THE LAWYER EVERYONE NEEDS

I am absolutely thrilled that I made the decision to hire Mr Voelker to handle my case. In addition to being very easy to talk to, he is straightforward and has a no nonsense approach. He asked me my thoughts and what I wanted to do, he truly represented ME in every way. I will no doubt use Dan in... the future for all of my legal needs and I highly recommend him.

Outstanding Attorney

I have known Dan Voelker for approximately 18 years. My experience with him is that he is an excellent attorney who has demonstrated how to get to the heart of a matter, create a plan for the case and understand the issues on both sides to prevail for his client. Exceptional attorney in the courtro...om.

Great lawyer

Dan Voelker represented me in a personal injury lawsuit about five years. His legal expertise helped me to successfully win the judgment in my favor. To this day I could call upon him for his expertise legal advice In many matters. He is on the top of his game above the vast majority of lawyers in ...today’s overcrowded legal arena.

One of my life lines

Help save my future against my ex-husband who decided to stop paying me and went up against not only him but the Chicago Police Department to help me get my share of a court-ordered pension while I live in another state he went to court and got the restraining order so that my ex could not run and hi...de with all the pension and leave me with nothing like I had been living for almost 2 years I so highly recommend this lawyer he did this for me almost without very little money down and is accepting very little money for monthly payments from me I highly recommend this attorney to anyone thank you Daniel

Dan Voelker - One of the good ones

I needed legal advice on an issue and Dan listened to my situation and advised me against taking the matter to court, due to cost and high risk of an unsatisfactory outcome. He helped me save money while explaining legalities to me. He cares. I would not hesitate to hire him in a legal matter. He... knows his trade and he cares about doing what is right.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Dan Voelker is incredible on his feet. He is the best at jumping into a case late in the game and cutting his opponents to pieces at trial. Unlike most trial lawyers with exceptional natural talent, Dan is kind, humble, and thoughtful. He is a very rare combination of a good guy and an absolute bulldog."

  • 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.
