I've used them 2 times, both times I was extremely pleased with my outcome. Mr. Hirsch is very professional and informative of your situation and circumstances, as well as the potential outcomes. One time one of his associates represented me, and another he personally did. I would definitely call if I need a lawyer in the future.
Resolved a traffic issue in 30 minutes - very impressive!
I called Mr. Hirsch early in the morning, and he answered the phone immediately even though he was still at home with his family. This was a cold call; he did not know me at all, but he immediately started taking notes as I explained that I'd been named as a defendant in a traffic case in Kane county, without my knowledge, and had already missed the court date because I had received neither a ticket nor a summons. He took my payment information and then called me back in about thirty minutes: He'd been able to establish that my case had already been reviewed and I'd been cleared, and he charged me only a nominal fee. It was a huge relief to me, and I will call Mr. Hirsch and his colleagues again any time I have any kind of legal issue.

Best in the field
I consulted Mr. Hirsch regarding a landlord issue I had involving pest control and safety codes in my building. Once I presented my reckless landlord with the information Mr. Hirsch supplied, he folded like a cheap suit. If I ever need to retain an attorney for any reason, Mr. Hirsch is the ONLY one I will be calling. I would advise anyone reading this to do the same.

Great Attorney
One of the attorneys represented my son at court for a class B misdeameanor ticket. I as a parent was really nervous because I didn’t know what expect. I called Gordon and all my fears were put to bed. The attorney showed up and also took my son aside after court to talk to him about the seriousness of his ticket. I have to say that my son learned his lesson. The attorney was great and we would definitely recommend him. Thanks Gordon!

Traffic Ticket for Out of State Driver
Gordon and his team of attorneys are extremely professional and well versed in the laws governing the state of Illinois and specifically in my case, the City of Chicago. I received a speeding ticket on the Chicago Skyway and the ticket required me to appear in person and have legal representation. I recieved a letter in the mail from Gordon's firm offering to help. It was as simple as a phone call and a PayPal payment and I hired Gordon's firm, a lawyer met me at the courthouse and helped me to resolve it completely in just a matter of minutes. It was extremely easy and having someone from his team present gave me piece of mind that it was resolved in the proper way. Thank you!

Great respresentation
I received a nasty Class B misdemeanor speeding ticket and got a letter in the mail from Hirsch Law group offering their services. I was totally unfamiliar with the process and met Gordon at his downtown office for an initial face to face. He was punctual and professional and I retained his services. We communicated multiple times via email both with Mr. Hirsch and members of his team up to the court date. His representative arrived on time and got the fine reduced to a "Petty" with a small fine. Paying the fine however was horrific as all the systems went down by coincidence of course when I had to pay. Gordon again offered to have his team take care of the payment process for me so I didn't have to make another trip to this dreadful building.
Thanks Gordon, high recommend.

Yes we learned a lot along the case we had and he was there when I needed him and cared about the case Evan though it was crazy at times we made it work for a good outcome better then what it could have been if I did not have him as my lawyer representing me.

Great Experience
It's very rare for me to take the time to write a review, however, my experience working with Mr. Hirsch was fantastic. I originally contacted another attorney who supposedly specialized in expungement and was hesitant on taking on my request. I called Mr. Hirsch and he said he would take care of it without a problem. He gave me a longer timeline that I was hoping for, but everything was completed way before. It was a pleasure to work with him and I will use him again.

He is the best.. !!!!
Long story short , I have a CDL( Commercial Driver License) I was doing 90 mph in a 45 mph zone in my car not in a semi truck. The officer told me that doing 35 mph over the speed limit is a misdemeanor class b and that I could do some jail time. 1 week later I received a letter from Mr Hirsch he wanted to fix my problem. The bottom of the letter say " Just give me a call and I'll handle the rest" and actually that's what happened he took care of everything and was done with only 1 court. Also my record is clean, I went to secretary of state to get a driving record and guess what NOTHING appear in my record.. so if you're having the same problem don't doubt to give him a call.

Got it done
Mr Hirsch handled my case and was able to do what he said. I was out of state and he kept me from having to travel back to Chicago. He never gave false hope but delivered on the verdict I was hoping for. I strongly recommend Mr. Hirsch to anyone.

The service was great, he was very helpful and knowledgeable. I walked out of court with my license back the same day. I will definitely always keep him handy.

Professional Advice
I received a traffic violation and had to go to court. At the last minute I called Hirsch Law Group for advise and talked to Gordon Hirsch and he said with my violation that I would need an attorney for court. He said that he or one of his associates would be at the court hearing. One of his associates met me at the court house the next day. The attorney was very professional and knowledgeable and did a good job with my case.

The outcome I hoped for.
Hirsch Law represented me on a recent case in Lake County. My charges were dismissed. Mr. Hirsch and his staff were very professional, knowledgeable, and straightforward. They explained the steps and strategies we would employ clearly and concisely. I will use them again for future legal matters.

Just call him.
One morning last July I got home at 6 am coming from the police station after my 3rd DUI arrest. Minutes after I got off the cab I called Mr. Hirsch. On November 16 I was leaving the courthouse holding my driver's license, and more importantly with a CLEAN RECORD. Bottom line - just call him and explain what you need; chances are Mr. Hirsch wil have it done.

Sucessful Evading Police defense
A hired Mr. Hirsch to represent me for an speeding and evading police charge. He worked with me to gather the needed background information for the defense. He was able to move the initial hearing date since I had a prior commitment. On the day of the hearing, he met with me to review the details of the case, and updated me frequently as he worked with the prosecutor. The evading charge was dropped, and I paid the speeding ticket with a year of supervision. I should be able to avoid any criminal record as long as I am clean for the next year.

Excellent Result
When I had a problem, Mr. Hirsch was recommended to me. I interviewed him and one other attorney. Both seemed excellent, and I chose Mr. Hirsch. He understood my situation and worked hard on my case from start to finish. I listened to him carefully, did EXACTLY what he told me to do, and we achieved an excellent result. He's smart, skilled and professional. Enthusiastically recommended.

Dedicated and professional - a lifesaver!
I was once charged with multiple Felony counts of narcotics possession and sales, spread across numerous cases. I had no record and no priors - but it didn't matter. I was in a lot of trouble and was facing nearly 2 decades in prison. My life was over. The evidence against me was "air-tight", and there wasn't much I could do to defend my life and my future.
Mr. Hirsch came to my rescue and immediately began working on my cases. He fought and worked to find every possible way to bring me out of this disastrous and seemingly impossible situation. Somehow, he made miracles happen - almost all of the charges disappeared; I received an expunge-able supervision for a possession charge which has allowed me to avoid prison time and, most importantly, a permanent conviction on my record. I could not have prayed for a better result.
Aside from his courtroom prowess, he has a great personality and a hilarious sense of humor that can comfort you during your darkest moments. I highly recommend Gordon Hirsch.
