James R. Doerr ... Lavelle Law, LTD representation review...
Jim Doerr, is a knowledgeable professional lawyer, who recently represented me in a traffic case in the 3rd District-Cook County Circuit Court, in Rolling Meadows, Illinois. Jim kept me well informed during the entire legal process, professionally represented me in court and followed through with every proceeding, including when I was unable to attend court. Jim is a great asset to the Lavelle Law firm where he is employed. I will be recommending him to ANYONE who is in need of legal representation, as well as highly recommending him on this web based site. If you are in need of an attorney, whether it be consultation or representation contact Jim directly at the Lavelle Law office at (847) 241-1798 or [email protected] or www.lavellelaw.com....They have offices in Chicago downtown or his office in Schaumburg, Illinois. I am very happy of the feeling of walking out of court knowing that I had Jim's full professional legal representation on my side of the law. Thank you Jim for your superb legal representation...

Success
Unfortunately when you are in a position to have to hire a lawyer it isn't a good thing. After meeting with James "Rhino" Doerr it was apparent that he walked softly but his knowledge & demeanor was powerful. He listened to my concerns, informed me of what my options where and was patient because. At the end of the process the Judge informed me on great a job James did and I should be appreciative, which I was. A good man who did a great job!

secretary of state
Many of the details from the secretary of state seemed clear before I sought legal advice. During my first meeting with James it was very clear there were many gray areas and also details I did not realize were so important. We discussed the steps needed to be taken and all the possible results. I was informed of all costs, time frames etc.. I'm happy to say all went as planned and the best outcome was achieved.
