I asked a friend to recommend a lawyer to help my husband and I update our health and end-of-life legal documents. My friend recommended Bob Kealy. We’re very grateful for that recommendation. Bob handled our request in a professional yet friendly manner. He was patient with our questions and responsive to our concerns. He went out of his way to make the experience as easy as possible by meeting with us on Saturdays in our own home . We’ve already referred friends to Bob because we know they’ll receive the same attentive service at a very fair price.

We hired Attorney Bob Kealy to handle the closing on the sale of our Town House in Highland Park. It was critical that we close as quickly as possible as we had already purchased a new home and were scheduled to close on the new home within three weeks. We thought everything was in order, but we learned that a FEMA map showed that a tiny corner of the property we were selling was in a Flood Plain, when it actually was not. The buyers objected and threatened to cancel the deal. Bob went to work to correct the error working with FEMA and other City and State Agencies and was able to prove that the map was in error and none of the property was in the Flood Plain. His diligence and hard work enabled us to close the deal on time and move into our new home as scheduled. Without Bob's expertise we would be sitting with 2 houses---not an ideal situation considering the housing market at the time We look forward to continue working with Bob Kealy.

I have known Bob Kealy for over 30 years. I am a practicing lawyer in Chicago for 48 years myself and have had many occasions to refer individuals to Bob for estate planning, small business advice and real estate transactions. They have all reported back to me their complete satisfaction with Bob's services. Bob is a people person who relates very well to his clients and at all times has their best interests at heart. Bob is bright, diligent and completes his tasks in a timely and cost-effective manner. It is a pleasure and a privilege to know him and count him as one of my friends.

I have known Bob personally and professionally for over 15 years. He has advised me through many situations, helped us through real estate transactions, and prepared our trust, will and powers of attorney. Throughout those years I have seen him help anyone in his path, tirelessly returning calls, researching and making the extra effort to serve the client. We are blessed to have him as a trusted friend and professional!

Bob is an absolutely first rate attorney. He is thorough and meticulous in everything he does. But what truly sets him apart is his ability to explain the process with absolute clarity and infinite patience so that even the most apprehensive client can accomplish complex legal tasks successfully, confidently, and know that they are in good hands. I have not met another attorney who combines the professional and personal skills that consistently make Bob my "go to guy." You will not be disappointed with him.

Recently we commissioned Robert Kealy to prepare a Trust for us. He was knowledgeable, precise and followed through on every detail in a timely manner. He could not have been more helpful to us. M. Nelsen

Bob put together my mom’s will and trust. She suddenly passed away and I needed immediate help to get her affairs in order. Bob was there for me right away, day or night. He sent step by step details about what had to be done, and took care of many of those details himself. Bob is a caring and compassionate person who helped me and my family during a very painful time. I can’t thank him enough.

I have used lawyers for many reasons, being a business owner, over the years. It's funny because now I look for that dollar sign posted on their foreheads. Thus when I meet them for the first time I'll ask immediately "Am I being charged starting now?". Not with Bob. He does his job and treats you will respect. Too bad he's one of the few.

My husband and I sought Bob's legal expertise to compose our wills and powers of attorney. We had many questions, and Bob treated us with care and patience. Our documents were completed in a timely fashion and with great efficiency. He is a true professional, and we have recommended him to family and friends. Therese J.

Best attorney around experts in many areas!

I've worked with Bob on a few occasions and he did an outstanding job! He was very personable and explained things in a very coherent way. There were times when he had to deal with other parties to solve problems and he got along with them all great. He's a true professional!

Very trusted team. Thanks for your services
