David Lee provided exceptional service and attention to my case. Mr.Lee was able to obtain everything that I asked for in my divorce agreement. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

David was extremely helpful and knowledgeable of my daughter's case. My daughter received a speeding ticket and he was able to get the offense reduced which was not expected. David was very responsive to text messages, emails and phone calls, most of the time responding within minutes. He presents himself professionally and respectfully. All our court appearances were via zoom (during pandemic) and unlike many others he was always in a suit and treated the judge with the upmost respect. I had talked to 3 different lawyers before choosing David. While he was not the "cheapest", he did offer a flat fee which turned out to be the most cost effective in the end. David was most realistic and wasn't making over confident assumptions on what he could accomplish, he was hopeful but realistic. Gave best and worst scenarios that ended up completely accurate. We were offered the best case scenario, but were prepared for the worst. He did an excellent job representing my daughter (who is a minor) to the judge. David was always a joy to talk to throughout the process. I highly recommend him as an attorney.

Mr. Lee was attentive and knowledgeable, with the best possible outcome resulting in my case. Thank you so much!

David was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond our expectations. Without hesitation, he will represent you with the utmost integrity and care. He truly cares about the clients he represents and is the most responsible, ethical and hardest working attorney I have had the privilege of working with. No one contacts an attorney when life is going well... and he holds your concerns with care. When you need someone to first hear you and then understand you and then go to bat for you, David will not disappoint. If I could give him 10 stars I would.

David Lee was phenomenal. He gives you his personal cell so that you can reach him at any time. That alone was an incredible piece of mind. He is extremely reasonably price and is worth every penny. I am a typical millennial with anxiety and was put in an unexpected situation. David helped relieve my anxiety and worked extremely hard on my case. I am very thankful I had him in my corner.

I went to see Ned a few months back aaking about possible divorce scenarios and advice. He took the time to sit with me and explain to me what my options were.... I will be using Ned for future counseling now that i found out for sure 100% my wife has been having an affair for the past year and I have the proof to go along with it.

OUTSTAND! I faced CRIMINAL charges and from the first time meeting Attorney Ned Khan, he was a breath of fresh air. Attorney Khan demonstrate professional, knowledge, confidence and he was “ON TIME”. I knew what to expect before we went to court and what the outcome would be. That's how “GREAT” he is. My case went to a bench trial and Mr. Khan went to war for me. The State’s Attorney would presented a piece of evidence and Attorney Khan would argue his point with a very “STRONG” fact and win. The State did not have a chance. Mr. Khan knew more about the laws then the State's Attorney had known. It was “EXCITING” to watch Mr. Khan at work. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ATTORNEY NED KHAN...HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I would give Ned Khan a highly favorable review in any category. He was very well prepared and represented my case extremely well in trial. Mr Khan was very organized and open regarding pretrial communication and preparation. During the trial his court presence was unmatched and professional. Mr Khan knows the law and easily outwitted the opposing attorney. he was able to communicate my options in a very easily understood manner. His fee was both reasonable and well worth it.

Answered all my questions. Long consult. Attention to details. Helped me with all my needs. And fair about affordability

Great attorney

Matt and his team are grade A, I’d recommend him to anyone. My divorce went smooth and I was able to get exactly what I wanted. As a father it’s tough to get equal rights and I was able to get the custody, maintenance and child support I was seeking. Thanks Matt

It was a great experience, I don't have any recommendations for changes. Mr. Williams explained how the case would take place and it happened as he explained. I didn't have to worry about anything. I would definitely recommend Mr Williams to anyone looking to get a divorce.

Matthew Williams is a terrific attorney who helped me navigate my divorce with compassion and understanding. What could have been a messy battle was instead a straightforward and smooth process. Matthew is very thorough without complicating the issues or dragging it out any longer than necessary.

Mr. Williams is an outstanding attorney! He really knows his stuff.

Mr. Williams represented me in my Family case last year and his honesty and experience with Law and court system was very helpful to my case and made my process very easy being represented by him. Mr. Williams always made me feel very comfortable through the whole process and being very up front with everything was a big money saving as well as achieving the best results. I will always recommend his office. Mr. Ali Mousavi

Terrible! He should be fired. The man said one thing and wrote something completely different on the mediation report. When i called to ask if he could explain why he wrote something different he spoke back in a rude tone said he never heard anything come out of my mouth except that i didn't agree to anything. Which was a lie when both parties did agree on parenting time. The man is delusional, unprofessional, and rude. Never go to that place. All he cared about was the money. He doesn't care to resolve anything.

Divorce is NEVER an easy thing to go through, especially when there are children involved. Brad was my second attorney and he has represented me over a period of 10 years. During that time, he has always acted with deep professionalism. He knows the law inside and out and is willing to fight for his clients. You need someone who can fight for your rights as a parent AND act in the best interest of your children on your behalf. Attorney Swearingen is respected by the judges and many other attorneys in his profession. If you're looking for a great attorney in Kane county, give Brad a call. He was my most valuable ally during the most difficult time in my life. Thank you, Brad!

Mr. Brad Swearingen is fair, direct, and explains all potential outcomes of actions. Mr. Swearingen has been my attorney for over two years and was recommended to me by a respected co-worker. He hasn't always told me what I wanted to hear, but he has been honest and truly cares about the children involved in his cases. I switched to Brad after being dissatisfied with the attention I was receiving at another law office. Brad remembers the details of my case and progresses it as quickly as practicable. Brad is reasonable in his fees and does not overcharge.

Brad has been amazing for me with my divorce. He also helped other members of my family with legal issues. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

He represented my family for a custody and child support issue. He's a wonderful attorney. He knows the law and we were so lucky to have followed another attorney's recommendation to hire him. He is a good man.

I was very pleased with the parenting plan that was presented to the judge. I felt that we were very prepared for trial, despite it being a scary and emotional time during my child custody case. Mike was very knowledgeable of the law and went above and beyond when there was evidence (a recording) and he was able to find that statutes in which it applied to my case. I also felt that he presented himself very professionally and had a good rapport with the judges. He would reassure me during the times in which my ex would cause me a lot of grief. I am forever grateful for Mike and Alicia.

Really bad experience. And total waste of money. Talked to the actual lawyer maybe one time. Was quick to take my money but took months to file a order or even serve the defendant papers to appear in court. Asked for money back and did not receive a reply. Terrible service.

I worked with Mike for over two years on my custody case. It was a long, hard road but he was there with me every step of the way. Always there to calm me down when things got rocky. Always there with insight and wisdom on how to handle our next step. He was there to give me the courage and confidence to take the stand when we went to trial, and he persevered through the finish. He is the textbook of professionalism. Not only was he a great advisor but he became a great friend in one of the most difficult and trying times in my life. I highly recommend him! Thanks Mike.

Micheal just got me a non guilt conviction on my DUI. What a great Lawyer. I recommend hiring him for all your traffic violations. One of the best lawyers I’ve had.

Michael was a great attorney, he listened to my side of the story and made sure all parties understood that it wasn't a black and white offense. He successfully negotiated a agreement that I was very happy with. I would recommend him to everyone.

International case that dragged on for so long until mr. David Schaffer at schaffer family law took over and put the whole case together it was not a straight forward case his dedication and professionalism combined with experience and a real sense that this lawyer actually cared resulted in a life changing result for me. I am forever grateful for what mr. Schaffer did for me. Highly recommended. True to his word from day one.

My case was a very complicated one in which it required overseas communications, so to find a lawyer with the expertise and finesse that David posses is rare. I should say that I had previously ended with my previous representation abruptly when they were unable to move forward with the case due to lack of experience so I was incredibly stressed and concerned to find the right fit for me. I interviewed a number of lawyers and then I met David. He was warm and friendly when I met with him and made me realize that my case isn't just a paycheck for him unlike my previous representation. He sat down with me and walked me through my options. Lindsey who partners with David is also just as great. Very timely with communication and extremely timely with communication. David was an easy choice to make and with his vast knowledge of the court system, not just based in Chicago, but overseas also, he resolved my case in 3 months which previous representation took close to five years. If you are looking for a lawyer who doesn't just known the law but will actually talk to you like a person and walk through everything, David is your man. I couldn't be happier with his performance and I will forever be grateful to he and his staff. Thank you!

The first time I met this man I knew that my case will be settled in my favor. He actually cares about his clients and he has the best advice to give too. My case has not even started yet but I am already feeling victorious. I will recommend him to anyone who need a thorough and a professional legal representation.

David is the best lawyer to have on your side. He is honest, straightforward and aggressive in the courtroom. He is not afraid to fight for your rights, especially in regards to fathers rights. My husband and I are very pleased with his services. We always know that David will come through at anytime. His office staff members are thorough in regards to paperwork, and genuinely cares about your concerns. David and his team is great to have on your side.

My husband and I sought out Mr. Schaffer's services to help us with a custody case for our daughter's children in Switzerland. He provided excellent legal advice, and was instrumental in helping us seek out the right legal counsel in Switzerland. We are very thankful we found him.

    My case was a very complicated one in which it required overseas communications, so to find a lawyer with the expertise and finesse that David posses is rare. I should say that I had previously ended with my previous representation abruptly when they were unable to move forward with the case due to lack of experience so I was incredibly stressed and concerned to find the right fit for me. I interviewed a number of lawyers and then I met David. He was warm and friendly when I met with him and made me realize that my case isn't just a paycheck for him unlike my previous representation. He sat down with me and walked me through my options. Lindsey who partners with David is also just as great. Very timely with communication and extremely timely with communication. David was an easy choice to make and with his vast knowledge of the court system, not just based in Chicago, but overseas also, he resolved my case in 3 months which previous representation took close to five years. If you are looking for a lawyer who doesn't just known the law but will actually talk to you like a person and walk through everything, David is your man. I couldn't be happier with his performance and I will forever be grateful to he and his staff. Thank you!

    The first time I met this man I knew that my case will be settled in my favor. He actually cares about his clients and he has the best advice to give too. My case has not even started yet but I am already feeling victorious. I will recommend him to anyone who need a thorough and a professional legal representation.

    David is the best lawyer to have on your side. He is honest, straightforward and aggressive in the courtroom. He is not afraid to fight for your rights, especially in regards to fathers rights. My husband and I are very pleased with his services. We always know that David will come through at anytime. His office staff members are thorough in regards to paperwork, and genuinely cares about your concerns. David and his team is great to have on your side.

    My husband and I sought out Mr. Schaffer's services to help us with a custody case for our daughter's children in Switzerland. He provided excellent legal advice, and was instrumental in helping us seek out the right legal counsel in Switzerland. We are very thankful we found him.

Grunyk Family Law was recommended to me with there words: during the divorce you will need someone who can present your case to the court. Leah handled my case with attention to detail, emotional maturity , calmness , understanding. I found her approach to me and the opposite side friendly, firm and informative, which translated this very emotionally and financially draining process into manageable necessity. I will be forever grateful to her and her team Member - Renee.

I would recommend Grunyk Family Law to anyone in need of legal advice for any type of divorce. My divorce was extremely complicated and not amicable. I hired Leah because she was highly recommended and she did not let me down. Together we went through months of complicated paperwork, depositions and trial. Leah was always encouraging me to be balanced while also informing me of what I was legally entitled too. Leah was knowledgeable, quick to respond, kept me updated on my case, and was able to achieve the best result I was hoping for. The entire team Renee, Vicki and Ms Grunyk supported me during trial. Even the judge recognized Leah's hard work. I would give Leah and Grunyk family Law team 10 stars if I could.

Leah Setzen and the Grunyk Law firm was so kind, friendly and knowledgable. I would definitely recommend them to help navigate a legal family issue.

RUN! Divorce/NO kids/NO Trial Cost me $XXX,000 + reimburse exhusband for my legal fees. Forced to review divorce agreement for 1st time, moments b4 judge appearance, w opposing counsel & ex threatening trial. Many things I did not agree or know, but in an effort to finalize I just moved forward. I was represented with a different attorney, even though this was specifically discussed and agreed. Several Billing Errors/duplication. Billed weekly for company status meeting and add'l meetings without knowledge. At least one of the lawyers listed in other reviews, is no longer with the company. Dayna said she moved out of state, but actually she is at a different firm with diff concepts. I have PTSD not from my divorce, but from my experience with this lawfirm.

Vicki Kelly of Grunyk Family Law is the best of the best. She listens to you as a client and guides you through the whole process making it as painless as can be. Vicki knows her job well and won’t let you down.

I worked with Monika for my case. The process was as smooth as I could expect with my ex not cooperating at all. But Monika was there to always answer questions and give me good advice.

The staff were all kind and very helpful. My attorney Nicole Janes was excellent, she is very professional and answered all my questions thoroughly. I was very happy how she handled my case. I highly recommend this law firm. -Nunzia

Monika was invaluable to me in my divorce. I appreciate her services so much and would highly recommend her and her entire team.

I would highly recommend Erin O'Connell and the Blacha Law Firm. Erin provided expert legal advice while I was navigating a challenging divorce. I was very impressed by Erin's knowledge of complex legal divorce law and took great comfort knowing she was my attorney during what could be at times acrimonious court hearings. Erin will tell it to you straight and provide excellent counsel . She supported me on issues that I needed to stand my ground on and provided guidance on ones that were not worth the emotional and financial investment. I was very fortunate to have her as my attorney.

Elizabeth Youakim handled my case. She was kind, compassionate, and professional throughout this difficult process. She fought for my best interests at every step. I highly recommend her services.

Ron was very knowledgeable in each aspect of my divorce. He responded in a timely manner, and always reached out if something need to be discussed sooner then later. He asked me what my goals were and laid everything out for me. Although my divorce was long and drawn out, he always reminded me that things will get better and it would be over soon. His son even helped out and it was great having two minds working for me.

I employed Ron for my divorce over 11 years ago. What could have ended up being a "messy" affair ended up being quite drama free due to Ron's mediating skills and fairness to both sides. Recently I needed a copy of my divorce papers asap for a closing on my house, and did not know where to turn. Once again, Mr. Hendrix and his staff came to my rescue. I would highly recommend Ron and his staff. He is a very fair and when you have completed the process everyone feels justified and heard. I would give him 5+++stars!

Ron has been my attorney for quite some time and has never once given me a reason to doubt his efforts. He’s timely in his responses to my questions - at times there are many and he never hesitates to let me know he’s available when I need him. He’s very thorough in his work, suggestions and lays everything out with an understandable explanation. I have two kids, who are my top priority at all times, and Ron made it his duty to make sure my children were also taken care of post divorce to make sure they had the best “new normal”. Ron’s professionalism, motivation, kindness and work ethic made my divorce process as easy as could be expected.

Ron has handled things for me on a few occasions and he is Professional and patient and prompt with return emails or phone calls. I would highly recommend his practice to anyone looking for excellence.

Ron is very professional and never once treated me as I was just one of many cases. He was always very responsive and answered all of my questions and concerned. He was very HONEST and told me up front if it was something I should do or not. He told me he didn't want to just take my money and that is not how he works. He took the time to explain if I had a case and what could happen with the case. I hired him. He helped me with my divorce and it was a contentious one. He was with me every step of the way and helped me. His rates are reasonable and I can see why he was highly recommended. If you are seeking a divorce or have child custody issues, I recommend Ron's law firm.
