FIVE STAR RATING

I can't say enough about the professionalism and care that I received from Attorney Rob Harrer and the Chicago Consumer Law Center. I was being sued by a debt collection company called “Portfolio Recovery” and didn’t know what to do to get this situation resolved. The stress and anxiety were very ove...rwhelming and I was an emotional wreck. Knowledgeable and professional is how I would describe my consultation with Attorney Harrer, he was thoroughly versed in his field and understood my complex situation. The empathy on my individual case was so greatly appreciated. Attorney Harrer and his staff answered every call and email which made me feel they were personally invested in me. Not only was the debt removed off my credit report, but credit score increased significantly. Thank you Attorney Rob Harrer and Chicago Consumer Law Center, whom so Deserve a 5 Star Rating. I highly recommend them! Service Excellence for all involved. G Martin Chicago, IL

Hire this guy!

My husband and I hired Robb for help with a school loan lawsuit that we had no idea what to do or what steps to take. I received a very detailed packet in the mail from Chicago Consumer Law Center going into great detail in what lawsuit we were involved in, how they can help us, and their guarantee! ...After reading that packet I gave them a call and they were extremely helpful. We were booked that same week, since we were very worried that the date was fast approaching. After sitting down with Robb and explaining our problem, he once again explained everything in great detail, step by step and answered every question we had. And shortly a few months after we received the call that we had won the case. All we did was hire them, paid them, answered a few questions, and they won our case! Do I recommend this man as your future lawyer? yes! he will answer all 1,000 questions you have and help you the best way he can.

Chicago Consumer Law Center got $25,000 & $5,000 lawsuit dismissed.

A Collection Agency was suing me for $25,000 and $5,000. I was frightened by the letters. I was receiving phone calls and mail advertisements about a lawsuit I knew NOTHING about. I did not know where to turn. I saw a mail advertisement from Chicago Consumer Law Center, P.C. I called the phone numbe...r and Chicago Consumer Law Center met with quickly. Attorney Rob Harrer explained options to me and found out what was important to me and my family. The Chicago Consumer Law Center Team laid out a strategy. Attorney Rob Harrer got both lawsuits for $25,000 and $5,000 dismissed in my favor. Please do not ignore Collection Agency lawsuits or letters, take it to the Chicago Consumer Law Center Team and they will fight for you. Do not let Collection Agencies take money from you or your family.

Professional Lawyer you can Trust

I was being sued by LVNV for a loan they acquired from the lender or another collection agency and it was interrupting my day-to-day thinking for work and family. I just couldn't concentrate with this weight on my shoulders. At the time, I reached out to several law firms in Chicago but everyone made... me feel like it was just a transaction or they responded to my voicemail a couple days later but Rob Harrer took the time to understand my situation. He was able to put me at ease, educate me about the process, and explain to me all the scenarios based on the actions we took. Rob developed the trust where I was able to function during the day and sleep at nights because I knew I could trust him and his team to perform as expected, regardless of the results, because he was consistent, professional, and followed up when necessary. because he educated me about all scenarios, I was prepared for any results from the case. In the end, we WON, and I have already referred other clients to him because of his professionalism, experience, articulation, and team.

Delivered Phenomenal Results

I contacted within days of losing my right to reopen a case in which a judgement had been filed against me. Rob explained the process, the very reasonable fees, and then explained the range of possible outcomes. Within an hour or two, I received an engagement letter. Then, Rob got to work immediat...ely. The next time I heard from Rob and his team was to inform me that they had achieved the absolute best possible outcome that I had ever contemplated for my situation. I highly recommend this firm.

"I endorse this lawyer. I referred a client that was sued by a debt collector to Rob and Bryan at CCLC. They uncovered violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act and my client was able to sue the debt collector that originally sued him. I can strongly recommend CCLC to any of my clients with collection issues."
