Mr. Beaumont is a Great Lawyer, he has represented my Family a Few times. He is very Trustworthy and always told me the truth. I highly recommend him. My Friend also used him for her daughters case and she was very Satisfied with him.

Your Legal Partner

Having worked with Atty Beaumont in his representing a family member, I found him to be professional and dependable. He kept us well informed of the progress of the case and therefore we were never blind-sided by any situation. He was responsive to the client request's, who felt he did a good job r...epresenting. I was impressed that he did not confine himself to what was comfortable for him but would go beyond what he may not have been accustomed to or familiar with in order to make sure he provided the best legal service he could. If you want to have a lawyer that will partner with you, I recommend Atty Beaumont.

Larry the Lump

Could I rate this lawyer below "poor" without using profanity? I was in law enforcement 31 years. I retired from the Chicago Police Department as a commanding officer and Mr. Beaumont is absolutely, and positively, the worst criminal defense attorney I have encountered in all those years. He is r...epresenting a loved one of mine, and I am afraid he has done more to have her imprisoned than the prosecutor. He has failed to interview ANY witnesses, and there are many, or take any depositions, or issue ANY subpoenas. He has done nothing, and I mean nothing. He advised her to give a statement to government officials without presence of counsel. What kind of criminal offense attorney does that? He is totally unresponsive. He has totally ignored daily requests for counsel from his client, and her friends and family members, by phone, email, fax and text, for months on end. MONTHS, not days or weeks! He charged an exorbitant fee, and after he got paid, hung her out there to dry and vanished like a thief in the night.

REVIEW

This guy is the absolute WORST! This sorry excuse for an attorney is currently representing a family member. However, to say he is actually representing her is an overstatement to say the least. We have nicknamed him Larry the Lump! He has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to assist her. He doesn't meet ...with her, he does not return her calls or calls made on her behalf, he does not file requested motions and then lies and says he has done so, he allowed her to meet with court officials without him being present, he doesn't file required information with the court, he misplaces important documents and doesn't read others, he has not interviewed any witnesses to mitigate the charges against my loved-one and the list goes on. This guy has shown no leadership, knowledge, direction, professional pride or commitment in his handling of this case. He has NOT been an advocate for his client and as a result, she is facing an aggravated sentence.

A Trustworty Attorney

Mr Beaumont is currently handling a criminal case for my grandson, and he is doing an excellant job. He is very open and honest on every detail he gives to myself and my family. Mr Beaumont is very respectful, and i would compare him to Perry Mason or Ben Matlock, for those of you who watch tv, with... the exception that he is not a character on tv, he is as real as real can get. In my opinion, and everyone is entitled to their own. He is one of the best lawyers you could hire, and i would refer anyone who is in trouble and in need of an honest attorney, to him. Again i say, i am well pleased with his services, and you couldn't meet a kinder man.
