Outstanding Legal Firm

I met Robert Dreger over 30 years ago and he has been my attorney since then. He has guided me through awful situations whether I created them or were created to hurt me and he always came out on top. He is honest, fair, thorough, detail oriented, and extremely knowledgeable of the law. I would no...t have the success that I have had in my life if it had not been for him and his firm. You can trust him with anything and I have trusted him for the better part of my life. He is amazing!

Thorough Legal Service

I hired Rob Dreger to represent me. He did a thorough job of preparing me, reviewing the documentation related to the case, and executing the work in a timely manner. I would definitely hire him again for any business-related legal needs.

Best attorney ever!

Rob has been my business and personal attorney for over 5 years, and has done a great job handling all of my issues. I definitely get my money's worth.

Honest, fair and very effective

You can always trust you will get sound legal advice and great council for your problems. Money well spent. And I am not always a big fan of lawyers. This man is different.

Superb

I have hired Robert for several projects and his attention to detail has always been magnificent. He gets the job done properly and does not resort to grandiose claims. His pricing is fair and he does not charge for thinking about the job when for 40 seconds during halftime of a Bears game. He has... handled family/estate projects, collection projects, torte law issues in federal court, and regulatory complaints for my family and business.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
