Douglas Drenk

Douglas Drenk is by far the most incompetent and abrasive person I have ever met. He refuses to provide clarification for clients and goes on rants about how they don't understand law and suggested the client "take some paralegal classes at college of dupage" rather than explaining as an attorney sho...uld. He is very big on both micro and macroaggressions and is an absolute cheat; trying to charge clients for the hours that they personally spent getting their paperwork together when he refused to do so. My friend almost went to prison in contempt of court, not because he did not provide the info, but because Doug never filed the information. When allowed a continuance he failed to show to court and is now refusing to send the legal file to the new lawyer claiming "there is no file" regardless of showing to court with the client multiple times and working with him for nearly 2 years. You'll save $ in the long run going to a lawyer who will get things done vs this man who will string you along for years accomplishing virtually nothing.

We hired Doug Drenk based on a recommendation from a friend. They couldn't have been more wrong. He's unprofessional, rude, doesn't pay attention to detail, among many other issues. I should've known from the first meeting when he showed up in a tank top and jeans that this was going to set the stand...ard, but we trusted our friend. After multiple times of not listening to our concerns or issues, and going against what we wanted in court, we finally called him out for it and he quit on us. Thousands lost, not to mention the case. And this would've been an easy case to win given the circumstances. Any green attorney would've had thier first case won with ease. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere, like I wish we did.

This guy is a liar and completely incompetent. Warning: do not use this guy he is a cheat and no good. He doesn’t ever show up, he’s always late and makes the most ridiculous excuses. He is not respected by his peers and not one judge thinks highly of him. He also takes personal calls all the time wh...en in conference with his clients and never gives his undivided attention as he should. This guy should not have a law license! Horrible attorney who never wins a case!!

This guy is a charlatan, cheat, and con artist!!!! Don’t give him a dollar!! If you believe Anything he says, it’s your own fault when he takes your money, fails to file in court, and loses your case. RUN AWAY from this cheat and don’t look back. He’s AAWFUL and should be disbarred if there’s any jus...tice in this world.

I Agree 100% "One of the worst if not THE Worst!!!" he is not respected by ANY sitting Judges or practicing attorneys he is shady with money If you use this attorney, you will lose your case and be very sorry ! This is TRUE 100% "He asks you to write checks to cash and to other people!! Screwed me... for over for $1800 went to court and lost and this guy never even filed his appearance with the court but charged me for it! another case he just took the money contacted the other atty who he was friends with and never pursued the case
