The worst lawyer!!!!!!!

Having Steve as my lawyer, I actually felt like I wasn't even represented. He was very unprofessional! My Ex-wife got almost everything, I got all the bills and the shaft!!!! Never use this attorney!

The Best Lawyer For Divorce In Chicago

Steve is Honest, Very straight to the point, on time, trustworthy, and most important is fair. Many lawyers will tell you that he or she can get you this or that and keep taking money to try. Steve will cut right to the chase and tell you this is all you will get by law. He will not try to take yo...u or anyone else to the cleaners. When you speak to him he talks with authority. He is relentless in his works. He will not lead you down the wrong path and will be straight with you. My divorce was going on for years then my ex-wifes cousin referred me to him and after this I was done in 6 months. No games, just results. I would recommend him to anyone who would need his services. You are in good hands with him. Guaranteed!!!!

CHICAGO'S BEST ATTORNEY!!!

At the time I met Steve by referral from another attorney, I absolutely had no trust for man. After the first meeting with him, I knew he was "different". After several years of legal counsel from him, I was speechless at his work ethic, his knowledge of the laws governing family and finally, his c...aring about me, his client! I am HIGHLY RECOMMENDING Attorney Steve Wasko. In fact, I personally think he should be a Cook County Judge in family court....a reality show would be in order too! Thanks Steve!

Great Representation!

Steven Wasko is a lawyer who commands respect in his demeanor and knowledge of family law. His honesty is beyond reproach even when you would rather have a sugar-coating on the facts. I say this because divorce is emotional, difficult and the issues concerning children and property are a heavy load. ...When divorce is the only real option as in my case, Mr. Wasko makes the process as painless as possible. What I especially admired about him is that he constantly respects your time with him. He works collaboratively for the best interest of your family.
