David R. Del Re

David has been my attorney for nearly seven years, representing me during my divorce and in all post-decree matters. He and Fiona were always punctual with scheduled appointments/teleconferences and his firm's correspondence and invoicing kept me fully apprised as to how my case was progressing. Davi...d was especially adept at being able to balance zealous advocacy while maintaining compassion toward my ex-spouse post-decree when she elected to file certain matters and represent herself pro se. As a practicing regulatory attorney, I was able to understand many aspects of my case though David would frequently (and in a timely fashion) bring up nuances of law that we needed to further evaluate. His thorough representation made me feel as though I had a trusted advisor who actually cared about the outcome of my case and who wanted me to understand even those nuances that I would otherwise have most certainly overlooked. David is a model attorney that others should aspire to be.

I interviewed quite a number of attorneys before hiring David Del Re to represent me in my divorce proceedings ending a 30 year marriage. My wife was CFO for a disreputable private individual and most of the firms I spoke with were quite frankly afraid of the reputation of my wife's employer who was... paying all of her legal fees with the NATION's LARGEST Matrimonial Law Firm. Needless to say, my chances looked pretty bleak. She seemed to hold all of the Aces and I was positioned to be squashed like a grape in court.....but that didn't happen because David Del Re fearlessly accepted my case and went to war for me. My ex's legal team put me through every imaginable legal obstacle they could devise. David counter-punched at every opportunity and continued to score point upon point in the court and moved the ball down the field against a seemingly ominous law firm with millions upon millions of dollars in available assets and numerous ex-judges on their team. Long story, short version: after a FOUR YEAR battle, David Del Re and Fiona McCormick obtained an incredible judgment for me in a process that was nothing short of grueling. David and Fiona took command in the courtroom during my FOUR DAY trial and absolutely overwhelmed the opposition who were lead by an ex-judge with over 20 years' experience on the bench. David and Fiona just plain out-lawyered the opposition and buried them. I actually felt bad for my ex with how inept her legal team looked compared to mine....even though she outspent me 3:1. YES! That is right. David Del Re took on the giant at 1/3 the cost of his opposition and CRUSHED IT!! If you want to win with a legal team who will represent you with the honor and integrity your reputation deserves, call the offices of David Del Re RIGHT NOW! I am getting phone calls and emails from other friends who work in the legal profession who are congratulating me for an incredible win over this powerhouse law firm (SD&F) and wanting to know more about David Del Re and Fiona McCormick. All I can say is I basically trusted them with my life and they protected me against incredible odds. I feel confident in being able to move on with my life now. Thank you David, Fiona, Rachel, Courtney and Nidia as well as anyone else who worked on my case since 2011.

I was fortunate enough to find and use the services of David Del Re and his law practice to assist in a custody battle. I was able to get Sole Custody of my 8 year old daughter and after several years of having to go through the ringer with my ex, David was able to take on my case quickly and execute... so we were on the offensive instead of on the defense in our case. He used the proof or information I had and put it to good use so we were able to have a likely outcome and in the end in Trial. As a proud Father I would definitely refer David and his office to any person who is looking for someone to have their back and be efficient to serve the Best Interests of the Child. So glad I hired this lawyer and you should too.

I was in a custody fight for my 2 children. After a year and a half with my first lawyer and thousands of dollars spent I was nowhere. I found David and after my first meeting with him I felt very confident with him on my case. He was very honest with me telling me that my case would not be easy b...eing a father fighting for custody. From the beginning he took charge and I was extremely pleased with the way he handled my case. If you think any lawyer has the time to be at your beckon call you have never dealt with lawyers. They have a ton of cases and are very busy. David always responded to my emails and questions and took the time to keep me informed. After a long case and a lot of frustration with the court system, David worked very hard to win me custody of my children. He is well worth every penny I spent on him. I would highly recommend David to anybody who is looking for a lawyer. David is a lawyer who knows what he is doing and won't waste your money.

If you are realistic and want a brutally honest assessment of your expectations in your divorce, make an appointment to see David. He is very experienced, knowledgeable in the matters of family law and is equally comfortable in the ways of the Lake County court system. He represented me quite skil...lfully at my divorce trial and did so at a very fair price. Importantly, he was always up front about what he could or couldn't get for me. He could have charged more money but billed me less out of concern for me. When has your lawyer done that for you? You can go ahead and hire a high priced divorce specialist and think you'll get everything you want ( because you won't ) or you can hire a pragmatic negotiator who gets an unpleasant job done in the most cost efficient manner possible. I highly recommend this attorney
