Sandra Robertson is a Children's Attorney, representing abused and neglected children who are in the foster care system and advocating on their behalf. Sandra’s legal career began in 1994, and she has extensive experience in civil litigation - representing clients in everything from medical malpractice and complex products liability cases, to business disputes valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars. She served as General Counsel for a non-profit organization and also maintained a solo practice for a short time. In 2014, in addition to her full-time work in civil litigation, Sandra started performing pro bono work for the Family Courts’ Truancy Diversion Program, where she worked directly with kids in middle school, helping to get them back to school and keep them in school. In 2018, she shifted her pro bono focus to the Children’s Attorneys Project and became a pro bono children’s attorney. By the end of 2022, she felt compelled to switch her career focus to the meaningful and compelling work of representing children and making a positive difference in their lives. Sandra grew up in the Chicago area. She earned her Juris Doctor from DePaul University in Chicago, and her B.A. in English from Eastern Illinois University. She studied international law at University College, Dublin and has published numerous articles on various law-related topics.
