We are so glad that we decided to use Clancy & Associates to guide us in establishing guardianship and a special needs trust for our child. Dealing with all of the aspects of parenting a child with special needs can be overwhelming at times, so to have a law firm be so supportive and kind in their interactions with us made the process seem less intimidating and more accessible to us. Their competence, expertise, and professionalism paired with their personal and compassionate approach is a terrific combination. We highly recommend Clancy & Associates.

I highly recommend Clancy and Associates for estate planning. Katie is very responsive and knowledgeable and was able to craft a plan tailored to our needs. We had a great experience throughout the whole process with the firm.

This law firm is the best

I have been a client of Chitkowski Law for almost 30 years. They have consistently given my company sound legal guidance and counsel. John always tries to find the most effective solution to your problem at hand. I highly recommend John and his team. Dave Brady OAK Design and Construction Inc.

Did not return my phone call at all. I tried to contact them 2 times. I guess business is not important to them. They should have just said that though, rather than say "we'll help u shortly, expect a call back soon."....maybe my case was not what they are used to, but very unprofessional.....dont use this firm.

I am forever grateful for the introduction to Katie Clancy a year ago. I have worked with several Estate Planning and Special Needs Attorneys in multiple states over the past 30 years but NONE compare to Katie regarding the depth of her knowledge, expertise, insights, thoughtful recommendations, counsel and compassion. In addition, she has an extensive network of professionals with whom she works who have also proven to be invaluable advisors and provide additional counsel and resources. I would strongly encourage parents planning their estate and providing for their children with special needs to reach out to Katie Clancy.

You know the old addage "You get exactly what you pay for"? It is true...so true. Ten years ago we made a choice to work with a "lesser expensive" attorney to draw up our son's SNT. We were given a swiss cheese document that affected his SSI eligibility (years of appeals with an attorney before he was given eligibility), and we were not given adequate information regarding the management of said trust. Did we make mistakes? We sure did. Did we ask our attorney to review the document he wrote and give us more guidance? Yes. He said that there was nothing wrong with the document, and gave us zero guidance. He did, however, send us another bill. Fast forward to the present, and we just completed a new Third Party SNT (along with our Wills, POAs, etc) with Katie Clancy & Associates in Lisle. We had two working meetings along with ample time to review all our documents, a secure portal to enhance our ability to share past documents with her, extremely professional staff to work with, and the cherry on the top was Katie herself giving us more information than we could have asked for. I cannot recommend her more highly! If you're at the beginning of this process, I urge you to NOT put yourself through the wringer like we did. Thank you, Katie, for allowing us to breathe and lifting a weight off our shoulders!
