EXCELLENT ATTORNEY AND TEAM!

Mr. Komie and his associates went into overdrive for me. From the beginning, Mr. Komie and associates stood out with their knowledge and expertise and ultimately managed to reduce what I was dealing with to basically a slap on the wrist. I really appreciate their hard work and determination to get ex...cellent results. They calmed my nerves and helped me stay on route to become the best version of myself. The team truly understands and cares about fighting for you. You can understand the respect that they deserve and have earned over the years. You can be sure that you’ll get the best council. I can’t express how thankful and appreciative of them I am. Great Attorney and great people. I’m glad I hired them!

My Baby taken by DCFS

In January of 2021 I was blessed with the birth of my first daughter Millie. Within 30 days Millie suffered an ischemic brain bleed. We rushed her to Edward/Elmhurst Hospital. They were unable to provide an explanation of the cause of our daughter's unexplained bleed. Edward immediately summoned DCFS... who threatened to take away our child. Edward Hospital unable to care for our daughter, transferred her to Lutheran General. At Lutheran General DCFS went into overdrive to seize our child. We were accused of child abuse, "shaken baby." My parents suggested I get a lawyer. Then I found Mr. Stephan Komie. In our first meeting he discussed ischemic brain bleeds vs. blunt trauma and related injuries to infants. He explained the legal procedures, but most importantly gave me the courage to go against the doctors at Lutheran General. We demanded our baby be transferred to Lurie Children's Hospital to seek the true cause of her brain leaking blood into her skull. Five months later DCFS tried to take custody of our baby and remove our baby from our lives to a foster home. Mr. Komie convinced the authorities the case was an ischemic bleed of the brain and not caused by foul play. Mr. Komie's immediate intervention on our behalf led to the return of our precious child Millie. Please, if you or someone you know finds yourself in the unfortunate situation of being wrongfully accused of child abuse, call Mr. Komie as soon as possible. Mr. Komie's expertise in law as well as his passion for his work are the reasons why Millie is home with my husband and I today. Thank you will never accurately express our gratitude for what Mr. Komie did for our family. God answered our prayers in our darkest hours by leading us to Mr. Komie. Millie is home now, thanks to Mr. Komie.

Saved from 30 years

Busted by the Il. State Police on I 55 outside of Springfield with more than 100 pounds of weed. My family found Stephen Komie and his defense team. I was facing a mandatory minimum of 12 to 60 years in prison. I was out on bond in 8 days. The State offered me 30 years. Mr Komie counseled my to reje...ct it because he could do better. Mr. Komie and his team of outstanding lawyers developed my defense to the unconstitutional stop of my car over 3 1/2 years. I never lost faith that he would fight for me although I became unemployed due to Covid 19. Boy did he get me a soft landing. He reduced 100 pounds to 500 grams. I plead to 2 years Second Chance probation with a deferred judgement with out a felony conviction or prison. He sent home to California and my family. I recommend Mr. Komie for anyone who screws up & faces legal troubles. All the other lawyers told me to plead and do time. Not him. He was the the only one who keep me going until he worked a great miracle. He reduced 100 pounds to 500 grams with no felony conviction and a deferred judgement. Mr. komie is simply the best lawyer for big legal trouble.

Criminal Defense Case

Long story short. I needed representation twice. Once in 2015 which he got me off with no jail time . The year 2017 I thought my life was over when I caught the worst case anyone could imagine. Even though I had lost hope and if founded guilty I was facing mandatory jail time. Both Mr. Komie and Mr. ...Anderson were very optimistic and let time wait itself out, filed the right motions. And a miracle was granted and used the judicial system to our advantage. my family and myself are very truly thankful for the strong effort they put into my case. As a result I was acquitted of all charges, in my opinion I would say Mr. Komie and his associates are one of the top lawyers in Illinois . It was a blessing to have him represent me and help me through my situation. It give me a second chance in life.

DEA swiped my cash.

Long story short. DEA @ Union Station took 59k in cash from me around the end of January 2019 I called around for attorneys and after talking to Mr. Komie felt like he was the most genuine out of the bunch. After some research I also noticed he had experience in this specific field of seizures. ...Another plus was that he took my case on contingency. Less than a year later, December 2019, Mr. Komie had received my money back and I got a check in the mail for my share. I am very grateful for Mr. Komie’s expertise and his amicable staff. Thank you! You are truly appreciated. May you all have a Merry Solstice & a Happy New Year
