Excellent Representation

Contacted Mr. Salon on recommendation from family member for representation in a Domestic Battery case. He responded right away and was able to set up a consultation within a week. He communicated all the important details and updates to me throughout the entire case and excellent representation over...all. Due to his persistent negotiations with the Lake County State's Attorney's office, my charges were eventually dismissed. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a defense lawyer in Lake County.

Thankful that I chose Richard Salon to represent me

I was strongly recommended to Mr. Salon by a several of my friends. I was facing a felony DUI which can result in jail time. In addition, I was also charged with speeding and resisting arrest. He was very helpful from start to finish of a very low point in my life. He was excellent in communication a...nd always return my phone calls in a timely manner. I had a total of three court appearances and after each he sat down with me to ensure I understood exactly what was going on. I never once felt confused during the whole process. Mr. Salon was worked his magic in the court room and was able to negotiate a deal that I couldn’t refuse. DUI and speeding dismissed and resisting arrest was reduced to attempt to resist. No jail time and 18 months of supervision. I’m very thankful for his legal counsel and his ability to give me sense of security. Thank you Mr. Salon for everything you have done for me! I’m grateful that I chose Mr. Salon to represent me and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone.

Fabulous Attorney!

I am so grateful to have been referred to Dick Salon. His counsel and support gave me the confidence to walk through a difficult time with the faith that I would be taken care of, and I was. Dick responded within hours, if not minutes, to every text, call, and email. And he always made sure I underst...ood every potential legal direction my case could take, but also indicated which option was most probable. Walking into court, I felt relieved to have him on my team. As we went to stand in front of the judge, I stood by his side and watched him fight for me in a legal language I didn’t quite understand. I knew I had hired the right man, but it was at that point when I was truly awed by his prowess in the legal system. His services resulted in the best possible outcome for my case. I am overwhelmingly grateful for the experience of working with Dick and I would recommend him to anyone seeking counsel.

Richard went above and beyond to counsel me without judgement both legally and emotionally in this very embarrassing and difficult legal journey. I highly recommend Richard Salon to anyone in need of an honest, caring & very professional lawyer.

"I've known Dick Salon for decades personally. He is a caring and thoughtful person that brings a wealth of life experience to the table. Professionally, he was one of my mentors in the field of criminal defense early in my career As we worked together at Fagan, Salon & Associates, we interviewed witnesses, conducted research, and tried misdemeanor and felony cases, giving me an early opportunity to learn directly from a season and skilled trial attorney. Dick is highly respected, and it is my pleasure to endorse this lawyer."
