I’ve known and liked the owner for a decade. We’re Facebook friends, and I’ve sent friends to him. I can’t believe how unprofessional he was when taking my case. He agreed to be my attorney then passed me off to a brand new attorney who was a lovely person, but made many mistakes costing me thousands. We are currently disputing the bill and considering going to the states attorney to report them after the many, many mistakes and ridiculous charges. Use someone else. Sad to say this. I liked them very much personally, but professional they charged us such ridiculous amounts that we had to stop the “bleeding” and negotiate ourselves so we could drop them. $20,000 later we still can’t get answers to our most basic questions. Sad to say this…use another firm.

I just want to say the bruining law has did great on my case they kept in contact all the time with me threw my whole case and served justice for me and got me what i deserved

Had Nathan Reyes represent me and he was fantastic to work with. Had great communication and such an honest guy. I would highly recommend!

The worst experience of my life!! I had outrageous bills, zero communication and I was charged for everything under the sun! I regret hiring them, and now 2 years later they are hounding me for more money! This is after the attory withdrew and I found out that my basic court fees weren't even paid!! I had to finish on my own and was put thru more stress an any person should have to endure!!! I wouldn't recommend this firm to anybody!!!!

Stay away from them. Horrible service. All they care is how to get your money.

I recently worked with Mary Sump for my divorce and she is extremely knowledgeable, prompt, and professional, but yet relatable. She always made me feel comfortable through a difficult situation. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through this. She is very efficient and thorough! I’m very happy how the divorce turned out!

Bruning and Associates took great care of me and helped me resolve my issues quickly.

I've been working with Bruning & Associates and I highly recommend Kevin. He's going above and beyond in working with my case and researching issues for us. He's been friendly, prompt, and professional. I can't say enough good things and appreciate his help very much!

Mary Sump recently represented me in a Family Law case. I engaged her as my attorney because I received great feedback from a friend that she had represented. Working with Mary, I found her to be very professional, ethical and extremely knowledgeable of the law as it applied to my situation. She took time to understand the facts of my case; thoroughly explained my options; proposed strategies and then executed those strategies flawlessly in court. Also, Mary responded to all of my emails and phone call on a timely basis and I always felt like I was her only client. Finally, I had Mary establish my Trust, Living Will and Power of Attorney documents. She did an excellent job. She really got to know me my financial goals and was able to structure these documents to protect my Estate. Finally, and most importantly, Mary did her best to minimize the amount of fees that I had to pay. I know that I received the best value for the services that she provided. I personally think that Mary is one of the BEST attorneys in McHenry County and Bruning and Associates are fortunate to have her on their team!

Mel Bruett is hands down the best attorney in Chicagoland. I’ve hired her and her associates to represent me and my business in a contractual dispute. As well as recommending her to my mother for her divorce and my best friend for hers! She is incredibly knowledgeable in her field, and if she doesn’t know it, there is always someone on there team to assist! I respect her honesty and her ability to clearly explain the situation when my emotions got the best of me. Hire her if you want to WIN.

Mary Sump is an outstanding attorney! She helped with a family issue that is nothing short of miraculous. She is very informative and explains all the details of the process. I would highly recommend Ms. Sump for any of your legal needs.
