Simply Great

This man saved me, he did everything he said he would. I was facing serious accusations and Mr.Nathe was able to help get most of them dismissed completely and was amazing. Worth every penny and did an outstanding job!

Excellent Traffic Court Attorney

Someone I know got pulled over and received a citation for driving uninsured and failing to obey a stop sign. In the state of Illinois the penalty for driving without insurance can result in having your license suspended and up to a $2,000 fine for time time offenders. They ended up walking out o...f the court room with a small fine and keeping their drivers license. Philip's rates are very reasonable. When hiring a traffic attorney, you're decision should not strictly be focused on the cost of the attorney. You have to evaluate their rate based on the potential worst case scenario for your court case. When evaluating an attorney based on the outcome, Phil is worthy every penny. If anyone I know told me that they have an upcoming a traffic case at the Wheaton Court house, I would highly recommend Philip Nathe.

Philip Nathe , Just the Best

I've used Philip Nathe over the years for different situations, and he always came through with flying colors. What else would you expect from a Western Illinois University Alumni. Thanks Phil, you ROCK...

Expungement

Mr. Nathe was retained to pursue an expungement of of a local LEO non-arrest incident report. While it took several months (I was apprised of such timeline upfront) to achieve the expungement, Mr Nathe successfully obtained an expungement order and subsequent compliance by both the local and state po...lice departments. He provided periodic status letters and appropriate documentation as the process moved forward. I could not have been more satisfied with his services. In addition, this is the third time I have retained Phillip Nathe and each time have received the most professional, courteous service and successful outcome. I will engage Mr. Nathe again should the need arise and highly recommend his services.

What a great person

Phil was with us all the way for 4years and was so kind and heartfelt in our time of need. He always see's the best in people. He is resourceful, knowledgeable, well liked in the Du page court systems and always had different ways to approach a situation. Seems to be on top of it all. Knows the ...system like the back of his hand. Even the courts seen to have a high regard of respect for Phil...I know we do. I wouldn't have anyone else ever handle our affairs but Phil Nathe.
