I have used Buckley Fine for estate planning. My attorney, Caroline and her staff have been most professional and cordial throughout the process. All commitments and timeframes were met.

This is my second time working with Linda Fine. Her office is in downtown Barrington above the Harris bank. They have a big parking lot and an easily accessible elevator to get to their floor. The office is new and clean. They all were wearing masks and had hand sanitizer and you could feel they follow all the precautions. We worked with Linda and Jackie today. They were very knowledgeable, responsive, and fun to work with. This was for my fathers estate, but my estate planning went just as smoothly. They charge a fair price for their services and I felt they had all the answers to the questions we had, as well as many ideas that require their expertise. I highly recommend their firm and especially Linda Fine. She is fantastic.

A pleasure to engage and work with this firm and specifically Caroline Hecht. Our Estate Planning options were explained thoroughly and in an understandable way. Costs and timelines were outlined and we stayed on track. The professionalism is evident from the first meeting until the delivery of the work product. Highly recommended.

We had a great experience using Andrew Fuller to purchase our home. Andrew is professional and an expert in Real Estate Law.

My wife and I have used David Buckley for over 25 years to handle our wills and their updates, the real estate transactions when we down-sized to a new home and other personal needs. He was always knowledgeable, professional, prompt and efficient. He and his staff are top quality. Jack and Jean McKee

Buckley, Fine has been very responsive, when we needed to complete a transaction within a week! They were on top of all the details, communication was really great! They even caught a couple issues with the contract that we would have missed. We had used Dave Buckley before for our trust and estate planning. Trustworthy, highly intelligent, thorough and fair. I am going to use them for all my needs, no question!

My experience with Buckley Fine was positive from day one! They care, are very responsive and completed my needs in a professional , timely manner. Don’t think twice about it! You will be in good hands! Thank you Buckley Fine!

I highly recommend the legal services of Buckley Fine. They do a great job and are truly expert in this complex space.

I have been a client of Helmut Gerlach's for many years (pre-dating Buckley-Fine). Helmut is the most responsive lawyer of the many I've ever worked with.

Linda Fine handled the trust for my Mother and then a few years later, my trust when I married. She made the process very easy both times. I asked a lot of questions and she was patient and thorough with her answers which made me very comfortable. I am glad that I entrusted her with handling my legal needs. I feel confident that there are no loose ends that will give me problems later.  I highly recommend her for handling estates and trusts.

It is my pleasure to highly endorse Buckley & Fine Law. Our company, located in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago, finances, develops and builds residential real estate. We have worked closely with attorneys Helmut Gerlach, Mark Goldstein, and corporate paralegal Suzy Veley. Helmut, Mark and Suzy have guided us competently, professionally, and diligently through routine business entity formation to complex legal issues. They have met and exceeded our expectations and we are confident to recommend them in every aspect of their representation. On a personal note, David Buckley takes care our family’s estate planning needs. Dave is truly a great lawyer. He is smart, trustworthy, easy to talk to and understand. I highly recommend Dave and his team.

I have worked with Dave Buckley, Helmut Gerlach and the team at Buckley Fine for a long time (predating the formation of Buckley Fine). I run a small company of about 50 people with offices in Illinois and Ohio and have used the team at Buckley Fine for everything from typical contract review to incentive plan design to managing employee issues to mergers & acquisitions. They have met each one of my needs and do it in a professional and timely manner that exceeds my expectations.
