We met with Attorney Carmen Quinones, from Wilmette (a suburb of Chicago.) She's fun to talk with. Parking her car in our weed-strewn parking lot and making it safely down the stairs to our drafty, underground virtual studio, Carmen brought a wealth of knowledge, kindness and good humor to our round-table discussion. She has uncounted years of experience, both as a psychology professional in Virginia and Illinois, and as an attorney for adults and children here in Chicago.

In this Episode 43, recorded by flickering candlelight on October 23, 2024, with small creatures scurrying around on the floors and walls (it was almost Halloween,) Marjie, Barry and Kevin put Carmen under extreme psychological pressure to spill some secrets and tell some war stories, and she did not disappoint.

While she is appointed by judges to represent children in some cases, she is also hired by parents and spouses to represent them directly in other cases. To schedule a consultation with Attorney Carmen Quinones, and to tap into her warmth and insight, call her at 847-920-0200.
