Thomas William Hunter

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.

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.

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.

This firm provided too much service for my case. In my opinion, they overstep the needs assessment of my case. They provided plenty of litigation opportunity, but provided almost no creative solutions to mediate, negotiate, or otherwise resolve matters throughtout the entire divorce process. They f...ailed to consult with or take on an additonal attorney who specialized in criminal defense, after my ex-spouse had me arrested twice. He provided poor advice about the criminal aspect or consequences of that part of my case, and now those portions will be on my records for a lifetime, with no expungement or sealing opportunity. His firm also knew in the early stages, about my ability to pay his fees, and overserviced my file, churning the litigation and over extending the discovery process, causing excessive billing. Lastly, the final results of my case demonstrate his lack of ability to successfully resolve my case; my ex moved out of state with our children, I was left with no assets and was left to file bankruptcy because of almost $200,000 in attorney fees, and as of this review, I am back in court, with a new attorney defending from my ex because of a poorly negotiated settlement document.

Mr. Hunter has represented me several times over the years. I have found that although Mr. Hunter cannot and did not guarantee any results for me, he worked diligently towards excellent results that I did not think were possible to achieve. Mr Hunter explained the work that would be done on my case,... and charged only for work done on my case in my behalf. I have a magnitude of respect for Thomas W. Hunter and his staff. I have and would refer him to any of my family and friends. When my own child needed an attorney for a private family matter, Mr. Hunter handled my child's case in the same professional manner he did my own. Mr. Hunter's staff has remained with him for many years and I find that remarkable. Thomas W. Hunter is thorough, responsive and complete.
