I received a ticket while visiting Chicago years ago and once I realized that it hasn’t been handled I contacted “Fabbrini Law Group”….I live in Las Vegas and it was handled Professionally and without any incidents….Thank You for your Professionalism….

Fabbrini law group is one of the best here in Chicago. Jim Fabbrini helped me get what belongs to me in no time

I was represented by Nichole Massarello from Fabbrini Law Group and she was nothing short of excellent. She was very helpful in making sure I understood the procedures and stayed on top of all the schedule changes due to COVID19. She was consistently on time and handled my case smoothly. I was lucky to have her because she was able to get my case dismissed. Thank you again so much!!!!!

If you have a simple case Steve Hunter probably will be your choice. But for more complicated case choose someone else. The most Mr. Hunter can do is convince you to enter plea agreement. You can do it yourself and save tens of thousands dollars. Prosecutors don't respect him, judges treat him like law school student. Most important - don't get onto "free consultation" trap!

Hunter is an incredible Lawyer! He was very knowledgeable and compassionate for my case. Hunter took extra steps to make sure I was represented in the best manner. He studied my case throughly easing my stress and anxiety. Attending Trial we were very prepared, Hunter was fully equipped and battled my case. Hunter is well respected in the legal arena amongst peers and the legal department. I was able to come out with a win thanks to Hunter! -Professional -Respectful and Respected -Timely -Punctual -Humble/Compassionate -Knowledgable/Prepared Thanks Hunter you really changed my LIFE! I’m forever thankful!

Steve Hunter was incredibly professional and helpful during my traffic case. He was very patient with me and walked me through the process as I navigated traffic court for the first time. He was easy to contact and answered all of my questions. He was prompt, organized and thorough. Most importantly, he got me a "non guilty" verdict which was such a relief. His rates are reasonable and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!

Mr. Hunter's extensive experience and knowledge of the law gave him the ability to effectively argue my case in court, which resulted in a dismissal. Great Job and Thanks again!!!

We had a great experience working with Steve Hunter. He was professional, thorough and he ensured we reached an acceptable solution that we’d not have had without his involvement. I highly recommend Steve for his legal services.

You get what you pay for and these guys are worth every penny. I've used their firm in 2 different cases, izy did an amazing job for me both times. They make you feel at ease knowing you have knowledgeable people representing you. I would recommend them to anyone

I am very grateful for the help I always received from Chicago Trusted Attorneys. A year and 2 months ago I needed their services for my DCFS case in Cook County. As always the services exceeded my expectations. At anytime I need them they are always available to help quickly and a high level of professionalism. They explained everything in detail and made the process a better learning experience. If you need an attorney Chicago Trusted Attorneys are for you. David Smith and associates are who I highly recommend. In giving advise, David Smith steers his clients down the high road. I feel like he was looking out for my best interest and he earned my respect and trust. He is very reliable, gets great results for you and make it extremely convenient for you to continue with your work life and personal life while he works hard for you. Gained a great friend. To you and everyone at your practice. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.

These guys were amazing. They had the ticket dismissed completely, making the value tremendous as well.

Hands down there the best team I’ve ever dealt with. Paul Burnson is an amazing lawyer and I have to say this is the first time I ever seen results from a lawyer and they were great! Would highly recommend them to anybody dealing with any case. Very fair, reasonable,straightforward, honest, I could keep going etc…Great job guys!!!

Paul & David represented me excellently in both the criminal defense and expungement processes. I was in a position where I had charges that were very much unfounded but nevertheless difficult to overcome. David represented me expertly and with great empathy to get the charges dismissed and Paul overcame some significant obstacles to get my expungement petition granted. They collectively saved my career and prevented me from facing very serious consequences for things I didn't do. It's easy to underestimate the work required to fight off even basic charges but,particularly during the pandemic, it was a truly daunting process. I'm happy to have found them and highly recommend them!

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 !!

    I had a serious case in Will County in courtroom 402. I was facing 8 criminal counts involving home invasion, aggravated use of a weapon, burglary and resisting arrest. I was completely innocent, and the entire incident stemmed from a disagreement with an individual that got out of control and ended up involving the police who also claimed they found a gun on me after arresting me. My wife was pregnant with our first child, and the Bolingbrook police department seemed bent on making my life hell. I was looking at more than ten years in prison. I hired attorney Uche who came highly recommended by a neighbor. Uche worked hard on my case. He was aggressive and tenacious with my case. To my pleasant surprise, on March 26, 2021, Attorney Uche got the prosecutors to dismiss the case; every single criminal count!!! I am back to my family, stress free and happy. Uche is a life saver and the best. A lot of the prosecutors really respect him, and it showed in the results.

    As an attorney, I have referred Attorney Uche multiple cases. Every single client I have sent has had an excellent experience and received excellent representation. Attorney Uche is a rare talent and an excellent courtroom advocate. Very well respected in the Chicago legal field.

    Glad to know this lawyer is now practicing personal injury law as he was a complete waste of time and money for the criminal cases he used to take. Very crooked and completely money hungry. Additionally I was represented by Mr. Uche in 2014 for a misdemeanor case he wasn’t even able to scratch the surface with. I was in a horrible situation and he just took my money until I fired him. How was a cheaper attorney able to get the case dismissed? I have no clue but it happened. All is good with me now but I still remember the horrible experience I went through. Regardless karma comes around and I hope it catches up somehow.

    I was falsely accused for having a gun. I was charged with a felony. Attorney Uche was able to get the prosecutors at the 26th street courthouse in Chicago to drop all the felony charges. Truly grateful to him. He is talented and also the consummate professional.

    Had a DUI in Bridgview Courthouse in courtroom 207. Attorney Uche took it to a bench trial in front of Judge Fairman and won for me within 30mins. Really appreciate it and now I can get this entire episode behind me.

      I was falsely accused for having a gun. I was charged with a felony. Attorney Uche was able to get the prosecutors at the 26th street courthouse in Chicago to drop all the felony charges. Truly grateful to him. He is talented and also the consummate professional.

      Had a DUI in Bridgview Courthouse in courtroom 207. Attorney Uche took it to a bench trial in front of Judge Fairman and won for me within 30mins. Really appreciate it and now I can get this entire episode behind me.

    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!

    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.
