Trucking Accident

I recommend Richard Sklare very highly for anyone involved in a auto accident or any other service provided for by his office. Richard Sklare secured me a wonderfully positive outcome after a trucking accident in January. Richard Slares' legal staff was completely professional compassionate, under...standing, informative and very helpful during my recovery for my injury. Richard Slares' medical associates were all very very ,professional, very compassionate and attentive to my pain needs. His medical associates had offices that were extremely well equipt and the atmosphere freindly , relaxed , and progressive. I am very grateful to Richard Slare. I will surely recommend him to all my freinds and anyone who may be seeking legal personal injury representation . SINCERELY, E.G.A.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2011.

Further suspension stayed issued in IL, 2011

updated on 09/09/2016

Further suspension stayed means the attorney has been suspended, but that the suspension is placed on hold (and ultimately removed) if the attorney complies with certain requirements. Typically the requirements are included in a probation term the lawyer has been given at the same time.

Richard’s comment:

“Those who make mistakes are judged not by that mistake,but by how they learn and grow from them.”

Suspension issued in IL, 2010

updated on 09/09/2016

Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a specific period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Richard’s comment:

“Life is not without challenges and defeat . We are judged not by our failures,rather we are judged by how we grow and rise from them.”
