Attorney for DUI cases

Henry Kass is an excellent criminal lawyer and I was lucky enough to be introduced to him by another attorney that I know. I had the unfortunate experience of receiving a DUI and Henry Kass helped me through the entire process. Henry was knowledgeable, compassionate, non-judgemental and very suppor...tive. He was extremely helpful walking me through the entire process of all of the classes and evaluations I needed to complete for my case. He went the extra mile of finding resource for me and making sure I clearly understood all of the charges and choices I had before any decisions were made. Henry prepared me thoroughly for every court appearance and was always prompt to my court dates. Henry and his staff were always available for any questions or guidance I needed at anytime. Henry was able to minimize my charges and make sure my future was not adversly affected by this unfortunate mess I got myself into. He was able to reduce my fines and recind my liscense suspension. Henry's fees were very fair. Henry made this extremely difficult time in my life much easier. I have and continue to recommend his services to those in need of a criminal lawyer.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Henry is known for his thorough preparation and courtroom skills. Most recently, he served as a Guardian ad litem in one of my custody cases. He did a great job with a difficult case. Ultimately, the parties accepted Henry's recommendations and settled, thus avoiding the huge expense of going to trial. Henry and I also served together on the DuPage County Bar Association's Judiciary Committee, which investigates, interviews, and rates judicial candidates. Henry always did his homework and gave thoughtful comments. Again, he showed the seriousness he brings to every task."
