Carrie and Scott took great care of me! They're affordable and genuinely work to get your needs met. My cases were vacated within a month some within a few days Highly recommend Scott Hanken for legal representation !!

Scott is an amazing attorney. His knowledge of the law is nothing short of amazing. He truly cares about each of his clients and does everything in his power to achieve a favorable outcome. I personally would never hire anybody besides Scott he is a great man!

Mr. Hanken does what he says he will do. I had a speeding ticket and was worried it will affect my immigration record. It was my first speeding ticket - Scott convinced the judge to ammend the ticket to non moving, thus not affecting my immigration and work visa. We're human, we make mistakes. Dont make one mistake ruin your life - hire Scott and dont panic, he will do all the work. Carrie is very responsive and professional worker - Listen to what she tells you and trust their word. Q.

Hiring Scott Hanken was the best decision ever. I was driving from St. Louis to Chicago and I was pulled over by the State Police in Springfield, IL-Sangamon County. The officer issued me an improper passing of emergency vehicle with court appearance and I live in Chicago. I decided to look online and after many great reviews , I contacted Scott’s office. The paralegal Carrie was great explaining what was needed to start the process with the court. The attorney was able to get the ticket dismissed and called me the same day with the news. I appreciate his help and professionalism. He is a lifesaver and extremely recommended. I am so glad I did my research and I found him.

Professional courteous, and extremely knowledgeable! You won't be disappointed. Very Responsive!!

Come Highly Recommended... I researched Attorneys in Springfield, and hired Attorney Vig for a relative who encountered some serious and questionable legal trouble, in the beginning of Jan 2020. My relative & I are incredibly grateful with the outcome of his case. Attorney Vig' s competence, experience, and genuinely advocating for his Client, resulted in the most serious charges being eliminated, with a more favorable case resolution, at the end of 2020. Now his Client is entering the New Year with less stress and the ability to shift his focus on his family, his job, and future endeavors. -Thank You God for discernment in hiring Attorney Vig!

Willam Vig is not only one of the most educated lawyers I've ever had the pleasure of hiring, but also the most responsible, professional and punctual. He worked extremely hard for me and helped me achieve a great outcome in my case. I'd recommend him to anyone seeking representation. I wish I could give more stars.

Mr. Vig is one of the best in springfeild, hands down . He represented me on a dui case and went above and beyond to handle my case with hes extensive knowledge of the law and experience. Very nice , understanding and even called me back after hours to discuss my case . I would definitely hire him in the future for anything . Thank u again vig law for fighting for me

I’m from Chicago and I’ve been staying in Springfield a few years now. Got into some legal trouble that I thought was impossible to get out of. Got 3 felony charges threw out less than a year. Money well spent. I recommend Vig Law to anyone 100%.

I hired him to represent a family member in a traffic law case. He put in extra work without charge when the case turned out to take more time than originally expected. The resolution that he negotiated resulted in a cost savings which was much greater than his fee.

Johnson Law Group is a wonderful team of attorneys who have assisted me in a variety of ways and their expertise and professionalism is second to none. I highly recommend them for all of your legal needs.

This is the best law firm in central Illinois by far. They have helped me out for years from Civil, to Criminal and have been my Corporate lawyer for almost 6 now. I do want give high praise for Brendan Bukowski for recently helping me out in a situation recently that could not have been better, he’s a really genuine guy that actually gave time and effort to my concerns of what I was going through. He’s a really good guy and I would put my trust in him. The entire Group is amazing I’ve had all A++ interactions with Mark Johnson who is literally the smoothest lawyer to ever represent me and his son Doug is an absolute boss! All the legal aides and front office desk help they have are always so nice and always help me when I need to get in contact with the lawyers. This firm is top notch and I don’t say that too lightly !! Trust them they will help you out

Best law firm around if you ever need them. They put so much effort in to make sure their client gets out of tough situations. Super efficient, quick and dedicated to their work. Mark Johnson was my attorney 4 months ago and now he’s family. The whole staff is very co-operative and put a lot of hard work to make the process quick. I recommend them 10/10. Only law firm who is not all about your money. I highly recommend hiring Mark if you ever need him.

The legal representation provided by Johnson Law group was outstanding. I was kept up to date on the status of a lengthy case without ever having to miss work to attend court and all of my concerns were promptly addressed. Mark, sensitive to our situation strategized and persevered through COVID restrictions against a party unwilling to bargain to ultimately obtain the outcome we were hoping for in the beginning. I will always return here for any representation and I would recommend the attorneys at Johnson Law Group to anyone who finds themselves in unfortunate situations. Thank You Mark!

The Johnson Law Group represented my nephew in the appeal of a DUI conviction. Mr. Johnson and his staff kept me informed every step of the way, and answered all of my questions with direct and professional responses. The work products were organized and concise, and they were on top of all of the issues. I highly recommend the Johnson Law Group.

I just needed to talk to a lawyer about something quickly to see if I would need one going forward. Michael called me back quickly, and apoke to me about my concern. I am extremely happy, and if I do need an attorney later, he will definitely be speaking with him!

Rachael Moore Perry is outstanding! I had so much anxiety about finding a lawyer and then having to explain the situation(s) that we’re going on. She immediately put us at ease with her friendly and professional demeanor and listened intently to everything we told her. She has and continues to show compassion for a very difficult situation. If you are in need of legal advice, she is who you want on your side! Thank you Rachael, for making our experience so much better just by being you! I HIGHLY recommend the law firm of Pioletti Pioletti & Nichols, specifically Rachael Moore Perry!

Joe handled my bankruptcy case superbly. Very professional and helpful throughout the whole process. I would recommend Pioletti Pioletti & Nichols to anyone in need of a good lawyer.

Attorney I. Ferrer was very knowledgeable and very professional. He was very helpful and handled our problem fast and very efficient. He was very easy to talk to

A criminal in Normal ,Illinois contacted me and claimed he was a family member that was supposedly revealed through a DNA website. I am not involved with any of those DNA websites and told the person to get lost. Boom !! This person filed two false domestic protection orders against me in Illinois. I live a thousand miles away and needed to get an attorney in Illinois. After much research I reached out to Rachael Moore Perry. Rachael had a great practical background,court room experience and a great team behind her, including Karin Miller an excellent paralegal also with the experience I needed. I was shocked that a convicted felon could arbitrarily file false reports through the court without consequences. Well Rachael Moore Perry and Karin Miller proved that you can’t!!, The offender did not even show for the first complaint but instead of it being dismissed my legal team made sure that the case was heard, dismissed with prejudice. The second complaint was dismissed also, again with prejudice. Furthermore my lawyer filed motions for sanctions against the defender. The judge forced the person to FULLY pay all my attorneys fees. My defense was free. Justice prevailed, a person cannot use the court to harass ,intimidate or extort. I felt confident and at ease with Rachael and Karin and for good reason. They are the dream team of the Midwest

Evan was responsive, informative and straight forward in my consultation. Though his practice does not work in the specific area of law I was looking for representation in, he spent a great deal of time talking with me, offering his expertise and advice on how to move forward. He even took the time to follow up via email w/some resources that he found would be helpful to my cause. He certainly did not have to do any of the above. Stand up lawyer. Highly recommend.

Mr. Bruno was polite and very attentive to me. He answered and explained in detail my options at this point in my case. I left his office feeling more confident in my understanding of what my options are. I also feel like he would defend me and work at protecting my rights. I can confidently say if I could afford his services I would with out a doubt hire Mr. Bruno to fight for me,and would willingly put my life in his hands. Thank you for your time and concern it truely made this whole legal process seem less scary.

I cannot thank enough Tom Bruno for his timely help and support. He and his team are prompt in following up on legal matters and they truly care about you. Tom Bruno listens well to your concerns and very prompt in his plan of action in defending you, your rights and your best interest. The best in the business. Thank you Mr. Tom Bruno for your timely help and advise.

If your wanting a top notch attorney to represent you then make the call to Tom Bruno. Not only did Tom represent me, he kept me informed and was very realistic in what I should expect throughout the process. My results were better than I expected. Just like the old adage says. "You get what you pay for." Tom and his team are exactly what you should be paying for.

Mr. Bruno was a great help to my situation. He was very professional, as well as very knowledgeable. He offered immediate piece of mind. If I ever need any legal counsel, I will not hesitate to to call Mr. Bruno. I will recommend him to anyone seeking a very professional attorney.

    Evan was responsive, informative and straight forward in my consultation. Though his practice does not work in the specific area of law I was looking for representation in, he spent a great deal of time talking with me, offering his expertise and advice on how to move forward. He even took the time to follow up via email w/some resources that he found would be helpful to my cause. He certainly did not have to do any of the above. Stand up lawyer. Highly recommend.

    Mr. Bruno was polite and very attentive to me. He answered and explained in detail my options at this point in my case. I left his office feeling more confident in my understanding of what my options are. I also feel like he would defend me and work at protecting my rights. I can confidently say if I could afford his services I would with out a doubt hire Mr. Bruno to fight for me,and would willingly put my life in his hands. Thank you for your time and concern it truely made this whole legal process seem less scary.

    If your wanting a top notch attorney to represent you then make the call to Tom Bruno. Not only did Tom represent me, he kept me informed and was very realistic in what I should expect throughout the process. My results were better than I expected. Just like the old adage says. "You get what you pay for." Tom and his team are exactly what you should be paying for.

Mr. Lonergan just represented my father with some serious charges we were very worried about.. he was pulled over with 3 ounces of Marijuana in separate bags for personal use.. he was taken to jail and charged with manufacturing/trafficking felony possession of 30 to 500 grams and a speeding ticket. Mr Lonergan fought in court for 2 courtdates and got his felony charges dropped down to one misdemeanor possession and 2 years of court supervision minimal fines.. he worked hard and wrapped the case up quickly, I would absolutely recommend him to anyone with a tough case or facing bogus charges. Great criminal defense attorney!!!! Thank u again!

Mr. Lonergan represented a friend of mine in a case that went to trial. The trial could have gone either way, but Mr. Lonergan got the case dismissed after the State rested. Mr. Lonergan did an amazing job, and we will always be grateful to him and all of his hard work. He talked us through every step of the way, answered all of our questions, and was completely honest with us the entire time. I highly recommend him.

John and his staff were professional and knowledgeable. I am very thankful for their help. They were always available to answer my questions and concerns.

Even with multiple postponements due to COVID-19 requiring additional court appearances my fee stayed the same. Mr. Lonergan successfully litigated my case through trial. His fees are reasonable and his professionalism top notch.

Jon Giraudo is extremely knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and displayed great understanding of my issue. Jon was able to guide me through the process for resolving my firearms issues with the Illinois State Police leading to my reinstatement.

Well I called Chris and we talked over my cases. Told me what he thought about it. And today he did exactly what he said would do. His rates are extremely affordable. A1 service for sure will hire if needed again.

Got me out of a jam when the case seemed unbeatable. Satisfying conclusion to my case.

I have to say Mr McCall is very good at his job, and when he tells you he is gonna do something he does that and more I was sitting on a felony charge and he got it dropped down to a misdemeanor. Not only that my brother was sitting on the same charge and he went out of his way and got my brother the same deal as me if there was ten stars I would give that to him and everyone that works at the office they are so nice and very quick to get back with you when you call. Me and my family thanks you Christopher McCall Your the best!!

Got a different response than expected but the attorney explained why to our satisfaction. The matter had to be tried in another state.

Completely attentive, Sensitive to your needs, Non Judgemental. Gives an aura completely opposite of any other atty. I have ever met. I would feel confident any day in the hands of Mr.Mccall or any one of his colleagues or staff. Amazing. Deserving of iconic status in the judicial system.

The best lawyer there is! So happy with his work and getting our charges dismissed. Him and his wife are a great team and we are blessed to have found them! So grateful for them both! And thank you guys for handling everything so well. He is very busy so you know he’s a great lawyer! 10/10 recommend.

Donna and her paralegal go above and beyond for me and my case.. my case is extremely difficult and they’ve done everything they can for my family. I love this law firm. I would highly recommend Donna and Her husband and there paralegal Marie to anyone needing a family lawyer. Thank you guys for being so awesome.

Brian got me the best possible outcome I could have received. His secretary Marie is Great! Couldn't be happier with there work and Thank You Brian and Thank You Marie for helping me through this process

I hired Brian to represent me for a felony case I had back in June of last year. I needed to find an attorney right away and he agreed to represent me. While I was waiting for my case to be heard, the local police seized my vehicle. Since I had already retained Brian, I asked him if he would represent me in this forfeiture case. He agreed. I can't thank him enough! When we went to court, he was very informative about state forfeiture and seizure laws. Needless to say, he won my case and I was awarded my car back from the police! I was more than impressed with the way he presented and argued my case and so was his peers. After it was over, and I was walking back to my seat, one of the other attorney's in the court room came up to me and told me I had the best attorney to represent me in this case. I have to agree!!! Brian went above and beyond what a regular attorney would do and I was able to get my car returned to me without it "costing me an arm and a leg." I have to say Brian is the best attorney around here and I would highly recommend him if you need an awesome attorney to represent you on felony cases.

Communication can improve but he did his job.
