About Julie
Julie Pirtle built a foundation in the social sciences before turning to law. She earned a Bachelor of Science in sociology from Northern Illinois University in 2008. Four years later she completed her Juris Doctor at Northern Illinois University College of Law, graduating in 2012.
Her legal career is rooted in local practice. She is a member of the Kane County Bar Association and the McHenry County Bar Association. Those memberships reflect steady ties to the counties where she practices and to the courtroom and community networks that serve local clients.
Pirtle practices at Pirtle Law Group, LLC. She works from the firm’s offices and manages matters for individuals and businesses who contact the firm. Colleagues describe her as pragmatic in approach and attentive to client needs. She aims to explain options clearly so clients understand the practical implications of their choices.
Her background in sociology informs how she approaches fact patterns and client interviews. That undergraduate training contributes to how she listens and how she frames issues for negotiation or litigation. It is a perspective she has carried into the courtroom and into client counseling.
In professional settings, she participates in bar association activities in Kane and McHenry counties. Those ties have kept her engaged with local developments in rules and procedure. She also draws on the resources of her firm when preparing cases and developing strategies.
Pirtle’s practice is based at Pirtle Law Group, LLC, where she handles client matters through the firm’s offices and through the bar associations in the counties she serves.
