Excellent representation for an international child support and custody case, first in 2010 and then again in 2021-2023. The team is professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy and thorough. Reed Centracchio and Associates is honorable and represents with great integrity which is very important to me. I have always felt supported during the process, even though at times the case almost broke me. I felt confident from day 1 that we made the right decisions and arguments not only with class and respect but also with strength and authority. It is difficult to navigate through a lengthy, trying and exhausting court battle but this team is phenomenal at what they do. I cannot thank them enough for representing me.

Matt Prengaman is the real deal. From the beginning to my case to the end. Matt Prengaman was fighting to win my case. Even when I thought I didn't have much hope. Matt was like we're not taking no plea we're taking this to trial cuz we're going to beat this case. I just followed his lead. He knew what he was doing he knew what he was saying. On August 11th 2023 my case was dismissed. Matt Prengaman I want to say thank you for all your hard work. If I ever get in any trouble in Chicago your number is on speed dial. Anthony Miller

From my initial consultation with Ms Centraccio to working with associate Michelle Cassidy as my counsel, this firm was so helpful to me. They listened, advised and truly made the process and experience a lot easier for me. Michelle’s expertise was impressive throughout, and I never doubted that my interests and well being were the top priority. She deftly managed this with a sincere respect for my and my husband’s commitment to an amicable and fair divorce, which isn’t the norm for most, but I know that if my situation were contentious, she’d be tenacious and effective. Whatever your situation you want this firm and Michelle on your side. She was a great listener and she made me feel like I had not only a lawyer looking out for me, but a friend too.

Matt is the best lawyer ever i had a few cases and he expunged everything off my record thank you again Matt

I cannot truly express the contentment and gratitude I have experienced while working with Reed, Centracchio & Associates. They have absolutely been more than I could've ever asked for in helping me with my divorce. I worked closely with Misty Gamino. Misty went above and beyond any and all expectations! Her knowledge and expertise is second to none. Throughout the entire process she thoroughly explained steps and strategies, she put my worries at ease, delivered on all promises, and fought very diligently. She and Mr. Reed make an amazing team and I am more than grateful to have been represented by the two of them. . Highly, highly recommend!!

I had a order of protection filed on me by a guy I dumped.....this attorney emailed and corresponded with the bums sister who had absolutely nothing to do with anything. I felt as if he was on their side.....guy had my house key....this attorney couldn't even get that back to me. Would not recommend.....the case was dismissed but I didn't like the correspondence between MY attorney and the sister....totally unprofessional

Michelle initially help me through a 3 year legal fight with my ex for relocation and parenting time that finally concluded in 2020 where I was able to relocate with my son to Florida. It is NOT an exaggeration to say she saved me and my son! The parenting plan and supervised visitation plan she put together has preemptively prevent a lot of problem an uncooperative controlling ex try to cause and I came to appreciate her even more over the last 3 years. I trusted her so much that I kept the legal jurisdiction here in Chicago even after relocating to Florida because I wanted to retain her services. Michelle came through again this December 2022 when I needed to obtain a passport for travel outside of the country in late January and want to take my son with me but my co-parent refused to give permission. Even the GAL said that refusal was unreasonable. Michelle immediately took action to file motion and was able to get me court order approval to apply for my son's passport all on my own just in time for travel. This is warp legal speed since it was near Christmas Holiday. I ultimately did not go on this trip because of other logistical reason but definitely not because I don't have a passport for my son! She knew my case and did not forget any details even after so many years. She tells you up front what to expect (what will happen, how the process works, possible outcome, and anticipated cost). She supports you so you can think clearly and logically and keep your perspective. Her rates are more than reasonable and fair and she keeps your cost in mind. Controlling exes will never let you go, make sure you have someone like Michelle on your side! I am so glad I have her.

I had a judgement against me since 2015 for over a quarter of a million dollars. I had retained a prominent attorney to take the case and he got ill in 2018. I searched high and low for another attorney. No attorney wanted the fight. I found Attorney Matthew through a website engine search. I called him and the rest is history. Attorney Matthew though this case wasn't his field of expertise; he felt compelled to fight for me. Late 2022 a settlement was agreed upon. My life was on hold for close to 8 yrs. I thank Attorney Matthew for sticking it through with me. He was more than just my Attorney; He was my peace. Mind you, I only met him once and that was for a preliminary hearing close to the end of our journey. And when the case was settled, he humbly said to me; " Take care and good luck with everything in the future."

I was referred to her by a coworker who told me that "Michelle is the best thing that ever happened to me and my son." Honestly, Michelle is incredible. From the first consult, Michelle was honest and did not sugar coat potential outcomes. We identified my goals for my daughter and during this terrible 3 year process, she always kept that in mind. She brought up new ideas, talked through different strategies and the pros and cons, risks and rewards of all of them. She charged fairly and was on top of things, even when I wasn't. She did not fluff bills like the gal did. One of the status dates the gal was there for maybe 5 minutes. The gal charged a full hour. At no point did I ever feel that Michelle was doing that. She was very conscientious of finances for me, as I was a single mother who was owed thousands during this time. Michelle would call immediately after court and talk through things and did an unbelievable job of putting things in perspective for me. There were times I thought she should have a law degree and therapist degree! She is just thorough, thoughtful, compassionate, and faught very hard for the best interest of my daughter. The judges can be wild cards and sometimes lack just basic common sense, but she always, always prepared me for what could happen. Her communication is excellent. For parents who care about the child involved, this is a very high stress emotional situation and her level headed, direct, yet compassionate approach was perfect. I would recommend her to anyone.
