Liam is the best

hired Liam to represent me I was facing a class X felony (3) class 1s and (2) class 2 felony’s , from the moment my home was raided until my last Court date I was set on doing some time in prison but from the beginning Liam and Jerri assured me that was not the case that they would do their best to k...eep me out of prison no promises but they would fight for me , I was caught red handed so I assumed the worst Liam used his resources and relationships with the state and prosecutors to have most of all my charges dropped and I got to avoid prison taking a probation deal which is the greatest Win that could have happened in my situation I got to stay working and continue to be in my kids and family’s lives which was the most important part Thank you Liam and Jerri , this last year was a roller coaster but I thank you guys so much for all you have done for me. I knew from the moment I caught my case that I was going to hire him with out a doubt Liam is the best representation you can have he has decades working with Kane County judges and state attorneys he’s represented most of the biggest and highest profile cases always delivering the best out comes when it comes to your freedom he’s going to fight for you do not put a price on your freedom hire Liam and let him fight for you! Jerri was there and answered on every call text or any issue that came my way always steered me and my family in the right direction although they are not therapist they did bring a lot of ease to my life I am truly grateful to have had the best representation thank you team.

Liam is amazing

Liam is genuinely one of the most exceptional lawyers I’ve ever encountered. While I prefer not to share the details of my case, I can confidently say that Liam gave me a strong sense of reassurance from the very beginning—and he absolutely delivered. He was proactive, communicative, and strategic in... working with the prosecutor. Thanks to his efforts, my outcome was the best possible: the minimum sentence with only community service. I’m incredibly grateful.

2nd Dui

Dixon said he was going to beat the case in trial. Sure enough he did! Only got charged for failure to yield.

Legal representation that stands with you.

After being highly recommend to Liam Dixon, by a very close and dear friend of mine. I contacted Mr Dixon’s Aurora Illinois office to schedule an appointment. In doing so I spoke with Jerri. A very professional, and a take charge type of woman, who is also Mr Dixon’s paralegal. Jerri immediat...ely offered me several dates & times to try to accommodate my schedule. We quickly came to a date & time. On the date of my appointment, Mr Dixon already in his office was eager to meet with me. He stated he had previously reviewed my case and than proceeded to explain his approach to my issue. In agreement with Mr Dixon’s strategy, I immediately requested him to represent my case. He agreed, and proceeded to ask me a few various questions. In short Mr Dixon was able to have my case dismissed. Opinions may vary, everyone has one. In my opinion if you need legal representation, Liam Dixon is a lawyer who is straight forward to the point and says what needs to be said, when it needs to be said and delivers exactly what he says.

Exceptional service

Liam Dixon is an exceptional lawyer. I would highly recommend him. We took it to trial and got a NOT GUILTY verdict via bench trial. The states attorney dragged it out for almost 2 years, and every question and concern I had him or his office cleared the airway and gave me confidence. He is very tria...l ready and knowledgeable about trial. He knew when to object and have the states attorney's comments overruled. There aren't enough words that can describe his final argument so the judge can hear and see the passion he had for my case. I am highly satisfied with his work hours he put into the fight for my freedom. Thank you Mr. Dixon and god bless
