59082	Other	No Rating	This judge does not seem to understand the concept of economic distress/coercion and fraud. She lets banks get away with murder, while ruling against the non-banker. If you are pursuing a case against a bank, get another judge. ...Read More	08/27/2018 01:10 AM	Contact reviewer
19223	Civil Litigation - Private	No Rating	Extraordinarily slow--mentally and otherwise. 3-4 months to get a hearing on a fully briefed motion.....tentative and unsure of herself...clearly over her head.	12/23/2012 06:41 PM	Contact reviewer
13754	Civil Litigation - Private	View Details	Very, very nice lady. She is both diligent and thorough. However, Judge McGrath lacks the analytical skills required to handle legally complex matters.	03/04/2012 09:24 PM	Contact reviewer
4182	Civil Litigation - Private	No Rating	Indecisive and likes to "split the baby" and doesn't move things along. But, probably in top half of judges in Circuit Court.	12/31/2008 10:35 AM	Contact reviewer
3283	Civil Litigation - Private	View Details	Excellent demeanor. Very pleasant personality. Thinks carefully before ruling and generally appears to have carefully read the material. Doesn't prejudge anything. Takes her position and responsibility very seriously.	11/04/2008 10:23 AM	Contact reviewer
2805	Civil Litigation - Private	View Details	Did a good job trying case between very contentious litigants and attorneys. Seemed very fair and willing to bar evidence that could come in as too prejudicial. Can be pretty gutsy in taking the right issues away from a jury.	09/10/2008 10:35 AM	Contact reviewer
