I consulted with Paul on my DCFS case. While not my primary atty, Paul was professional, compassionate and honest. He gave me way more insight into how to handle the situation than my actual counsel and I wish I could retain him. TBH, he was my first choice but scheduling on court dates prevented such but I have consistently sought to have him represent me. You can't go wrong with Paul and he was both generous with his time ad advice (only charge me 2hrs for the ~4 we spent together on multiple calls and document review).

Paul Metzger from the very first phone call provided information and did research on my case. He was available and easy to talk with. What I appreciated the most is that he took the time to explain to me the facts of the case and was accessible when I needed to speak with him. He is also very knowledgeable about juvenile law.

Paul Metzger is the best when it comes to dealing with DCFS he was able to set up the interview and home visit on my terms and it did not take long for him to get my case closed. Paul is absolutely the best he's professional and knowledgeable of what he do. If you need a lawyer for a child Dependency case Paul is the person you want on your side.

Paul Metzger is a very strategic and deft attorney. I am very satisfied with Paul's services. Paul's communication was especially outstanding. I always felt in the loop and because Paul doesn't charge for small phone calls, I felt comfortable taking my time to understand the developments of my case. I highly recommend Paul Metzger as an attorney.

I hope that one never finds themselves in a situation where you are facing false allegations from DCFS or Juvenile Court. It is an outright terrifying thought that your right’s as a parent may be in jeopardy, and an even more terrifying thought that the wellbeing of your child may also be in jeopardy. One would hope that the system would do what is right, but quite simply that is not always what happens, for whatever reasons. You should not navigate something like this on your own, if at all possible. When there is as much at stake as there is in something like this, you need to have someone who knows the court system and can help you navigate your situation successfully. I was blessed to find a person who had an incredible amount of knowledge and experience in this area of law, in Paul Metzger. Not only did he successfully get me the result that I should have got in dependency court, but he also was incredibly sincere in his concern for me and my child. He was always available to help explain things as the arose, and put my mind at ease with his vast experience in this area. If you ever find yourself in needing legal guidance in regards to dependency court, you would be very wise to reach out to Paul and seek his counsel. Thanks again Paul for all you did!

I was referred to Mr. Paul Metzger through my criminal defense attorney in the wake of my complicated, lengthy, and stressful situation that involved DCFS. They were very aggressive and threatened to take my children away. My situation required immediate decision and action, and thanks to Paul and his advice based on extensive experience and profound legal knowledge, I was able to promptly keep my children out of danger of being detained by DCFS. It was a close and tough call to make, but I am grateful that I followed his counsel and ended up saving my children from being separated from a parent, which was the most important objective. Paul is very thorough and detail oriented in giving legal counsel. He will walk you through steps and he stands by your side.
