He Promise only that he can Deliver

I'm deeply grateful for Attorney Hal Garfinkel's unwavering dedication and 35+ years of expertise. His confidence and strategic approach, which he calls his 'Algorithm,' combined with his deep understanding of the legal system has left no stone unturned to meticulous examination of my case. From the... beginning, Hal was confident about my case winning outcome. He promised only what he could deliver, Which aligns with the saying 'Trust your lawyer when you're confident about your truth.' This experience so far has reinforced my faith in the legal system. Throughout the process, Hal was more than just an attorney; he was a fierce advocate who consistently went the extra mile for justice. He is highly respected amongst his peers. It's worth noting that Hal is in high demand for a reason, but his approach requires patience. His actions often speak louder than words, and he may surprise you with his commitment to your case when you need it most. He shows up when required.I am optimistic about working with him in future. Thanks to Hal's efforts, If you're seeking a champion for your case, Hal Garfinkel is an attorney worth considering.

Excellent Service

Attorney Hal is very experienced and knowledgeable . He guided me throughout my case past one year. The case got dismissed and I got successfully my visa stamped at the end. He is accessible all the time and responds to the questions very quickly. I would suggest this attorney to hire for your case.

Should be disbarred

Hal Garfinkel is only concerned with 2 things- himself, and your money. I hired him a year ago for my case and fired him within a few weeks. He is leasing office space in a beautiful building, but has a small windowless office the size of a closet. He does not know the law and these reviews are al...l staged. Do not waste your time with this guy as you will be very disappointed in all aspects- his appearance, attitude, knowledge and ethics.

Replied last October 24, 2017

Dear Mr. K: From the moment I was hired as your criminal defense counsel, the two things I was most concerned with was your pending criminal case and your serious mental health issue as evidenced by your unstable and chaotic behavior which I witnessed on several occassions in the Will County courthouse and at my office during our client meetings. Your inability to control your rage and anger undoubtedly contributed to your legal problems and I sincerely hope that you seek the mental health treatment you so badly need. It is true that I lease a windowless office in a beautiful downtown office building and to be sure, I intentionally chose this space because I did not want to overcharge my clients to cover the excessive costs associated with an unduly large and glamorous office. To my past, present, and future clients, please rest assured that the client reviews posted below are authentic, accurate, and trustworthy as Avvo's prime service to the public is to verify that a client review is real and not phony or spam. Moreover, to anyone taking the time to read this response, I am devoted to the civil rights of my clients and I will do everything within my power to defend and protect your freedom and constitutional rights. Respectfully submitted, Hal M. Garfinkel, Esq.

Iraqi Veteran Seeks

Great man with a professional demeanor and understanding of the Law. Im an Iraqi Veteran that was accused of a Sex Crime by a fellow student at a top Chicago University 2 years ago. Without knowledge of the Law I believed that I could handle things on my own and let the truth substantiate my version ...of events. Needless to say I was naive and irresponsible in my actions. After meeting with Mr. Garfinkel, He assured me that he would work hard to bring my case to a close. He was patient and willing to fit me in for a consultation, especially with his condensed schedule. Within a month, Mr. Garfinkel was able to put an end to my open case. Please don't wait to schedule an appointment! I did and It almost cost me everything that I have worked for in my career. Placing my case in Mr. Garfinkel's hands granted me the freedom to finally be able to move on with my life and put this terrible situation behind me.

Excellent Service

Hal is wonderful to work with. He took the time (extra time) to explain all legal jargon, details of my case, as well as my options. Hal was easily reachable and respond promptly to all my questions, concerns, and needs. Not only was he friendly but very experienced and knowledgeable. In the end he d...id EXTREMELY well by me. He saved me TONS of money, and negotiated the best possible outcome that I could hope for. I would definitely seek his servicies again, but hopefully will not find the need. It was comforting to know I had such quality representation working on behalf.
