DCFS attorney and family law

My experience with Mr. Hunter was a good one. He helped and is still helping me deal with DCFS case workers. I had a crazy case worker for my in home daycare who literally harassed me to the point I lost my business. Thomas Hunter stepped in and the harrassment has stopped. He always called me back, ...kept me Informed every time he talked to someone, left me emails, and was very considerate of my emotional state during the torture of DCFS. This entity has way too much power and you need a shark of an attorney to go up against this agency. I would recommend Thomas Hunter to anyone that needs to be protected from DCFS. Brenda N

Top Notch Attorney

Thomas W. Hunter successfully represented me in my divorce case and when I found myself in need of legal services 10 years later when all of the terms of the divorce were not being fulfilled I, of course, called Tom Hunter. My husband was difficult to deal with and very unreasonable. Thankfully,... I had Tom to keep on top of things and make sure I received everything that was rightfully due to my child and me. Tom Hunter is one of the best family law attorneys in the Chicago area and I was lucky I had him fighting for me. Tom and his staff were always helpful, friendly and understanding. Tom was always available to me by cell phone, and returned my calls promptly. I always knew what was happening in the case and Tom answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns. I recommend Thomas W. Hunter if you are in need of a family law attorney.

Great Lawyer

Divorce is not something anyone wants to go through, but Mr. Hunter made the process much easier from start to finish. He was available to answer questions at any point and I felt thoroughly ready for the court process when the time came. His experience in the field speaks volumes and I could compl...etely trust that he would fight to get the results I wanted. His office staff was also extremely friendly and helpful any time I would call or go to the office. I would strongly recommend to anyone looking for an experienced family attorney.

Seasoned Professional

Tom and his staff are very organized, methodical, and very professional! Tom fully invests himself into his clients cases and offers honest straightforward advice. You never feel like you are alone in your situation. Tom Hunter was my counsel in a pre decree matter. I hired Tom because it was clear ...he was highly knowledgeable and experienced at family law. I was referred to him by a friend who found him very reliable and easy to communicate with. He was always available when my husband would harass me. That was important because I knew very little about the law and I was wary about what I was getting into. Going to court always makes me nervous so I especially appreciated when he would meet with me before court and explain what to expect. I was very satisfied with his work. Tom was always prepared and presented the case well.
