Helpful and Direct

I consulted with Allen on updating legal information on our business. He was incredibly helpful and direct with the steps that needed to be taken. I would consider Allen a subject matter expert in his field with confidence in his decision making. He followed up on our process to make sure it was goin...g well. Additionally, his office in Schaumburg served as a great meeting location.

So grateful for Allen Gabe

When I was facing my divorce, I was afraid and dreaded the entire process. I am so grateful I had Allen by my side. He was extremely professional and responsive, and truly made me feel that I had an advocate and protector throughout the entire process. His advice was invaluable. And, he was exce...llent at keeping all parties accountable and on pace. He was also very kind and compassionate - always knowing when to mix in just enough humor to alleviate a stressful moment. Thank you Allen for navigating me through a very difficult situation to a very positive outcome. I would recommend Allen to all of my friends and family for any legal need that may arise.

Long Divorce but good results!

When signing up I retained a different lawyer. She left the firm and Mr. Gabe took my case. What a pleasure it was to work with him. He was active and always responded to my emails or phone calls. (Even if it was to voice how upset I was that day). Mr. Gabe was also so professional and funny when... needed. My divorce took almost 2 years but in the end, Mr. Gabe was on the look out of me every step of the way.

My Attorney

All professionals are the same. SO what makes professionals different. It's what you want. I want service. Period When I have a legal issue, I don't want to wait. I want service now. Gabe has been my (our) for many moons, so I cannot not site one example because Gabe has never failed me.

Counsel for divorce and registering my company as an LLC

Allen Gabe and his staff were always friendly and responsive to my questions and needs. I always felt that my best interests were being served. All fees, etc. for services rendered were also clearly explained in advance. In terms of my divorce, Allen did an excellent job of making certain that he und...erstood my situation and desires in terms of finalizing my divorce. He provided great support step-by-step through the process. When it came to turning my company into an LLC he made sure I was working with one of his team who had the most experience in completing this process. She was thoroughly knowlegeable and completed the process efficiently. If I needed legal representation Allen and his team in the future, they would be the first people I would call.

Family lawyer | Nov 28

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have been fortunate enough to work with Allen not just through the law but as a fellow member of the Northwest Suburban Bar Association and it is here, and in his other endeavors, where his personality as a lawyer shines through. Allen is the rare lawyer that genuinely cares about his community and this same commitment to his community is reflected in his attitude toward his clients. Put simply, Allen cares about his clients, their lives, and how the legal systems is going to impact their lives. This caring drives Allen to obtain favorable outcomes for his clients no matter in what area of the law he may be assisting them. It also separates Allen from the vast majority of lawyers and makes him worthy of any clients' trust."
