It was a privilege to get help from Jae and his team. They helped me to convert my conditional residency to permanent residency without any interview because they prepared my case very well. Before we agreed to work together he worked on my case and gave information about what to expect and what to prepare. He records all information about his clients’ case as soon as you start to get consultancy so that you don’t need to remind him your information every time. Even you call him after 3 years he will recognize everything about you. He suggested me to prepare additional documentation that not any attorney suggested before. His pricing is very fair and he gives payment options. His pricing policy is very transparent. They have an online platform that you can follow all your documents and case status anytime you wish. You will always feel trust and knowledge and experience as you consider his background as a professor. I recommend him everyone at least to get consultation from him. He will do the best to get your case resolved safely. Will always be hiring him for any immigration matters. Next level is citizenship.
Thank you and your team Jae.

After going through two other lawyers who were no good, I found Ryan and he was amazing! He was very attentive, easy to reach, a good listener and good counselor, and just a great person that you can trust. I’m a small business owner and I’m glad I have Ryan as my lawyer. I know he has my best interest at hand, is very honest and forthcoming. 100% recommend him and his practice.

My name is Mike Kadich and I own The Son's Group insurance agency. I've been using Mr. Van Osdol and Business Law Group LLC for the past couple years on multiple business matters.. Recently the firm helped us through a shareholder dispute in which we were completely satisfied with the results. Ryan shows patience, transparency, along with an ability to educate you on any business situation or concern you come across. I've also referred his law firm to other businesses that utilize his services today. . I would recommend Ryan to any sized business.

Mr. Gardi is an excellent attorney. He assisted us in a real-estate purchase/sale which both closed the same day. We had several speed bumps along the way, including up to the last day before closing. However, Mr. Gardi helped us navigate through all of the issues, and we closed successfully on both properties.
I would recommend him and his team to anyone seeking legal representation.

Mr. LaScola was professional from the first moment that I reached out to him. He made efforts to keep me informed of all of the steps that he took to make sure that my case was handled in the best way. At no point did he leave room for doubt that I had made a mistake in retaining his services.

You messed up but relief is nearby. You want an expert who will also listen to you, explain the situation and your options and put you in the best situation for a positive outcome. Martin is your guy. After you hire him when you are going through waves of freaking out you can come to Avvo and re-read the 100+ positive comments (I've read them all for comfort 8 times by now) and know you've done all you can to help your situation.
I put myself in a tough situation. I went out for a few drinks, nothing egregious but when I was leaving a parking lot I goosed it around a corner and squeeled my tires. I was pulled over and declined to talk the the officers about where I was that evening or participate in any sobriety tests. The prosecutors for DUI trials in Lake county are farmed out to a private firm and the state's firm sent their #1 top guy. Martin got us a Not Guilty on DUI and Reckless driving, and a modest fine and court supervision for squealing tires. Martin went head-to-head with the state's top dui prosecutor and left him noticeably pissed while we walked out with a huge W.
You'll be comforted by his understanding of Lake county courts and procedures. He will listen to you. We worked together to craft a defense and no point anything that I thought important was left unconsidered.
Even though my case hit a complication and dragged on a bit his flat rate fees were clear fair. Quite honestly they were about 75% of what I expected and was willing to pay for a proven winner.
He's super busy but will always make time for you. Most importantly, he's a genuinely good guy.
There's a reason for Martin's top rating. Do yourself a favor and pick the best. Get the free consult and make your own choice. It's hard to put a price in peace of mind. If you've read this, you've been informed. Unless you have another proven rockstar at your disposal to consider I strongly advise you to go with Martin.

James was able to help me out with an issue I needed resolved. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. He really knows what he’s doing. He’s honest, forthright, and gets straight to the point of where his client stands and what must be done. His results? He was able to help me far more than I knew was even possible. I highly recommend him.

Ben was recommended by our Real Estate Agent and we were very satisfied with his team and quality of service. I especially appreciated Ben's time in person when he carefully walked us through documents and answered questions. His calming tone of voice and overall demeanor is a testament to his character and values. Thank you, 23 Legal!

I chose Tom as my USCCA (United States Concealed Carry Association) representative to ensure I’d have expert support as a firearm owner if needed. Years after our initial consultation and retainer payment, I encountered a situation that concerned me and could have potentially escalated into a more serious issue. Late on a Friday evening, I left him a voicemail, not expecting a response until the following week. To my surprise, he returned my call that same evening, addressing my concerns promptly and reassuring me that the issue was manageable.
By Monday, as he predicted, the matter was resolved, and my worries proved to be unfounded. While I can’t delve into the details of the legal concern, what stood out was Tom’s expertise in evaluating the situation and his accurate assessment of its likely outcome. His professionalism and swift action gave me immense peace of mind during a stressful time.
Now, one word of caution: as a client, I started receiving some really interesting articles from Tom's practice—on topics spanning all aspects of his practice. Most weren’t from Tom directly but from others in his firm. One day, my wife stormed in, furious, holding my phone like it was evidence in a courtroom. “Why,” she demanded, “are there emails about divorce in your inbox?” Now, we have a great relationship, so once I explained they were from Tom's firm, tied to his retainer, we both had a good laugh. But let me just say this: if your spouse happens to be the jealous type—especially one with a flair for dramatics—you might want to give them a heads-up. Otherwise, your next legal concern might involve trying to prove your spouse's attempt to stage a “mysterious accident.”

I’d suggest doing some shopping before choosing an attorney for a DUI charge. I did not do so and went with Glasgow because of his reviews. It cost me twice as much as any one I’ve ever talked to in the same situation and often I felt he was late or unprepared for court. One time he even sent his associate to fill in for him who didn’t know my case and had to ask for a continuance because he had another conflict. He is very nice to work with and always answers your questions but I felt he takes on a lot of cases and then isn’t prepared for yours.
In DUI cases especially first offenses often times your lawyer can get it reduced but I didn’t feel that he helped with any part of my case, when originally he told me I had a very solid case in his opinion. If you don’t think you will beat it, there’s not much point in hiring an expensive lawyer like him because you will end up with a guilty verdict and have to pay a ton in court fines on top of his fees in addition. The only thing he seemed to do for me was drag out the case for 4 months and blame the states side when I saw multiple times he was the one unprepared for court. Just my own opinion but I’d suggest if you’re ever in this position to get quotes from a couple lawyers then make your choice.

Rich reviewed severance documents for me after my position was eliminated. He was able to point out some nuances I would not have caught, and was able to explain them in an easy to understand way. He was also very responsive, which was important because I was on a timeline for signing. Will definitely use them again.

I've known Karl for a few years now. I needed a trust drawn up and Karl was recommended by another attorney for his expertise and experience (trusts can be complicated). Karl was professional to work with, explained everything clearly, was dependable and returned phone calls promptly. Recently, I began the processof refinancing my home. Unfortuately, the day before the signing date , I was advised I needed last minute additional paperwork
Verified due to my home being in a trust. I was very stressed and reached out to Karl. He answered my call and handled this last minute problem so I could refinance on time. Karl should wear a cape because he rescued me from a complicated situation. Go with Karl's experience and work ethic. Your legal work is just too important!

Even with Covid-19 and our virtual closings, he explained everything to us and even made us laugh during the process :) He was available to answer any and all of our questions. We would recommend Ed to anyone and will use him again if we need legal help. Thanks Ed!!!

My ex wife is what people call “helicopter mom.” She would not let me see my daughter. She accused me of ridiculous thigs and asked for 100% of any decision-making because I cannot be trusted. From the very beginning Fedor Kozlov told me that it would be a fight and he took the case to the trial. Everyone was against me, including the child representative. I think that he won trial. I have shared custody now and I see my baby every week. Highly recommended!

After a year and half of being with another firm during my terrible divorce and very little progress, I made a decision to change the law firm and hired Law Office of Fedor Kozlov. This ended up being the BEST decision I could have made. I reached out to Law Office of Fedor Kozlov at the point where my case was hopeless. Mr. Kozlov and his team are amazing group of lawyers with high professional knowledge, experience and personal respect for a client. They fought for me as if I was a member of their family, while being very conscious of my financials and using time and money in MOST efficient way. They protected me from unnecessary drama, and ALWAYS kept me posted about my case.
Mr. Kozlov is smart, honest, reliable lawyer with strong negotiation skills, great communication skills and most importantly - he will get the job done without wasting your money and time! Another lawyer in practice, Kendall Monson, fought in court for me on more than one occasion and was able to turn around the case in my favor several times. Both Fedor Kozlov and Kendall Monson were able to change the outcome of my divorce, which seemed closed to impossible. They are more than just very experienced and educated professionals; they are best People that you can absolutely trust. Thank you all for hard work and emotional support!!

Out of pure revenge my ex filed fraudulent chargers against me accusing of child abuse. DCFS became involved. This was a nightmare. Before I hired Kozlov, I consulted with at least three other lawyers. Kozlov showed a good knowledge of the law and understanding of the procedure. It was very important to me to know everything that was going on in court and Kozlov kept me informed every step of the way. This hell is over and I have my child back. He is not cheap but Kozlov chargers only for actual work. Not BS chargers like travel time. He keeps his word. If you work with him he will get you the result.

When we started our relationship, everything about securities law and capital raising was new, and mostly foreign. Thanks to their expert legal advice and impeccable document preparation, we have since initiated and closed two rounds of financing. We would highly recommend engaging Centarus for all of your private placement needs.”

I would like to say that Charles Nutley is a LAWYER with capital letters. I got pretty complicated case with multiple charges including battery, assault and trespassing. Charles met me before first court appearance and laid out the strategy that he had on his mind. When I approached the judge I knew inside me that everything is going to be ok, because of the confidence radiated by my attorney. The result is dismissal of all charges on FIRST COURT DATE! I have never seen anything like it in Rolling Meadows before. Thanks again for saving me from jail and restoring my honest name!

I would like to express my deep gratitude to attorney Kristina Kananchuk for providing professional assistance and for the favorable outcome of my family’s case. From the very beginning, our family felt attention to every detail in our case and a complete understanding of our situation. Kristina wasvery easy to communicate with. As well as her whole team was very helpful from the beginning to the end. She clearly and very accessibly explained the course of the case itself, as well as possible options for the development of events. I am grateful to the chance that in a difficult situation there was a reliable, patient, attentive, friendly, and honest lawyer nearby. I surely recommend Kananchuk Law to anyone who needs qualified legal assistance and human support.

Amanda was the lawyer who managed my application for permanent residence. She was fantastic. Not only does she have a deep understanding of the labyrinthine contradictions of US immigration law, but she has a talent for explaining them to normal people. She understands that you will have options for how you choose to present and file your application, and will guide you towards the choice that is most likely to produce success.
She marched me through the process of creating an application like a (very polite) drill sergeant, ensuring that each letter, and each piece of supporting information, was presented in the optimal fashion.
I will gladly vouch for both her expertise and her professionalism.

Mira has been easy to work with and helped me out with my financial start-up. I needed a contract with the website development company I was working with. I made one on my own but didn't know if it was enough and I was worried about getting sued. She gave me pretty solid advice and made a contract for me that was way better. I didn't realize how much I didn't know!
Everything ended up being fine with the website development company, so I'm glad I don't have to worry about that anymore. I totally recommend Mira for doing contracts.

Atty. Novasic represented me and my husband for injuries we got when we fell walking into a big box store. We are senior citizens and never went through anything like this before. We weren't sure what to do. He made us feel comfortable in pursuing legal action for payment of our medical bills. He knew what he was doing, understanding and easy to get in touch with. He kept us informed as to the progress of the case. He even fought to get the video footage. He got all our medical bills paid and extra for all we went through. Very pleased with his work.

As a single mom I was stressed after my son and I were in a car accident. After talking to Aaron he assured me that he would take care of us. He was calm and understanding especially after I broke down crying to him about the crash. Aaron worked quick and checked in on us to see how the doctor visits were going. Aaron got us a great settlement with the insurance company of the person that hit us. He told us from the first day talking that we won’t have to worry about a thing and that our only job was to focus on our health and he did the rest. I cannot thank him enough!

I have worked closely with Viren on several different cases, from patent searches on consumer products to business entity selection (LLC, Partnership, etc.) on incorporation, to contract review. Viren was very knowledgeable and talked to me as a partner as opposed to a subordinate. Most importantly, he has a knack for technology and seeking information when an answer is not known.
I work with a large base of sophisticated clients and high-net worth individuals, and having access to Viren on my team makes me feel very comfortable when his services are needed in front of my client. You can feel confident that Viren will represent you well..

Steve has done two patent applications for our firm, and is working on a third. He possesses a good "engineering sense" to understand our product with minimal input. His work is timely and thorough, and he utilizes a good calendar system for docketing our applications and reporting to us regularly. He acted as our liaison to our Canadian attorney, insuring that we didn't miss critical filing deadlines. I recommend him highly.
