Automobile Accident

In February 2016, while I was driving north bound on Highway 295 toward O'Hare, suddenly an entire wheel felled off an 18 wheeler truck hitting directly onto the windshield of my Fiat 500. After the accident, I tried numerous times to contact the truck's owner and driver without prevailed. Frustrat...ed, I went online searching for a reputable with good ratings attorney to represent me in recovery the damages of my car from the accident. I found Mr. Christopher Ackeret. Chris accepted my case and handled the entire process expertly and professionally. The case eventually become somewhat complicated since both the driver and the owner of the truck refused to accept theirs responsibility. It takes almost a year after the accident, Chris managed to win the case and finally recovered the entire cost of the damages. Chris is a skilled professional in the field he practices and is highly recommended.

Highly Recommended - Student Loans

Throughout my case, Chris was very professional, honest, knowledgeable and accessible. The case dragged out for longer than expected, but he stayed diligent in working toward a positive outcome versus National Collegiate. He was always available to offer guidance and did very well in explaining the l...egal jargon and aspects entailed in the case. Couldn't have asked for a better lawyer. He is genuine, honest, and will give you the truth and educate you on your possible options/outcomes. Result ended in dismissal of the case which was the best I could have asked for. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Recommend without reservation!!!

From the very first conversation I had with Chris, and all the way through helping to get my case dismissed, he made the whole process far less stressful. He made himself available to me at all times to answer my questions, and always offered sound advice. At a time of uncertainty, Chris was exactl...y what I needed, and expected from an attorney. I would recommend him to anyone without reservation!!!

Service and Results

On relatively short notice, Chris agreed to handle a credit card debt case that was scheduled to go to court. Not only did he get the case completely dismissed, meaning they can never contact us again, but through his efforts we never spent a single minute at the court house. We handled the entire ca...se start to finish through a handful of emails, a couple of faxes, and a personal phone call telling us the good news. Throughout the entire process he was totally available, and his suggested strategy was 100% spot on. I would highly recommend you contact Chris if you have a legal problem.

Highly recommend

Christopher Ackeret has been very professional, knowledgable and responsive. We've been extremely lucky that one of our friends recommended Cris to us. Cris handled our especially complicated short sale case with great skill. He's shown unbelievable effectiveness negotiating with multiple banks and a...lways kept us informed. Cris also helped us stay optimistic through out that entire process by maintaining open communication and showing his expertise, Thank you Cris.
