Lucas C. Figiel

I feel I am required to post this review should another father find themselves in my shoes. I hope whoever is reading this realizes your not the first and you will not be the last to go through this. I am posting this review because my family has survived an experience I would not want an enemy to ex...perience. My middle daughter mentioned that I tugged her ear as a means of reprimanding her in a CPS school. Before I knew it, DCFS was involved, and for the first time in my life I found myself on the offender side of the law. The situation became far worse when my wife was compelled by DCFS to obtain an order of protection in order to prevent our children from being forcefully placed into foster care. This compounded with financial difficulties present in my marriage catapulted my marriage into divorce. The dreams and aspirations which motivated me to provide for my family were were replaced with negative concerns of trying to piece my life back together. DCFS defense is a niche field, All I know is I was drowning in fear. I had “dug myself into a bigger hole” with DCFS and had a “founded finding” this meant ZERO parenting time. A No contact order of protection made reconciling my marriage impossible. Lucas just kept telling me “take a chill pill” and was not phased by any of my problems, he saw them as tasks on a to do list that had a positive result of separation. I threw another wrench into Lucas's work by requesting that this NOT end in divorce. He sighted past experiences and said anything is possible but it all comes down to your wife's decision. In time the DCFS case turned into an unfounded on an appeal. After more then 60 days of not having seen or hearing my children's voices I had visitation. Do not speak to anyone without speaking to Lucas first. Fast forward, I spent the most beautiful Christmas and new years with my wife and children. Figiel's invoices were more then fair when compared to the other lawyers I am still paying on and regret having met. In my field, I see many rendering services that may appear more affordable per hour, but the best value comes from efficiency, usually due to having the right tools or knowledge from experience. Figiel has the right tools and knowledge from experience.

Lucas Figiel is all you need if you need a family lawyer. Last year I decided to leave my abusive marriage and get a divorce, I hired Mr. Figiel to handle the divorce procedure. My than husband was determined not to allow the divorce and tried to make this process as difficult as possible; fighting e...very aspect of the divorce from custody to child support and dragging the process as much as he could. Lucas stood by me throughout this long divorce process, always giving me the correct advice and support every concern I had. Mr. Lucas achieved the results I was hoping for; my two kids live with me and my Ex-husband paying a fair amount of child support. I’m glad Mr. Figiel was on my side throughout this difficult time.

Lucas eviscerated my ex-wife. Lucas protected me against false allegations in a request for an order of protection. I ended up with our home and money from her 401(k) and eventually obtained sole custody. Our daughter lives with me and my ex-wife pays me child support. I am not responsible for any ...transportation related to our daughter. Lucas is very effective, loyal and professional. I would highly recommend his services.

I hired Lucas to help me with divorce and child custody which had a great outcome. I highly recommend him to anyone going through a challenging divorce. He was the only attorney I contacted who really heard me out, understood my unique situation and told me it was worth pursuing child custody. I neve...r felt like he was trying to rack up fees unnecessarily. Lucas is very professional and responsive – he will call or email you back. I am so happy I called him to represent me – a total class act.

If you are looking for an attorney that is on point with everything and I mean everything Lucas is definitely the man you are looking for. Not only does he build a relationship with his clients he has a great way of making you feel relaxed throughout the whole process. He is available at all times wh...en you have any questions! He will carefully study your case and aside from being very organized. He is a beast in court! He is a very competative attorney, and most importantly he focuses 100% on what will be in the best interest of the child! I couldn't be any happier with Lucas! If you are currently seeking a good attorney Figiel Law will exceed your expectations!
