Current Client

Dean has been our real estate attorney for over 7 years. He is quick to respond and thorough in the services rendered. We feel confident that our best interests are protected when we place a matter in his hands. His cheerful, outgoing and caring demeanor make him a real pleasure to work with.

President

I have used Mr. Papdakis' legal services for over 7 years. He has handled over fifty different cases or matters for me and my firm. His understanding and appreciation of how legal issues impact business decisions makes him invaluable in contract negotiations or business transactions. He knows what ...his clients objectives are, and figures out the best way to help achieve the desired result.

Current Client

We have worked with Dean Papadakis and KPG for many years. Dean is always very fast to respond and when he does it is with confidence and case law supporting his reasons. His experience and manner in dealing with difficult situations is a huge asset - he can turn an ugly situation into a win win. We ...have won many cases using Dean and his team and I would highly recommend him.

Dean came highly recommended to our company as the person to talk to in Chicago regarding commercial real estate and; specifically, environmentally impacted property. He was knowledgable, thorough and did a great job for us. I enthusiastically recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
