David Lee

When David spent an hour on the phone with me on a holiday evening I knew we were in good hands. He explained the entire process of navigating the legal system in our particular case and reassured us of all potential outcomes. He was always responsive and answered questions thoroughly and clearly. I would recommend him with no hesitation at all.

From the start, David was an excellent communicator and I immediately knew he was passionate about his work. Whenever I had a question, he made time to talk and respond to my emails. He clearly explained my case and laid out what to expect. With his vast knowledge and experience not only as a defense attorney but also a prosecutor, David developed a plan to resolve the case. Once his plan was in action, he was very persistent in his communication with the State's attorneys office. I was extremely satisfied with David's work and the final resolution.

I write this with the hope that whoever reads it, and has need for an attorney, will find it compelling to the point that they contact Mr. Lee. My initial inquiry was based on the fact that he is a former Assistant State’s Attorney, believing that he would have an excellent command of the law. He absolutely does. And when Mr. Lee heard my story, the challenges my situation presented, he asked what I felt were thoughtful questions, and gave candid feedback that made me feel he truly understood and wanted to represent me because he believed he could make a difference, not just a buck. Mr. Lee’s professionalism is characterized by how well he listens, the insights he shares into “how things work”, and the respect he shows when emotional and financial drivers may impact how you view the legal process. On several occasions we disagreed, and Mr. Lee not only listened but expressed sympathy in his response, even though his experience and knowledge of the law was sometimes being challenged. I’m very grateful for that. You truly want someone like him in your corner. The way I look at the representation I have had from Mr. Lee is this: you have a choice to make, a choice that may determine financial, parenting, or other issues. The best thing you can do is align yourself with someone who has the experience, integrity, professional demeanor and relationships that will represent you best. I’ve seen how other attorneys respond to him, and he to them, and believe that his reputation has been built on how he has represented individuals like myself. It is with my deep appreciation of how he has worked on my behalf that I recommend Mr. David Lee.

I hired David for a very complex case. He didn't judge me, he showed empathy, and made every part of the process extremely easy to understand. He listens to your story; concerns, offers not just realistic, but, also logical advice, and doesn't try to persuade you into something that you aren't comfortable with or don;t completely understand. Not only did David provide exceptional legal counsel, he also provided me with extensive knowledge and prepared me every step of the way. David is very intelligent and is on your side, he puts forth a lot of extra effort & I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance. David is not only a lawyer, but also a kind hearted person that doesn't implant unrealistic ideas in your head. He will fight for you and be honest, clear, direct, & concise. David is truly an exceptional attorney!

n late December of 2017, a loved one was arrested in Aurora Ill. Having been a Police Officer and Homicide Detective for the past 28 years in Michigan, I know the importance of having a spotless record for future employment and career advancement. I found David Lee and my search for an attorney ended. having worked with attorneys my whole career and having interacted with competent and incompetent attorneys, i knew immediately that David had the experience, knowledge, understanding and down to earth sensitivity needed to handle the case. Six weeks later the case was resolved and the outcome could not have been any better. Take my advice and hire the attorney a Police Officer would hire for his loved one. David is absolutely the best.

I hired David on as my attorney for a custody case that should have never gone as far as it did. I was served with papers and 6 weeks later, it was on trial. The other attorney put a rush on it, trying to complete the case before I could hire an attorney. I found David online and he seemed to have good reviews. After meeting with 3 attorneys, I hired him. His first day on was pretrial. He couldn’t believe things were as rushed as they were. 2 months later, the trial ended with the opposing counsel being directed out- a task not easily accomplished and a verdict that is rarely given. David was always straight forward and honest, which I appreciated. I never felt like steam was being blown up my “you know where” like many attorneys. He was also great about allowing a payment plan and staying in contact. All around a good experience.

Absolute great experience working with David. Very prompt, confident and knowledgeable over his field. Very responsive to all calls, emails and texts sent, and resolved my case within a week of court date. Very easy to work with and professional. Highly recommend!

A week before our wedding my fiancé was pulled over and arrested for a few unpaid parking tickets. Our wedding was out of town and we had 250 people coming. I hired David Lee. He was prompt, professional, reassuring, he answered everyone of my frantic calls and questions. I am eternally grateful to David, he was able to get my fiancé out of jail time and we paid a couple of fines. A huge sigh of relief.

We consulted David to assist with a family member who was having some legal issues. After getting overwhelmed with the issues facing us, we contacted David Lee for a consultation and we did not regret the decision in hiring him. He provided extremely valuable advice and offered solutions that we had no idea existed. Long story short, David resolved our situation in a professional manner. He is very personable and easy to talk to. We will not hesitate to recommend him and his services.

David is a fantastic lawyer. I would refer David in a heartbeat. He is straight forward and tells you the way it is. His knowledge of family is outstanding. My case was nasty right from the get go and stayed that way to the bitter end. The end result is, we won our case and I Thank God for bringing David Lee into my life. All I can say is, if you don't hire David to represent you, God Help You!!!

I hired David In response to a DUI that I had received leading into the summer months. It is important to mention I am also a CDL holder. Attorney Lee is a very honest and approachable person, he is there to help you but will lay things out for you realistically so you know what to expect. He helped me through the court process and even traveled 2 hours out of his way to represent me in a different county. He clarified the consequences and kept me aware of timetables so that I would have the least stress possible and be able to put this mistake behind me. He is a dedicated attorney and someone to be counted on down the road for anyone in need of clarification or defense.

David recently helped defend a family member. From day one David explained exactly what we were looking at and our best course of action. When he said he would do something, he did it in a timely fashion. When I left voicemails for him he returned my calls same day after hours. We got the best possible outcome regarding our case because of David. No hidden agendas. All cards in the table with honesty and compassion. A benefit to using David is he's a former prosecutor. He knows the judges and current prosecutors very well. This can help during plea bargaining. David cares about his clients on a personal level. Many times he voiced his concerns about the future of my family member who was in some trouble. His focus is not just on the case, but the long term affect it will have on his client. We trusted David while heartedly. Thank you David for your efforts and expertise.

Working with Dave was an absolutely amazing experience. He went above and beyond and exceeded all of my expectations. Nobody wants to go through legal issues and the processes that go along with them, but he was able to help me navigate the system and reach an outcome much greater than I expected. I work odd hours and he was always available whether it be late at night or early in the morning. 100% satisfied.

I was pulled over last month by the Illinois State Police.They caught me going 35 over the speed limit on I88 in my personal vehicle. I have a class A CDL and my license is my livelihood. I Contacted David and after our consultation I felt assured and confident that he would be able to help me. I was very happy with the outcome. David was able to get my violation reduced and was able to get me Court Supervision.

David Lee was referred to me by a friend and fellow attorney. We spoke several times leading up to my court date and David was always professional, courteous and very well versed in the law. He listened and confidently explained the entire process and kept me informed every step of the way. He was always accessible and always left me feeling like I was in good hands. Everything went as he had described. I extremely satisfied with the results of my case but more importantly I couldn't be happier with the level of service David provided. I would recommend David without hesitation.
