Dedicated personal advocacy!

I cannot express what a relief it was to have Mr. Lee as my representative in court. A few months ago, i received a traffic ticket and was required to be in court at a date when knew i was traveling for work, so i filed (what i thought) was a request to have the court date moved to a later da...te. The Circuit Court Clerk explained that i would receive confirmation of the new date in a few weeks time. how surprised was i when, after being pulled over on a seat belt violation a few weeks later, i was arrested and charged with driving on a suspended license? I hired Mr. Lee, and he immediately began his work, finding where the mistakes had been made (on my part, and the county's) and used his diligence and professional relationships to assure that charges were dropped and my license was reinstated. At all times Mr. Lee kept me informed of his communications with the opposing counsel, the progress being made, and guided me through what would have been a hazy, expensive, and time consuming process had i tried to do it on my own. His polite, easy manner eased the stress of a frustrating situation, and his hard work and dedication made a short job of the red tape. I can recommend Mr. Lee, and will do so to anyone who is in need of legal assistance. Thanks, Phil!

When life throws lemons at you, let Phillip Lee throw them back.

During the first phone conversation I had with Phil I knew right away that I could trust him. For me this was incredibly important because it was his honesty that won me over and safely allowed me to accept him as my representative partner. I use the word "partner" because Phil created an environment... where we worked together, toward a common goal, and I knew I could count on him. Phil of course led the way, and I always felt like we made progress together. It was such a nice change from a previous experience in another, somewhat similar situation. What facilitated this the best was the way he communicated. I always knew what was happening, and I always had a voice and a choice. I highly recommend Phil Lee as a attorney. He demonstrated true professionalism by promptly working on my case, caring about my situation, and communicating with me on a regular basis. Through his hard work the case was resolved in my favor. If I ever get into a similar situation again, without hesitation, I know exactly who to call.

Took a huge weight off my shoulders, outstanding lawyer!

I hired Phil to straighten out some issues I was having with the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and the Secretary of State - two of Illinois' more vile and disagreeable governmental bodies as far as I was able to tell. My own efforts in negotiating with them got me nowhere and actually ...made everything worse. Phil took care of everything across the board. He kept me informed of my case and was very proactive in keeping me on track to get through these difficult situations. I feel very relieved that it is all over and I can finally get on with my life. I also want to mention that I randomly ran into him at a bar in downtown Joliet. Phil is one of the most interesting and hilarious people I have ever met. A great lawyer and a very cool guy who "gets it" - very relatable, personable, and real. I highly recommend Phil to anyone!

Our go-to guy, couldn't ask for better!

Phil is our general counsel here at Hubbard Inn. He represents us in a variety of matters, whether they be administratively related or as it pertains otherwise to our business. We couldn't ask for a better attorney and more aggressive advocate. An all-around professional, efficient, straight-shooter.... The attorney aside, Phil is as real and genuine as it gets. If you are able to grab a beer with him and talk life, do so - you will be incredibly glad you did.
