A Very Knowledgeable Attorney

My experience with Mr. Plantz was phenomenal. He did excellent work on my child custody case and highly recommend him to anyone who’s looking for assistance on their case.

You Will Not Be Disappointed!

I can’t begin to put into words how amazing Attorney Plantz is. I had gone through 3 attorneys over 6 years until I came into contact with Robert Plantz. I had just about given up hope when it came to custody with my son’s father. The attorneys I hired before him never stood up or fought for me. I sp...ent years being put down by my sons fathers attorney, and I always settled. Robert gave me hope, and comfort that I was in great hands. He’s straight forward, honest, and most importantly he fights for his clients!!! His staff is absolutely amazing. It’s so rare to find an attorney that has a great team from top to bottom. His receptionist is always so friendly, and willing to help in whatever way she can. Carmen his paralegal is ALWAYS on top of things. If Robert wasn’t available he always made sure Alex jumped in to help with my needs right away, and he is a great pleasure to work with as well. My only regret was that he wasn’t my first attorney, but I can guarantee as long as his firms doors are open he will always have my business. I highly recommend this law firm! I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.

Best decision I have ever made!!!

If you want the best attorney in NWI/Chicagoland area, look no further!!! I had not seen or spoken to my minor children in four years. I had been fighting the family court system in Kansas for 4 years, spending tens of thousands of dollars and getting nowhere. I was still 100% out if my children's ...lives. My ex moved the case to indiana and I knew I would never see my kids again. I was mentally and physically broken and ready to give up. How do you hire an attorney from another state that you don't know anything about?! After reading the online reviews, I hired Attorney Robert Plantz. The first hearing with Atty Plantz as my attorney, the judge ruled that I was going to be in my children's lives, immediately. With in the next 6 weeks I was not only talking to my children but I actually saw them in person. Six weeks after my first hearing we had a progress hearing and the judge told me to plan on having my kids half of the summer!!! Robert was able to achieve the impossible !!! He made miracles happen in very very short order. I can not say enough good things about my experience or the results he was able to achieve for my family.

Children custody

Robert was amazing. Was able to get my daughter back into the start from half way across the country in just weeks. Straight shooter and delivered as promised. Could not have done more for my family and me.

Divorce

Robert Plantz and Associates has been a wonderful team to have during a very annoying divorce. From the moment I walked into his office I was welcomed and helped. Started with an emergency restraining order, divorce, supervised visits for my kids and the x to now just dealing with child support issue...s. I HIGHLY recommend him.
