Great team here! Had my case completely dismissed! They kept in touch and made it very easy for me. Will definitely be using DDT in the future if ever needed. No need to go elsewhere! Thanks again DDT!
Review
Just a little back story- didn’t know I needed an attorney for the ticket I received until my second court date. Tried to hire a well known attorney who only communicated with me through text, refused to call me, stopped answering my messages, SO rude, and left me hanging 4 days before my court date. I was so upset and scared. Found this team online and Maria was SO helpful from the start. She gathered all my information, told me everything I needed to know and assured me the team would take great care of me, and so they did! I was expecting to go into court blindly, but Eric Tibbs called me within 20 minutes of speaking to Maria. Informed me of the entire process, the possible outcomes, and most importantly was very reassuring. He also kept in touch and reminded me of the court date 2 days before (thankfully). What should have been a way bigger deal got dropped down to a simple fine & a second chance. I don’t know what I would have done without Maria’s compassion and Eric’s hard work. I can not thank this team enough!
Review
This team is amazing. My lawyer Chris Dionne was extremely knowledgeable and was able to help me with a case that was hopeless. He gave me very sound advice and walked me through the entire process with care and compassion. I would recommend this team to anyone that needs legal assistance of this nature. Excellent job, Chris! Thank you so very much!!!
Review
Derek and his team are top notch, they were able to professionally navigate the court system and end result of what could have been major offenses was a dismissal and expungement from public record! As an overly anxious person Derek was extremely responsive and sensitive to my inquiries always answering with explanation in terms that we’re understandable and realistic - couldn’t have asked for better representation for my case! Highly recommended I’d give 10 stars if available!
Review
Grateful to have picked this company. They did great in giving me updates and staying in touch with me, and Kelly Moore was amazing as well. Thanks to her, I was able to get a great deal on my case. Highly recommend DDT and Kelly!

Mr. Azhari has helped my family and I out tremendously! I highly recommend him to anyone that is in any legal trouble and needs help. He is extremely professional, nice, and above all, knows the law. He was able to reduce my moving violation down to "supervision" and this violation was ever on my driving record. He also handled a case in which a family member was involved in a wrongful arrest. We contacted Mr. Azhari and he was able to get all charges completely dropped. We are forever grateful for him! We appreciate all of his hard work and dedication and will always feel comfortable in contacting him first.

Mark is a phenomenal lawyer who was able to resolve my legal concern in one day! He is brilliant and has a phenomenal grasp of the law, but also humble enough to recognize when he needs to learn more. His prices are fair and considerate of the middle group of people who cannot qualify for a public defender but who cannot afford a lawyer. This is despite the fact that he could be charging much more as a graduate of one of the most prestigious law schools in the country. I would highly recommend him for all your legal needs!
Review
When I approached Mark with my legal concerns, he immediately responded, detailing exactly what I needed to do. Throughout the process, Mark was honest and clear about the process and what I needed to contribute. It was evident with his attention to detail that my money was well spent. And the most important part, we won!
Review
Best rental lawyer around very prompt and responsive
Review
My son recently changed his group of friends and made some very poor choices. I contacted The Almanza Law LLC. Immediately upon reaching someone on the phone my anxiety began to subside. The first impression of any business is the initial phone call or the receptionist. Needless to say I was impressed. Attorney Mark Almanza accepted my son's case and was able to resolve it in favor of his client. Grant it there are stipulations pertinent to his freedom, but my son's brush with the law scared him straight and his attorney did not sugar coat things for him. A lesson well learned for my son and money extremely well spent on Attorney Mark Almanza !
Review
Mark has been a pleasure to work with. Very professional and always happy to answer any questions I had. Would highly recommend!

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!
Review
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.
Review
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.
Review
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.
Review
Very rude the guy is a complete fraud.

Review
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)
Review
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!

Review
She's wonderful. I called her literally 3 days before a trial, she jumped right in and helped me out. She had to make a split decision as we sat in court about submitting dash cam video evidence or not. She made the right call and we didn't even have to have the trial, case was dismissed and we just walked away. Very sweet, funny, an actual human - unlike other attorneys Ive used in the past. Any future violations you can bank on me calling her rather than shopping around. She's got my vote.
Review
Professional, responsive, attentive, reasonably priced, honest and well prepared. I hope I NEVER have to use her again, BUT, she's in my contact list just in case. ???? We've never had to use an attorney before, we were very nervous about the process...she took care of us. Thank you, Mrs Jordan. I almost felt comfortable enough to let her make all the decisions without needing to consult with me. We highly recommend her.

The work that Bob & Alison put in on my fiancé's case was nothing short of amazing! They took on a case that was on its last legs and not only got a better result but they made it make sense. The time, dedication and fight that was shown in the short time that they were on the case was something that our previous attorney hadn't shown in 2 years. I applaud them and would recommend them to ANYONE needing help. If there's a decision to be made, she explains everything so that you're comfortable but there is no settle in Alison, she has a win first mentality and she's going to work to get you the best result. Hopefully we'll never need her again but she would definitely be the first number I'd dial. I'D GIVE HER 10 STARS IF I COULD!!
Review
I spoke with Allison Anita in regards to a family members case, she was very professional, answered all my questions. Would recommend!
Review
Alison was great communicating when we were in the process of hiring Motta & Motta. However, out of the last 4 court dates, the 1st 2 dates the lawyers showed up late with no contact, neither knew anything about the case. The 3rd date was postponed due to the stay at home order and we were never notified and the most recent date nobody even bothered to show up. You can call them, but always get their off site answering service who can only send them a message.
Review
Allison was very helpful and knowledgeable when I explained my situation.
Review
No doubt the best criminal defense attorneys in Chicago. I was referred by a friend for federal drug trafficking case and Alison got the charges completely dropped. Would recommend to all friends and family.
