Fred Acosta is one of the best lawyers in Chicago, Thank you for winning my case!

They lost all the papers for the process, played profesional till they got paid. Immigration officials said it was a very poor quality paper preparation the case was all over the place. All the work is done by the secretary and it’s the third one with in a year. Their versions did match with what the immigration officials said, take your business somewhere else this place is a waste of money .... They put you to do all the legal paperwork that they should be doing.... please please find another place (US immigration words)

Incredible attorney! Very knowledgeable and attentive to the case and any questions you may have. Kept me updated on everything throughout. Mr. Acosta received the very best outcome possible that we did not even think was possible. My felony charge was completely dismissed! I couldn't thank him enough. If your looking for the best attorney for your case, Mr. Acosta is the guy!

The Toney Law Firm was excellent! They helped to resolve a long standing issue with my driver’s license in a timely manner with ease. I was told what to expect with each step and things happened just as I was told they would. No surprises and no additional cost. I would highly recommend.

I have had only two experiences with lawyers in my adult life, both stemming from a DUI I earned and deserved a couple of years ago. The first attorney went once to court with me and did a reasonable job as far as I know on the plea and getting me supervision. After that, he wasn't willing to take my calls and was pretty much non responsive. This led me to look on line for other representation. I won the lottery when I found the Toney Law Firm - They answered my questions and went to bat for me in the follow up court date. The result was complete termination of further responsibilities and a successful end of the supervision period. I got my life back with no strings attached. This would most surely not have been the result if I had retained the other attorney or tried to go it alone. If you are in a position similar to mine, I can't urge you more strongly to call The Toney Law Firm. Thanks Sarah & crew!

The Tony law firm made me feel like I made a sound decision to hire them. Cambry kept me well informed and was always prompt with a response to any questions. They went above and beyond for me during this pandemic. I felt like I wasn't just another case for the week. It's a lot to shoulder when you are dealing with a DUI, and they helped me navigate it with confidence.

If you or anyone you know is looking for an attorney, I highly recommend The Toney Law Firm. Sarah Toney, Cambry McNabb and Kenet Weed are the best attorneys I’ve ever dealt with. They were all very fast at responding to any questions I had, and also extremely helpful throughout my entire court process. They helped take a huge weight off of my shoulders, and I’m very thankful to have had their help. They are extremely knowledgeable, and have great experience with many types of cases. With any one of these women, you will be greatly represented. You won’t find better than this law firm.

Very responsive. Always returned my call in a timely manner. Very good customer service. Thanks for the help!!

I was charged and not to mention framed for a serious crime; I served 7yrs for this crime that I I did not commit (which was 4 class X’s and brought 6-30yrs for each one)! I recommended Josh for over 20yrs to family and friends in which he got them out of tough situations. I never thought that I would have needed him the way that I did. He came through and got my cases appealed in which it was over turned by the applet court. Although I served those 7 yrs, not only did he get my name back and my reputation but he also got a law stated in my name, Rosado VS The People, feel free to look it up and see for yourself! I never had a doubt that Josh would pull through and he did just that! I recommend him whole heartedly for any battle you are fighting. He saved my life and can also save yours!

I highly recommend!! Thee best, most honest... just great guy. Very well respected lawyer.

The best choice!

I was charged/framed for a serious crime, my family and I were at a loss as to how we would find a good lawyer. Everyone thought that I would go to prison. My family found Joshua B. Kutnick, and they hired him. Frankly, I was not certain that he would be able to win my case, yet I waited for the results. Prior to the trial date, he invested/worked as though he was a brother or father to me, within this cruel world I realized that humility still lives. On the day of trial, my nerves were wrecked. He went in and WOW! my case was dismissed, with no penalties. I was speechless, as was everyone else with the results. That was all due to the hard work and prowess of Joshua Kutnick, this honorable man has 18 years of experience under his belt. I normally don’t write lengthy reviews, however, I know that nobody’s absolutely perfect, everyone faces is accused once, if you’re charged, the most beneficial things you could have would be this lawyer. Thus, use him to your benefit. Do not assign a lawyer with a lack of background/experience who will only feed you empty promises, to get hold of your money, which will result in a bad outcome. Best of luck to you all.

Josh is a great criminal defense lawyer. I strongly recommend him.

I was absolutely satisfied with Mr. Wise, I love how much effort and ambition he showed in my bench trial! He kept me up to date and informed every step of the way with everything.. which helped me feel more comfortable. Definitely recommend if you need someone dedicated and sharp to handle a DUI charge!

The best lawyer out there! Wouldn’t think twice about having Mr. Wise as a lawyer. He puts all his time and effort when fighting for his clients.

I had a cross-suit whereby I had placed an OP in DuPage and the Respondent placed one in Cook days later. It was becoming extremely messy and it was starting to turn against me. Attorney Wise is just the Zealous attorney needed for the job! I overheard him with a different matter being heard before my case in Cook and was thoroughly impressed. I am a 10-year paralegal and I have never seen this type of strategic assertiveness in all of my career. Extremely quick and to the point. Candid and an overall pleasure to have been represented by him. I have a peace of mind and would undoubtedly retain Mr. Wise again.

Calling Howard an exceptional criminal attorney is quite an understatement; he literally saved the remainder of my life, and has allowed me to move forward with my dreams without a lengthy prison sentence separating the two. He successfully negotiated not one, but two life altering cases, concurrently. I am blessed to have chosen him amongst the countless other attorneys that make themselves readily available.. and I didn't need a stack of post cards to make that decision. I am forever endebted to him for his 2 + years of continued hard work; always seeming to somehow make it to Du Page, Maywood, and Skokie all in the same morning, knowing it was just for a continuance. He never stopped fighting for me (and my mother, grandmother, aunt and brother that hardly missed a date) and end all got me a better outcome than we all thought was even possible at the onset of this horrendous ordeal; even better than the best case scenario that we even discussed was possible. I tear up as I write this because I write it as a free man.

Very rude the guy is a complete fraud.

Robert kerr has been a outstanding attorney throughout the whole process of my case!!! I will definitely recommend!!!

Robert is a top tier attorney all the way around! He is courteous, patient, and hard working. He talks you through every process, making sure you understand each step and feel comfortable with the actions being taken on your behalf. He is willing to work with you financially and is always there to answer any questions that may arise. I highly recommend anyone needing an attorney to put your faith in Robert, you will not regret having him on your side.

He seems to know what he's doing but... He keeps missing Court appointments. The very first appointment he didn't even show up my husband had a court date yesterday, didn't get a call didn't get a email or anything we're still trying to catch this guy don't hire him. $3,000 is a lot of money for someone who can't keep an appointment.

If you are looking for a criminal attorney I will not look any further! I have witness my brother's trial and not only was he found not guilty and won his cases but the way Robert has defended the case with so much passion and dedication, the way he thinks ahead through out the whole case is incredible, he's definitely a lawyer that you want to have to protect you. Sorry but I have to say something with a comment I saw here… I completely 100% disagree with one of the comments here because Robert has been my family’s attorney for years and every single time he treats every case with so much devotion, I personality witness how professional he is with the cases in court, how he treats my family is like he is defending his own family

I can’t say to much about Mr. Kerr, Other then he was very professional with dealing with my case. His performance was outstanding and he stood on business at all times. He was never no more than a call away, in fact every time I called him he either answered or got back with me in a timely fashion. I have much respect for Mr. Kerr. Hopefully I won’t need a lawyer again but if I do he’s going to be the first to call. He was worth every penny !!

Mr Freidburg was absolutely phenomenal! He was confident and delivered as promised. He's extremely responsive whether it be email, text, or phone. Extremely glad that that I worked with him! Highly recommend!

David L. Freidburg is the best lawyer I found. I paid him to help me get a Felony Charge sealed and it only took four months to finish everything. David is the best lawyer I've hired. I recommend him as a really good lawyer.

I am currently residing in California and required a lawyer to expunge my case in Chicago from a few years back. David was the only lawyer who was immediately responsive to my texts and emails and even set up several calls to walk me through the process. Furthermore, he did this all through the Covid-19 pandemic. I cannot recommend David enough especially if you are someone like me who likes constant contact with my lawyer.

Mr. Freidberg represented me as the Respondent in an Order of Protection. This was a serious matter for me due to my professional capacity. The claims in the summons were stated purely out of malice. Mr. Freidberg was able to get emergency order VACATED this summons and petition were DISMISSED. I would HIGHLY recommend David L. Freidberg as his professionalism, his responsiveness and due diligence are impeccable.

Don’t even waste your time. Terrible law firm. Most of the reviews are family and friends trying to boost the legitimacy of this firm. Call the Illinois Bar Referral service and they will take care of you. I was warned, but I didn’t listen. Save yourself the headache and trouble. Avoid.
