Happy with representation.

I hired Mr. Schwab to represent me in court regarding child support/ spousal maintenance/ marital property issues. My case was complicated and lengthy. However, I was advised by Mr. Schwab on each step and turn it may take, on how to act in particular situation, which happened the way he had predicte...d. Due to this outcome he has earned my full trust. I am very happy with the fact that he was my attorney and with the end results. I could not have wished for a better lawyer! Highly recommended!

Review

He is knowledgeable and knows his stuff very well. I would recommend him to anyone. He helped my sister case. It took her more than expected, but it was not his fault.

Posted by Rick | January 17, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Wills & Living Wills

Knowledgeable, personal, and efficient.

I was referred to Mr. Schwab for an update of my will and medical directives. He was very prompt and knew his stuff well. I would recommend him for anyone. A good, ethical man who keeps your interest front of mind at all times.

Easy, to the point, great communication

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!
