Van A. Schwab

I'm a resident of Buffalo Grove and work in Skokie. Mr. Schwab, I would like to sincerely thank you for all that you have done to assist me with my legal case** I prayed and asked for directions and God sent me your way. Every time I needed to speak with you--you were available (or returned my cal...l in a timely manner). When I sent you an email, you responded swiftly---I am certain this process would not have ended the way that it has if it was not for your professionalism, competence and thoroughness. I have never been through a storm such as this one but I am forever grateful that you were available to assist me during the turbulence. Your affectionate guidance, understanding, your interest in me and my son, your belief that I was worth being your client was everything that I needed. You taught me a lot about myself through this process and I am so eager to set sail and move forward with confidence, peace, optimism, and joy. You made an impression on me that softened the stress and encouraged me to take responsibilities for my choices. I don't anticipate needing your services again, but in the event that I do, and/or if I meet anybody that does, please know, you are my only choice!!!!! Warm Regards.

We needed a new lawyer to help us terminate child support since the child was turning 18 soon. We lived in Florida, but original case was in Illinois. Very beneficial that he is able to practice in both states. He answered all our questions and communicated with us every step of the way. Every scenar...io we thought of (of how it may turn out), he was able to provide a detailed plan of attack and realistic expectations. Very fair price and support was terminated with no issue. Would hire again!

Do not hire Mr. Schwab. Only out to make money for himself. He did not layout all the details in my divorce case as far as all the items I could be asking for in court. I had to look up laws regarding property division and consult with 2 different attorneys to kind out the about the things I could be... asking for in court, which Mr. Schwab said I can't ask for. He was only looknig for ways to bill me for more money. Mr. Schwab falsely accused me of making threats only because I had said I would like the Bar Association and the Better Business Bureau to look into the case. I reached out to and e-mailed opposing counsel to settle my own case which Mr. Schwab was over paid to do and did not.

Mr. Schwab delivers results on his promises. My case was complicated and I came to Mr. Schwab with a big hole (mostly of my own making) to dig out of. Mr. Schwab went to the mat for me on numerous occasions during the process and achieved an outcome that was better than I expected. In the process,... he also put me on a better path in managing my relationship with my ex that has helped me to this day. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a good lawyer in family law.

I was very pleased with the service I received from Attorney Van A. Schwab who took a difficult child support case where I owed more than $50,000.00 and he reduced my current support and set a monthly payment on the money I owe.No jail and no purge or contempt finding all within 14 days of retaining ...him. I recommend this attorney.
