Lawrence Stephen Starkopf

I cannot speak highly enough of Family Law Solutions and Lawrence Starkopf. Larry demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism and dedication. He navigated the complexities of my lengthy divorce case with precision and perseverance ensuring I received a fair settlement. The attention to det...ail and commitment to my best interests were evident at every step. Not only did Larry showcase his impressive knowledge of the law but he also exhibited empathy and understanding, providing the support I needed during such a difficult time. I truly felt his genuine care and commitment to seeking justice on my behalf. I highly recommend Larry to anyone in need of legal representation for divorce or family law matters. He is an outstanding professional with a rare combination of legal prowess and compassionate client care. Thank you, Larry for your exceptional service and unwavering support.

I stumbled across this page and thought I would add my recommendation. I used Larry some years ago in a very difficult and contentious divorce case. He was amazing and turned things around within months. IF IT WERE NOT FOR LARRY, I WOULD NOT HAVE RAISED MY OWN CHILDREN, as my ex-husband, an attorn...ey, was determined to devastate me legally and financially. He was filing motions against me almost weekly. He almost succeeded in his campaign, but then I hired Larry and he was able to turn things around. You will not find a divorce lawyer, or any lawyer, in Cook County or Lake County with better courtroom skills. Larry also is a very savvy negotiator and a very decent and kind person with a strong conscience. He has worked for and with the best divorce firms in Illinois. He knows everyone. He won't cheat you.

When I met Larry Starkopf I thought he was nice...too nice to handle my ex-husbands aggressive attorney. To my great benefit and surprise he not only rose to the challenge he surpassed it! Larry Starkopf is a true trial attorney who was knowledgeable, assertive and spot on in his objections of every ...trick opposing counsel pulled. I dealt with three other attorneys prior to retaining Larry and while he was not the least expensive he was worth every cent! How often can someone say that about their attorney? By the time I landed in Larry's office I was very distrustful of attorneys and skeptical of his approach to my matter. If there is any advice I could pass on to a future client of his it would be to TRUST your attorney. It took me awhile to relax and let Larry drive the matter but once I let go of my fears I was able to relax, assured of his best efforts representing my interest. I was never passed off to an associate attorney and was constantly abreast of every ounce of activity. He had a stellar assistant, Deborah, whose familiarity with my matter was matched by Larry's. As a team they were very involved and well versed in my matter, despite maintaining a full calendar and case load. Larry informed me that he could make no promises on the outcome of my matter but promised that in the end (no matter the outcome) I would KNOW that he fought for me. He kept his promise and because of his efforts I not only received sole custody I was also awarded more support than what was initially suggested. I watched Larry raise more than a reasonable doubt that my ex-spouse was hiding assets. This was a big bonus considering we were not informed of opposing counsel's plans to reduce support. Without prior knowledge and only holding evidence for a few minutes, Larry used the documents submitted against my ex. This quick thinking ultimately won a favorable financial verdict for me and the children. He is a smart attorney who fights for his clients...I'm glad my ex didn't get to him first!
