Chicago Best Attorney

I had a child custody case 2 years ago that was the hardest thing in life I ever had to experience and go through. I Goggled lawyers and found Mr. David Sternfield. I called and asked if I could in the same day. I came in the office and Mr. Sternfield and I talked about what was going on. ...Mr. Sternfield is very patient, though, experienced and straight to the point. He was very helpful in giving me advice, coming up with a plan and explaining next steps. I felt very confident that Mr. Sternfield and his very professional team was handling my case and working hard to get me the BEST results .I did get the BEST results in my case in the end . I highly recommend Mr. Sternfield AND HIS VERY PROFESSIONAL team to anyone that wants legal help that is genuine, professional, committed, work for the client and caring about your case type of legal service. Mr. Sternfield and his Team definitely the best legal counsel in Chicago.

Helpful, Kind, and Responsive

I have been expanding my small business and needed assistance with understanding and creating various legal documents. David was very helpful in this process. He did not overcomplicate the job, was very responsive to my needs, and got the job done quickly and thoroughly. I would work with David ag...ain in a minute!

Has my best interests as priority

David was and has been on my side since the day I met him over the phone when I called to ask questions about my child support case. His advise always has my interests at the forefront. He is honest and takes into consideration costs for his time, and knew I didn't have an endless budget to spend o...n my case, so never took advantage in terms of billing. He is an excellent communicator in court as well as with the opposing party/council and was available to chat if I needed even if he was home with his family for the evening. What I needed most help with was being strong and protecting myself, despite fears of retaliation from the opposing party. David helped me realize my best interests and would give me 'tough love' and would encourage me to do what I needed to do, even if it wasn't always easy or pretty, as it related to my anxieties. I would absolutely recommend David.
