Michael Allen Weiman

Stay away from Michael Weiman of Weiman Silberman at all cost. He didn’t even show up for my trial which caused me to lose everything I had. When Judge Rivera asked Michael Weiman’s assistant why Mr. Weiman wasn't at trial, he said, “He's another client.” In my Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage, J...udge Rivera wrote, “Moreover, co-counsel informed the court that DAVID’s counsel also had another matter to attend to elsewhere.” The judge so upset with Mr. Weiman that she started the trial without him being present. His unethical behavior cost me everything. Michael Weiman was recommended to me by a family member who was friends with both Michael and his wife. If he’s not going to be professional under those circumstances, he won’t be for you either. This is just the tip of the iceberg regarding Michael Weiman’s unprofessional conduct during my case of which I will share at a later date. For now, I recommend that you avoid Michael Weiman of Weiman Silverman at all costs, you will be so grateful that you did.

If I were allowed to give zero stars I would! Michael is all talk and will not help you. In fact, he met with my ex-husband while he was representing me in my divorce case. He then asked me for full payment, and once I wrote the check, I never heard from him again. He left so many issues in my cas...e unsettled, and I had to hire another lawyer to fix the mess he left me with. He is unethical!

Michael is a five-star legal champion. I was referred to Michael by a trusted friend who had a positive experience and outcome with her turbulent divorce. He adeptly navigated my complex case and delivered excellent results. His billing practices were efficient, accurate, and detailed, and he... kept me well informed at all times. He also respected my time, which allowed me to focus on my career and family instead of stressful court appearances. I’ve worked with a number of attorneys through the years for personal and business reasons. Michael’s overall approach, strategy, and knowledge of case law and the legal system is unparalleled. He’s also able to absorb and recall vast amounts of information, and he’s extremely agile in court where he’s well respected. I highly recommend Michael to anyone who needs a great divorce attorney.

My divorce started off with an agreement between myself and my soon to be ex. Then when I received the papers she was asking unjustly for more than we had agreed. The well being of my children was now at stake. As a father, I was afraid that the courts would walk on me and my children would be lost i...n the mess. So I needed a lawyer, quick. Enter Michael Weiman. He came on the scene and assured me that all would be resolved in my children's best interest. After all, that has always been my biggest concern. My ex was very difficult; coming up with all kinds of stories and lies and asking for more than she was entitled. These accusations were very upsetting to me. Whenever I would become emotionally attached with the accusations and lies, Michael would be there to give me the legal side to keep my emotions in check. As a father it seemed like an uphill battle. In the end, Michael came through for my children. Now they have all that is needed. They have not lost time with their Father, and have an environment that gives them the best chance to succeed at what ever they choose.

Divorce, by definition, has a negative connotation. Michael Weiman has a way of making the negative a POSITIVE. Michael knows divorce law and the courtrooms of Chicago better than anyone I have worked with previously. He helped secure a future for me and my 4 children. I am forever grateful for his... expertise. Divorce proceedings, in the beginning, are really scary and I had no idea how to handle the tough situations that seemed to plague me and my children. Michael was always there for us. He always answered or returned my calls promptly ( I couldn't expect for him to answer my calls when he was in court). He helped me competently navigate through all the difficult problems that arose. He assisted in keeping me calm and level headed when I wanted to SCREAM. My divorce went on for what seemed like a lifetime. Michael was always there for us. He was on top of every issue and helped circumvent others. Michael negotiated a great settlement for me and my children and I know it was not an easy task. I highly recommend Michael Weiman to anyone that is in need of a great divorce attorney. Michael is professional, courteous, knowledgeable, timely and truly cares about helping his clients.
