About Ana M.

Ana M. McNamara is licensed to practice law in Illinois and Indiana and is admitted to the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals. She brings a mix of regulatory and courtroom experience to her work. Her background includes time in the financial sector, and she carries that practical perspective into legal matters.

Her professional path includes holding a Commodity Broker’s License under the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the National Futures Association. She no longer holds that license, but the experience gave her firsthand familiarity with federal regulatory processes and compliance rules. Those early years shaped how she approaches fact-gathering and client counseling in complex matters.

McNamara has built a practice that spans both state and federal matters in the Midwest. She appears in forums available to attorneys admitted in Illinois and Indiana and has filed matters before the Seventh Circuit. Her courtroom work and filings reflect an emphasis on careful preparation and attention to procedural detail.

She is the principal attorney at McNamara Law Office, Ltd. The firm name appears on multiple office listings and serves as the base for her client work. Within the office she handles intake, litigation planning and client communications. Colleagues describe her as methodical in case development and deliberate in decision-making.

McNamara maintains current memberships in professional organizations and stays engaged with the legal community. She follows rule changes at the state and federal levels that affect her clients. Outside of litigation, she draws on her regulatory background when advising clients who face compliance questions or transactional review.

Her current practice serves clients in Illinois and Indiana and handles matters that proceed in the Seventh Circuit. She concentrates on representing individuals and entities across those jurisdictions and assists clients confronting regulatory and court processes.
