Melissa provided exceptional support throughout my case, which extended over a year. Her communication skills were outstanding, and she consistently demonstrated kindness and dedication. Thanks to her efforts, my felony charges were dropped. I am extremely satisfied with her representation and highly recommend her services.

Melissa is the ultimate professional and someone who truly and deeply cares about her clients! I've worked with her for over a decade and she is my top choice when it comes to representation. She is always on top of her game and she has earned the respect and admiration of court personnel in every court we've collaborated before. Melissa always puts her clients first and her court ethics are the best I've seen.

Melissa is a very professional defense lawyer. She answered all my questions and was very respectful. I would highly recommend her if you need assistance defending your case. I was charged with a DUI and all the charges against me were dropped and my case was dismissed. I could not be happier with the services she provided me.

Melissa went above & beyond for me on multiple fronts. She's super knowledgeable, and a fantastic communicator, on top of clearly laying out your options. Once a decision is made, she executes the objective. She doesn't know this, but she would make a hell of a shrink too. Would highly recommend her for representation if need be.

I hired Melissa for an out-of-state petitioner application for an informal hearing for reinstatement of a revoked license due to two previous DUIs in Cook County, Illinois. Melissa responded to all my messages in a timely manner via email and adjusted to my schedule by responding on the weekends including Sunday nights. She never went longer than an hour or two without a response and answered any and all questions I had regarding this matter. She also sent in all my paperwork at the earliest time possible as time was of the essence with my case. She checked in on me with follow-ups regarding the status of my application. With her assistance, I was granted full reinstatement of my driving privileges after our first attempt. I highly recommend her services for DUIs, driver’s license reinstatement and anything else she specializes in as she was professional, communicative, timely, empathetic and resourceful.

Attorney Melissa smejkal did a great job. I contact her for probation violation, and she responded fast and listen what I had to say, and took my case when I need a lawyer after my probation officer sent a petition to the judge for 3 violation, as in 2 month she was able to get me good result and no jail time. She was honest and foward, answer your question anytime when you don’t understand of the situation, I had a great experience with Melissa, I would highly recommend her no doubt for a case like mine.

Within 24 hours of hiring Melissa, she had my case records pulled and a court date set within a week. She knows the criminal court system and gets to know her client, as well, in order to fight for you and the best possible outcome. She's a good advisor and negotiator. My case, which haunted me for 5 years was closed by the end of the week. Awesome Lawyer!!
