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

Great Attorney

Mr. Harrer provided me very good advice on how to protect my assets. He is very professional and quite knowledgeable, and mostly importantly, he really tries to help client with best cause of action, unlike some lawyers who just try to make more money. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Harrer t...o friends or family members.

Excellent service on a personal level

The Chicago Consumer Law Center is a fantastic firm that handled and won my first case against a debt collection agency called Cavalry. Out of nowhere, a lawsuit was delivered to my house via police officer and I immediately felt very overwhelmed. In the next few days, a few letters from differen...t firms reached out to offer their services for my case but one letter in particular stood out, a ten page packet from Rob Harrer from the CCLC. It was one of the most detailed and personal explanations on why Rob wanted to represent me, coming from a similar background himself. I didn't go any further with other firm letters and called Rob right away to schedule a meeting. The next week I met Rob and he greeted me to such a compassionate and professional manner. He went through my entire case and explained how there was a high chance of the case going towards my favor due to errors and discrepancies made by Cavalry and how the case legally operates. Rob made me feel very comfortable and relaxed again about the situation. I knew I had found the right firm and in the following months, Rob and his team emailed me updates when new events occurred. If I ever had a question, he responded by the next day and I never felt left in the dark. When we won the case, Rob called me and enthusiastically announced our success. I was very happy to win this case and through Rob's professional guidance, I was happy to have done so through his firm. I highly recommend the Chicago Consumer Law Center and would go back to have Rob Harrer if the opportunity arose.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"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."
