Anthony Abear

I have worked with few attorneys before as most of us did. This time I had a pretty difficult issue with my Sons custody, I really couldn't afford to take any chances as my decisions would impact my sons life and health. I will never forget the first appointment with Tony. The sense of dignity and in...tegrity coupled with simple kindness was the first notable impression. This impression never changed throughout the entire case. The case wasn't simple and I am a father,, dads still have a much more difficult time in the system then moms. One of the first items he mentioned was that he will only work with a client that is honest to him about Everything that is going on and will not accept anything less. My tips to any future clients of Tony: Always tell the truth, always prepare all that you are asked for and beyond (this is team work), work efficiently with the office, trust his advice,,, fully. I believe someone else here used a term "Quiet warrior" that is so accurate. Before hiring Tony I was anxious about the case, there were many factors that made it difficult. As my case progressed, my anxiety was replaced with calm confidence in how all the aspects were being handled. While Tony is quite busy, he took a very personal approach to my case, knowing all the right facts and always having a clear strategy and plan of action. When Tony is in court or simply walking through the halls, its hard to miss his presence. He seemed to have earned a tremendous amount of respect from other attorneys and judges which is quite evident. They seem to know that when he makes a statement it is simply true without any doubt. The rest of the team in the office is also outstanding. I was pleased to always receive email copies or calls about updates in the case in very timely manner. Sally in the office was superb. She helped to handle my calls, appointments and all other aspects of the case perfectly. Of course I am a happy client, my Son is safe, the case was resolved in his favor. I am proud to have been able to help him. My anxieties come back a bit at times when I think of what would have happened if Tony wasn't there to represent us.

Ever had an attorney that you could call at night, or on weekends, or even better, would come to your house or work to meet with you? Well over the years I have hired literally a dozen attorneys through work, and out of all those attorneys, none have ever done any of that. But Tony Abear is the bril...liant exception. He consistently went out of his way to make sure I knew everything that was going on with my cases (a few over a few years), made himself available night and day, and was always prepared to the point that he was one step ahead of the opposing counsel! I used Tony for my divorce and custody, my sons ticket, and have referred 4 other cases to him. In each instance Tony has done amazing work!!! I would tell anyone looking for legal services to make Tony Abear's office their first, last, and only stop!

Tony represented me for a very complex family law matter involving the welfare and custody of my child. I had worked with other lawyers before Tony and was full of despair when I first came to Tony. After the initial meeting, Tony turned my despair into hope and soon after that, turned that hope ...into a miracle. He and his staff, Michael and Sally, handled my case as if I were family. They were beyond compassionate, never gave up, and provided support for me every step of the way. In fact, for one of my hearings, the entire team came just to provide emotional and physical support for me. Tony then worked relentlessly to get results for me that no lawyer before him could ever get. He truly cares and is an advocate for children. He sought justice and never gave up until he got results. I'm confident that there's no other lawyer in Dupage County, or the State of Illinois for that matter, who can match his skill and service level. He is everything that anyone would ever want in a lawyer and beyond. He treats you like family, is honest, hard-working, reliable, competently knows the law, and is financially reasonable. And on top of all that, he always keeps as smile on his face, no matter how complex or stressful the situation, which really helped to relieve my worries through the process. He and his team are truly miracle workers and the absolute best ever in the legal system, hands down!!!

I worked with Tony Abear as my lawyer for almost three years. He is professional, compassionate and will be by your side every step of the way. I had a long complicated court case where Tony got me full custody of my children and put in place some court orders that will help my children have a bett...er life. He truly cares about his clients and the children involved in his cases. He will fight for you and your family. He kept me focused and hopeful during very difficult times. He is an amazing human being and excellent attorney. I would highly recommend him and his services.

Anthony did very well by my side! I greatly appreciate what he did for my daughter and myself. He protected my daughter when needed and he went above and beyond to make sure that she was safe. He got me eveything I wanted included sole custody. I highly recommend that if anybody needs help with any ...family matters, that they must contact anthony.
