Exceptional Representation and an Incredible Team

I can’t say enough good things about David and his entire team. Going through a divorce and custody case is one of the hardest things a person can experience, and from day one I felt supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. David is an exceptional attorney—knowledgeable, honest, strategic, an...d always willing to take the time to explain every step of the process. He fought for what was fair while keeping me grounded through an incredibly difficult time. Courtney, John, Rachel, Elsa, and everyone in the office were wonderful. They were responsive, kind, organized, and always made me feel like my questions mattered. Every interaction reflected professionalism and compassion. Thanks to their dedication, my son and I can finally move forward with peace of mind. I will always be grateful for everything they did for our family. If you’re looking for a law firm that truly cares about its clients while providing outstanding legal representation, I recommend them without hesitation.

Best Attorney

After having a bad experience with my first attorney , and thousands of dollars waisted I was worried about hiring a new attorney. I was referred to David by a lake county judge, he Is that respected. My ex had a top partner at one of the biggest law firms. David had no problem standing up to her, an...d standing up for what was best for my child. David and Courtney were very responsive and there for me whenever I needed them. Would recommend David to anyone who needs a family attorney!

I couldn't be happier!

David Del Re and all of his associates are helpful, understanding and patient. They all take the time to explain the process step by step so that you completely understand what is going on. Law and all of its proceedings can be overwhelming especially when you are not in that field of work and dealin...g with the emotions of divorce and or custody. David and his team were very epithetic towards me and I know they treat each of their clients the same way! I truly feel they do their very best to do what is right for everyone involved most importantly the child(ren) . I have referred a few friends of mine to him and they have all been happy with him as well!

Personal and professional team that went above and beyond.

I did some research and met with a couple of other attorneys before I found David del Re and Associates. I was seeking relocation and primary physical allocation for my son I had from a previous relationship. We were never married, and we had been primarily structuring a custody schedule on our own w...ithout court intervention. We split our parenting time quite equally, but my husband was being relocated for work out of state. I was told by one lawyer that I had no chance of succeeding, and another that didn't give me the attention I felt I needed to feel comfortable moving forward. When I met with David for our initial consultation, I left his office feeling like I had found what I was looking for in an attorney. An honest, down to earth, no nonsense attorney with integrity. I moved forward, with a very restrictive timeline, approximately three months between filing for relocation and allocation, to the date we had to leave Illinois. My sons father fought us very hard, and his lawyer ultimately used whatever gutless tactics she could to portray me as an unfit mother. David and Kat (another AMAZING attorney in his office) and their team took my emails, frantic calls, and answered them quickly, and not to mention kept me calm through one of the hardest things I have ever gone through. We ultimately did end up going through a hearing, which resulted in an agreement, but only because our judge urged us to because he was going to grant me the relocation. But regardless, it was the professionalism and character that my attorneys conveyed through their work that got us that far. If anyone asked me to refer them to an attorney I wouldn't hesitate a second to recommend their office. And while David was an absolute hard hitting lawyer, Kat Allen was my go to contact that kept me in the loop and was always capable of speaking to me on my level and extended empathy for the circumstances. They beyond saved my life, because without their services I can't say what position my family would be in now. My sons father and I still maintain a close relationship, and a liberal parenting and visitation schedule, because that is what was important and that is what we have dedicated ourselves to doing. I'm forever grateful I found David del Re and Associates.

Fortunate to find David R. Del Re

I was fortunate to find Attorney David after my previous attorney took me for $13,000 over 3 weeks. David was honest, professional, kind, and a strong advocate for my little family (during a difficult divorce and child custody case). I would recommend him to anyone looking for an individual who is fa...ir, a good listener, and excellent at communicating (without charging all those hidden fees).
