Kendall D. Hartsfield

Attorney Kendall Hartsfield is one of the most valuable and trustworthy sources I have met in my life. During the moments of my case not only did Mr. Hartsfield help me through the process of getting it handled he went the extra mile to give me insight of the situation on a grander scale. His consist...ency and empathy for my family and I gave us a reassurance that couldn’t be shaken. I trusted his insights, advice, references, and even the outcome to be favorable based on his great service. From the first moment I had met with Attorney Hartsfield, my emotions and mindset were in a unstable and difficult place. Even then, his intuition and work ethic transferred into my mind. Kendall Hartsfield is more than just a great lawyer, but also a someone I could trust to help this situation and move past it. All of the documents and requirements needed Kendall had worked with my family and most importantly my future. I would recommend and reference him to any person who needs a top tier individual and with the right heart as well. Kendall was the angel on my shoulder reassuring me of his job and how we are moving forward and making progress. He made my case resolved In the best case scenario while and very timely. If you are looking for an attorney, or even a call, Kendall is the best Lawyer and the most efficient worker in a time of chaos and stress, Kendall was the peace in the middle the calm after the storm... He showed me that one bad day doesn’t dictate who you are.. and one of his greatest sayings he told me was “Even this too shall pass”

Kendall is an exceptional attorney in every respect. He is experienced, well known and respected by judges and prosecutors in the Chicago area court systems, and he gets results. What surprised me most about Kendall is his genuine compassion for his clients. We appeared before the judge 8-10 times ...and Kendall overcame the prosecutor's dogged position that my son was a threat to society and based on his record, unfit to be part of the drug program. The prosecutor saw my son as just another bad guy and wanted him locked up in the penitentiary. Kendall presented our case expertly before the judge and was able to move our case from criminal court into drug court. During the process, I was thinking how an attorney would eventually get fatigued by the ridiculous drug use and be happy to wrap up the case and move on to other clients. But Kendall is different. He stayed thoroughly engaged in getting the best outcome for my son. He would talk to him as an attorney but also talk in human terms. Kendall was able to connect with my son and help him think clear enough to make a good decision rather than take the easy path. The net result is Kendall created the time my son needed to make some good but difficult life decisions. It's been about a year since we worked with Kendall and during this time, my son has stopped using drugs and he has dived deep into certain mental health issues that were the root of the drug abuse. My son is working hard and committed to living a productive, meaningful and enjoyable life. He is doing a great job and I am so proud of him. But none of this would have been possible without Kendall. His combination of superior legal skills and genuine compassion for his clients convinced the judge to give my son one last chance to turn around his life and remove the charges from his record in the court-monitored drug program.

Kendall's immediate understanding of the law surrounding the case was extremely helpful, especially in the beginning when we were trying to wrap our minds around everything that was happening. He painted all of the potential scenarios so that we knew what to expect throughout the proceedings. His c...alm demeanor was a benefit to all parties involved. In the end, he helped secure the best possible verdict and I am very thankful for his help! I hope to never need him again, but glad to know he's there... just in case!!

Attorney Hartsfield was recommended to me by my cousin who is a real estate attorney. They went to school together. Honestly, it was the best recommendation I could have gotten. My case is of a class A misdemeanor, one that could have prevented me from moving out of the state, getting engaged to ...my future wife, and prevented me from starting my business. Attorney Hartsfield always quickly responded to my phone calls or texts (within 24 hours), was very knowledgable and able to educate me on what were our options for action and potential outcomes. He was honest and trustworthy. He was always on time and I truly felt that even though he had many other cases he was currently dealing with, my case was important to him. I would wait in the court room and see other cases be called in front of the judge and majority of attorneys were late. Not Attorney Hartsfield, he was always there prior to the doors opening for court. In addition, his rates were quite reasonable. With out Attorney Hartsfield, I would not have been able to start my life. I owe him a piece of my happiness. Thank you again! And I would recommend him for any of your misdemeanor cases. KG
