. Click Here to Learn More.

About Founder & Attorney Allison Marketti
“The Right Plan Can Protect Your Family and Everything You’ve Built.”
Attorney. Business owner. Wife. Mom of three.
And someone who lives right here in this community, just like you.
I’m Allison Marketti, founder of Marketti Law Firm, bestselling author of The Illinois Wills & Trusts Handbook.
I grew up here. My family is involved in the local church, and you’ll find us at games and activities all over the area.
After being a lawyer for more than 20 years, I’ve seen what happens when families don’t have the right plan in place.
Not because they didn’t care, but because no one ever made it simple, clear, and easy to follow through on.
I’ve seen:
Families pulled into expensive, public probate court
Accounts frozen when they’re needed most
Judges making decisions for children
All of it can be avoidable.
Which is why I built this firm, to give local families and business owners here a better way to plan.
Clear. Caring. Thoughtful. Done right.
Because this isn’t just about documents.
It’s about making sure your family is protected, your children are provided for, and everything you’ve built stays in the right hands, without public court, confusion, or unnecessary stress.

The right approach depends on your family, your assets and your goals. Click Here to Learn More
-
If you pass away without a will or trust in Illinois, state law decides who receives your assets, not you. The Illinois court may also need to appoint a stranger to handle your bank accounts, home and care. This process can create additional stress, delays and expenses for your loved ones during an already difficult time. A thoughtful, complete Illinois Estate Plan can help protect you, your spouse, your children, home, business and finances. Click Here to Learn More About Illinois Estate Planning.
