WORST divorce lawyer in Illinois!

Stay away from this lawyer! He colluded with my ex to write the final divorce decree and never explained what exactly is in the document. He does not care about his clients, just wants to make money. Puts on a good front to act as if he cares. Please note that all the good reviews were mostly from ye...ars ago.

Stay Away From Michael Weiman at All Cost!!

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.

Best in IL

The best attorney in all of IL and possibly the US. Very level headed and can get things done smoothly and efficiently. Had an attorney prior that took thousands and did not accomplish a single item. Michael accomplished everything and did everything he promised. Protected my father’s rights in the... parenting agreement, settled and negotiated a successful divorce settlement. Rest easy when he is at the driver seat, cause you have the best. Quick thinker and always 10 steps ahead of the other attorney. If you hire him, you have the best. If you’re going against him, be very scared. Don’t try and play hardball, you will lose.

Five-Star Legal Champion

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.

Saved me and my kids

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.
