ISBA:
Judge Denmark was admitted to the Illinois bar in 2004; After a career as a prosecutor, she was appointed to the circuit court in December 2018 and elected in 2020. Prior to joining the bench, she had been an Assistant State’s Attorney in Will County for ten years. After an initial assignment in Traffic, she moved to First Municipal; in January 2026 she was appointed Supervising Judge of First Municipal Trial Section. She has been a speaker in legal topics, is a member of various bar and judicial associations, and participated in community activities.
Attorneys gave positive feedback regarding her legal knowledge, her firm grasp of case law, and her ability to explain things to jurors and pro se litigants. ISBA recommends Judge Sondra Nicole Denmark be retained to the Circuit Court of Cook County.
