Esq. Sean Chaudhuri - Chicago, IL

I hired Sean to handle my divorce, he did a good job at a fair price

I met Sean in January of 2021. I paid a high retainer fee to have him represent me. He told me that he could get me 60/40 custody. I showed him a very very contentious case where my ex was claiming me to be mentally unstable and a whole laundry list of lies. I'm not sure if this was corruption or not, But I did make mention that the other party claimed to have known the judge weeks before. What happened over the next year was very strange. He passed me over to a woman named Hannah that they just hired. I didn't know anything about her and thought she was just the paralegal at first. She had only passed her bar less than a year before she was representing me. She dug me very far down into a case that was most difficult to come out of and a lot of people were harmed. After 11 months of MLGs most inexperienced lawyer, Hanna, representing me under Sean's supervision. Sean, MLG law and his freshmen pupil Hanna ruined my life, and has caused irreversible damage that I am currently getting treatment for It's so sad to think that you could pay a lawyer and that they knowingly corrupt your case, or standby and let another lawyer intentionally or ignorantly run their case into the ground. My divorce case under MLG should be studied in law schools with the hyper focus on potentially corrupt and / or incompetent lawyers. My case was either corrupt or I had the worst representation in the world that was somehow coordinated.... There are a lot of outside parties involved with this case that I told Sean about in our initial consultation. And for him to pass it off to somebody who just passed their bar? To make matters worse I don't even find out until I'm sitting at court wondering who confused looking this lady is on zoom. The case turned into a defense trial on me real quick with The opposing parties attorney quickly making accusations and making lies, which the judge is listening intently---All the while, Sean's incompetent pupil Hannah sits and says nothing except ask questions about how she's confused about the process. The judge laughs the opposing party puts her down and from that point on I had supervised visitations on my 1-year-old son for the next 3 years. If Sean was an experienced lawyer he would have known better than to do what he did with putting a brand new attorney on a difficult case. I will forever be haunted by regret for ever shaking hands with Sean.
