Joseph was very helpful with us on getting our security deposit back from our landlord. Gave us all the information we needed and what to expect when it comes to settlements and court cases if needed. He was very helpful in answering our questions we had about certain legal things we didn’t understand properly. He was very kind and he’s Law firm was helpful and very kind from the beginning when filing the settlement. He was very successful on getting our claim settlement settled with the landlords. We ended up recovering x3 more than what our security deposit was. I highly recommend Jospeh for any legal Issues you may have or if anyone you know has legal issues. He is very successful on getting the work accomplished, very kind and very responsive and always keeps you up to date with your legal issue. He gets the job done!

It was great working with Andy to get my issue resolved. Thank you for your responsiveness, and willingness to help me not only understand, but teach me through the process. And finally, thank you for helping me get the best outcome!

My husband & I had a really great experience with Brabrander Law. Andy is very knowledgeable. I learned so much about laws & our rights just by doing business with him. He really will fight for you until the end. The communication was excellent from beginning to end. Most of the communication was through phone/email which was perfect for working parents with 2 little ones. We called so many firms and carefully read all reviews for each & we are so lucky to have chosen Brabrander Law. I don’t believe we would’ve had an experience as great as this one anywhere else. Thanks Andy!!

Andy has helped me multiple times now and every time has really been a pleasure. I cannot say enough good things about him as a lawyer.

Andy demonstrates a high level of professionalism, offering clear and expert guidance. I wholeheartedly endorse him as an excellent choice for a tenant attorney.

Thank you for advice to me - existing tenant, at the time of deconverson. Your advice has helped me to check my existing lease, make sure to look for out clause etc. All this helped me in locking the rent for as much time as on the lease. Thank you very much.

We were forced to seek legal help when our landlord would not give us our security deposit back. Andy was so helpful through the process. We really appreciated the complimentary phone call we had at the beginning, and when we moved forward with the process, Andy was very transparent about the process, always available to answer our questions, and was incredibly helpful throughout the process. We were able to get our deposit back and an additional settlement amount all without going to court. We could not be more pleased with Andy and how everything turned out!

Brabender Law is great! My wife and I had an issue with landlord not returning security deposit. When we contacted Andy, he asked a lot of questions to make sure we had a case against the landlord. Once Andy got a better picture of the situation, he walked us through the process. Andy was very professional and patient. He answered all our questions and was always available. Andy was able to get the landlord to return our security deposit and pay the attorney's fees. We had a great experience working with Andy. We highly recommend him.

This was my first time contacting a lawyer. I appreciate that Andy took time for an initial (free) consultation to understand my situation and explained both the benefits and risks to me, including potential outcomes. He made me feel at ease by disclosing his fees were contingent based on a small portion of any recovered money (which was one of my concerns from the get-go). He is very knowledgeable with the Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance (RLTO) by asking relevant questions to formulate a detailed plan. Whenever I had a question or wanted to think about the next steps, Andy promptly responded to me. He empowered during a difficult time where I had thought the outcome was hopeless. Andy was able to successfully resolve my dispute. Overall, I highly recommend Brabender Law.

Mr. Brabender explained that trying to evict a live-in during Covid pandemic is very difficult. He advised us to seek a Landlord/Tenant lawyer.

Andy was great, from the initial phone consultation to the final resolution of my case. He clearly explained to me all the steps required, what to expect based on his experience, and also things that I can consider in the future in order to even better protect myself from landlord noncompliance with the Chicago RLTO. I appreciate his availability, quick responses, and his use of easy-to-use technical solutions for things like scheduling calls, signing documents, and submitting information to him that was pertinent to my case. All in all my experience with Andy was incredibly positive and I strongly recommend him for tenants interested in understanding or pursuing claims under the RLTO.

I would highly recommend Andy Brabender & his law firm. He helped me recover my security deposit. He talked me through every step of the way, everything was explained in a way I could understand & he made it very easy. He is very thorough & maintained great communication throughout my case. He exceeded all my expectations & I would not hesitate to call him again.
