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!

Knowledgeable and Supportive

I divorced at the end of 2018 and Michael was nothing short of amazing throughout the whole process. Overall the proceedings were amicable but there were times when emotions began to stall moving forward. Micheal remained steady and calm throughout and guided me toward the best decisions for myself a...nd for my children. He was also great at managing my expectations on the likely outcome of our case. Ultimately we divorced before the end of the year, six months after I had filed. Since then, I have reached out a few times for questions on the execution of the dissolution of marriage. He is always so quick to respond and he is still very invested in making sure I understand his responses to each question. He is a genuine and caring person and it shows in the way he carries himself and in how he represents his clients. I would highly recommend him for anyone seeking advice or to hire a family/divorce attorney.

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.

Attentive & Capable

Michael was hired to assist in a divorce case involving children. He was attentive and showed true interest in what was important to me from our first meeting all of the way through the process. He and his staff were easy to reach and either got to me before I even had a question, or were quick to ...reply when I did reach out to them. Just as important, he knew what he was doing and I felt I was in capable hands during a very rough time for my family. I highly recommend Michael for anyone needing legal assistance in these areas.

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.
