John August Staas

Mr. Staas has provided legal assistance to me several times over the past 15 years. On a personal level he has helped me with a parenting agreement and was able to resolve an extremely complicated inheritance situation with my Spanish aunt that involved three states and two countries. On a profession...al level, he assisted a grassroots not-for-profit organization in which more than 80 volunteers (including myself) and staff sued the board of directors for control of the organization. With this case, he gave us countless hours in pro bono assistance over two years. In all of these instances, Mr. Staas was a sympathetic advocate, an objective and unflappable strategist, and an honest, forthright adviser. Every case had a positive outcome. I have recommended him to friends and I would hire him again without a second thought.

Mr. Staas handled my divorce several years ago with accurate advice and timely preparation of the necessary documents for the court appearance. His service was professional and efficient, and moreso, compassionate towards the emotional difficulty that is attached to any divorce. I very much appreciat...ed the even and grounded attention he gave to the divorce. I have since consulted with Mr. Staas on issues of family trusts. I highly recommend Mr. Staas to anyone seeking experienced legal representation.

Mr Staas did a great job for me on a very high profile and very complex case, it lasted over 3 years, with tons of problems from my x wife. Mr Staas did a great job for me, he even brought in another Lawyer to help with moving case from the subs. to the chicago , where i got a more then fair judge ... I would say he is the best Lawyer i ever hired !
