Ross is amazing!

Ross is an amazing lawyer. I had a personal injury case that started last year that seemed like it was going nowhere until he took over the case. The moment he took over the case it felt completely different. He handled things in an expert and timely manner. He was very straightforward and explained ...things in a way where someone who isn't savvy to the world of Law would understand. We mainly communicated through email as that was my preferred method but we also talked on the phone. I am very pleased with Ross and what he was able to do for me and my case. I highly recommend Ross to anyone who is looking for a very professional Lawyer that can handle the case with the utmost care and attention.

Car Accident Case

Ross is an outstanding lawyer. I was in a car accident in July 2015 and felt so lost on what to do. Ross is professional and made sure I understood everything that was going on with my case. Because of Ross' professionalism, I felt confident that my settlement would be fair. He would sent regular e...mail updates and answered my emails promptly. His straightforward approach in telling me exactly what was going on in my case was refreshing. I would recommend that anyone use his services.

Representation Lacked Urgency and Follow-Through in a Complex Divorce Case

I retained this lawyer from an Illinois firm for a complex Illinois divorce involving significant marital assets, financial irregularities, and safety concerns. My experience with the representation was deeply disappointing, and I believe it is important to share my perspective so others can make inf...ormed decisions. During my time as a client, several issues significantly affected the outcome of my case: Delays in critical filings: Key discovery deadlines passed without action, and my discovery materials were not sent to the opposing party for approximately three months. Lack of timely financial investigation: Despite early documentation of substantial financial discrepancies and missing records, subpoenas and motions that could have protected marital assets were not pursued with urgency. Long periods without communication: I experienced extended gaps—sometimes weeks—without updates, even during pivotal stages of the case. Missed court event: A pre-trial conference was missed, which further contributed to delays. Insufficient use of documentation I provided: I supplied detailed financial analyses and evidence of irregularities, but these materials were not incorporated into motions or court strategy in a way that meaningfully advanced my position. Pushback against inaccurate claims: Opposing counsel made several repeated false income claims, inflating my salary over the years to position her client into a favorable position to receive maintenance. These claims were not refuted with factual evidence provided, but rather allowed to remain and set the narrative with the court. Transition issues: When my attorney left the firm, there was no advance notice, and the handoff of my case was incomplete. My new counsel later noted missing components of my file. As a result of these cumulative issues, my case progressed without the financial clarity or asset protection that were available had timely legal steps been taken. The final settlement was shaped by incomplete discovery and the absence of key financial information, and it has had lasting and devestating consequences for my family and personal financial stability and long-term security. I am sharing this review not to assign motives or make personal attacks, but to describe the service I received and the impact it had on my life. I encourage anyone considering representation in a complex or high-conflict divorce to ask detailed questions about discovery strategy, communication practices, asset-protection procedures, and transition planning within the firm.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Oct 22

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. I know of no other lawyer who is as compassionate and helpful to his clients as Ross. I have seen him go the extra mile and take the extra step on behalf so many of his clients. As Husband and a father of two teenagers I have seen that his entire being is focused on his children and family. Indeed he treats his clients as though they are his family. He cares about the life of each and every client he represents not only the specific legal problem is trying to resolve. Recently it was high praise indeed when the other side in the divorce case recommended Ross rather than his own lawyer to a new client that retained Ross."

Sample of Legal Cases

Underinsured Driver

I was able to recover a significantly greater amount of money for a client that just walked into my office looking for a second opinion, after her first attorney was happy just to make a quick buck.

Slip & Fall

I won a sizable settlement after proving the ice was due to the negligence of the homeowner, and was not a natural accumulation.
