Jeff Muntz completely turned my case around - he is the reason my baby boy has equal and frequent access to both me and his mom. As a single father navigating a contentious divorce and fighting for parenting time and overnights, the odds seemed against me. When my previous attorney wasn't able to ...get a favourable outcome, I contacted Goostree Law Group and retained Jeff in January 2021. Swift and to the point, he isn't afraid to take on an aggressive opposing attorney. Shortly after he took my case, my parenting time was expanded to overnights. Throughout the case, Jeff was extremely knowledgeable and professional. The way he bills time is very fair and convenient whenever I needed to have a short phone call with him. He gives clear updates after every court appearance. Most importantly, Jeff's experience as a GAL and understanding of the legal system proved invaluable. He was able to bring the opposing party to the table and negotiated a settlement favourable for everyone, resulting in 50/50 parenting time before our boy turned one. If you're a father reading this now, then you know that's not an easy feat in Illinois. I should add, he makes for a pretty good therapist, though I don't recommend it from a financial standpoint LOL - it's better and cheaper to keep your inner noise to a minimum and go for a jog instead. No doubt divorces can be expensive. Jeff's hourly rate is higher than some other attorneys, but that's for a good reason. In hindsight, I would've spent a LOT less money overall if I had hired Jeff Muntz from the start. For those in the middle of it, hang in there - it does get easier. My case ended in September 2021, and things have been pretty great since. Maybe you're lucky and you're going through an easy case, or perhaps your case is more like mine, and you feel like there's no way forward. Either way, get Jeff!

I have been working with Jeff on and off since 2013. He was assigned to my Divorce case and helped work out an fair settlement, always looking out for my best interests, as well as, listening to me for fairness to the other party. I then had to bring him in to a Severance case to help ensure I was be...ing treated fairly with "sharing". Lastly, and hopefully for the Final time, I had to request his services to help settle child support upon completion of my maintenance at the same time of loss of work. He is an excellent resource, he has good relationships with the courts, and he is always sensitive to my needs. I have recommended him and the firm to friends who are looking in to hiring a lawyer for divorce. I have no problem retaining him again if I would need.

Jeff handled my divorce and I was very happy with the outcome. He was very knowledgeable about the divorce laws and my rights. I had many questions and requests throughout the process and he took the time to address each and every one of them. His approach was to the point yet kind when we were deali...ng with more sensitive parts of the process. I was very happy with Jeff and Goostree Law Firm in handling my divorce.
