It's a big day at Smolka Law Group! Our clerk Maddy, started at Smolka Law Group in the fall of 2022 when she was still in law school. Yesterday, she was sworn in as a member of the newest class of Illinois attorneys.

Today, she came to work like she does every day, but with a new title and some new initials after her name.

Congratulations! Attorney Madeleine Cavanaugh, Esq.
