Straightforward yet Compassionate

In the summer of 2017, my 19 year old son was arrested for possessing a loaded firearm. I was inconsolable. Rush showed empathy but was straightforward with possible outcomes. With Chicago tightening up on gun laws, my son was facing a minimum of 1 year behind bars. Rush provided us with next steps: ...obtain character reference letters and grades from school. Prior to that, I had no knowledge on what to do. Rush was able to get my son's charge from a class 4 felony to a misdemeanor. I believe his experience, relationship with state's attorney's office, and those character reference letters/grades all played a part of the judge allowing the misdemeanor.

Excellent attorney!!! I will only use Hershel as my attorney from here out! Did a great job!

I met Hershel Rush at the Markham Il courthouse. I was in a desperate situation when I approached him looking for an attorney. After talking with him he was professional, reassuring, confident, and a pleasure. I knew immediately after hiring him I had made the right decision. Even after a mistake (10...0% my fault) he rectified the situation like a complete gentlemen he is. I would recommend and use Mr. Rush every single time. He did a great job and found a client for life! Thanks again
