A FANTASTIC attorney

I can't begin to state enough positive things about Mike. My divorce was extremely contentious. My ex-wife lost her custodial parenting rights. She was not even awarded court supervised visits with my children. My ex went through three attorneys, while Mike continued to be a stabilizing influence..., advocate and voice of reason through the most difficult time in my life. Mike immediately responded to calls, messages and even texts. He was very open, honest and did not present false, or unlikely outcomes. Quite honestly, Mike is very much a person who over delivers. We had a terrible Guardian ad litem assigned to my divorce. The GAL was absolutely determined to have the kids remain with their mother, even though she was the perpetrator of unspeakable child abuse. Mike managed this issue in a wonderful manner, assured the kids were well protected and that I was well represented. Mike's rates are fair. There is absolutely no over billing. I highly recommend Mike! Also, the staff at Chapski Law was always kind and very responsive. All very good people to work with!

Highly Recommend - Reliable!

I hired Mr. Chapski in April of 2012 for my divorce. He was extremely knowledgeable and caring of my feelings during an emotional time. He was considerate of my budget and wasted no time. He fought for everything I deserved and then some and, in the end, prevailed. He did not drag out the process... either. What makes Michael Chapski an exceptional attorney is that he was there for me even AFTER my divorce as well. Things with my ex post divorce got really ugly and at one point dangerous. I called Mr. Chapski for an urgent matter involving the safety of my child and he did not hesitate to speak to me immediately and after hearing my situation he jumped into action and was able to get us in front of a judge quickly and with his expertise and knowledge, my child is safe. I have had to turn to Mr. Chapski repeatedly over the past 6 years pertaining to post decree issues and Mr. Chapski has never failed me. Always prompt to return calls and emails and willing to give wonderful advice. I have recommended several friends and coworkers and they too speak highly of his abilities and professionalism. I know that if I ever need Mr. Chapski's advice or services I can call or email him, and he will respond with no hesitation. You cannot go wrong with Mr. Chapski!!! He and his firm are HIGHLY respected within the Kane County Judicial system as I have heard straight from judges themselves how they respect the Chapski firm.

Gets thing done

I worked with Michael about 8 years ago. He did an outstanding job. He has no problem standing his ground to make sure the case is fair. I moved and ran into a situation and I need some information and Michael was responsive asap. I could not use Michael, but he gave me great advice and directed me t...o another attorney.

Highly Recommend Michael Chapski

Michael Chapski represented me over the last 18 months in dealing with the aftermath of a long separation and challenging divorce. From the time Michael accepted my case, I knew I was in capable hands. I was referred to Michael through another respected attorney in town because of his knowledge, t...rack record of success, compassion and respect in the legal community. From the beginning, Michael was my voice in the courtroom. He worked closely with me on strategy so we could avoid trial and negotiate a fair settlement. He was extremely attentive and provided email responses and court updates within 24 hours. On the final day of prove up, I was proud to walk into that courtroom with Michael by my side. He absolutely commands the respect of the court with his professionalism and legal knowledge. Through his compassion, professionalism and just pure kindness, Michael made this journey for me bearable. I will forever be grateful to Michael and his firm.

Divorce / Rehabilitative Maintenence Review of Mike Chapski

As a client, I experienced working directly with Mike Chapski and his staff for an initial divorce agreement and then a maintenance review case. In addition to understanding the emotional stress accompanying such an event, Mike's communication and follow-up (via phone calls and emails) to keep me ...up-to-date was superb. He provided me with realistic expectations prior to the initial settlement agreement and again later at a review hearing. Mike demonstrated complete understanding of my personal case facts and extensive timeline of events during a cross examination court hearing event which led to the vital facts of my case coming out and our position being supported by the Judge. During the hearing, Mike's professionalism and the mutual respect to and from the Judge was obvious, compared to my ex's counsel who wanted to argue with the Judge. Regarding the final arguments from counsel, Mike diligently followed the Judge's requests and provided a clear, well-written, and case-law supported final document. I strongly recommend Michael Chapski's services for anyone seeking advice with Divorce and Separation.
