I'm here to support you through life’s toughest moments
Family challenges can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. With warmth and understanding, I’ll help you find a path forward—whether it’s through divorce, custody matters, or other family concerns. Serving Naperville and surrounding areas, I’m here for you.
I’ve always known I wanted to help others for a living. After earning my master’s degree in counseling in 1999, I realized my true calling while clerking for my divorce professor in law school.
From that moment, I knew I wanted to dedicate my career to helping individuals and families navigate some of their toughest challenges. Since earning my J.D. in 2005, I’ve been committed to supporting clients in matters of family law.
Extensive experience in divorce, including international divorce, and property division
Author of “Winning Your Divorce: The Top Ten Mistakes Men Make and How to Avoid Them” (2017)
Serving the Naperville, Illinois, area with personalized legal guidance
Empathy and accessible service
I've worked with countless clients whose previous attorneys failed to prioritize communication. That's not how I do things at Emmerth Divorce Law, PLLC. I understand the stress you're likely under, which is why I do my best to be readily available to you and respond to your needs in a timely fashion.
Advice based on your best interests
I don't believe in taking on a large caseload for the sole purpose of a paycheck. If you come to me for legal guidance, and I believe you don't necessarily need my services, I'll tell you. You're a person, not an ATM. I'll treat you with respect and provide you with my honest recommendation for how to proceed.
"Best legal experience so far"
“If you want a lawyer who cares enough to tell it to you straight (what the law really says, likely outcomes, the best approach to resolve), someone who focuses on bringing closure to your current legal situation, and someone who makes the process as painless as it possibly can be, hire Joe!”
- Todd T.
"Guided me through a tough time"
“I was in the middle of a horrible divorce and had just fired my first lawyer when I met with Joe. He brought a sense of calm to the chaos that was going on, and sat down with me to develop a strategy and plan to achieve my goals. The rest of my divorce went much more smoothly and ended very well for me. I would recommend Joe to anyone. He didn’t just do my divorce, he prepared me for life after my divorce.”
- Jason S.
"Made the process manageable"
“I would definitely recommend Joe to anyone going through the [divorce] process. He was always professional and prompt in his communication and made a tough process more manageable.”
- Bill R.
