I had high hopes this judge would be able to see through the abuse I'mbeing out through at the hands of the law and my ex (I'm a DV victim and was groomed by an older man as a teenager), but seems she's either not as bright as I had hoped or she's in on the corruption. When you don't pay for an attorney in Will Co, you can guarantee you'll lose your kids without a shred of evidence.

Worst Judge in the whole State! She comes up with her own rules on the fly, does not want to follow Supreme Court rules. Does not even allow attorneys to speak.

Rating:1.0
Comments:
Just an all around awful judge. [Redacted] Needs to be impeached immediately, she demonstrates daily why she was the ONLY judge that was ousted back in 2015 and was somehow able to return… Has to have some kind of connection to the court. VERY rude and lacks intelligence -100/10.

Extremely rude and completely biased against men. If you are a man, you will NOT get fair treatment!! Beyond arrogant as well while I suspect that she is probably extremely weak when it comes to her legal knowledge

She is very female centric. If you are a man in the state of Illinois you're almost guaranteed to be treated unfairly by Judge Osterberger.
