Worst lawyer in Kankakee County

This is the worst lawyer in kankakee county!! Never returned phone calls or text. Came to court case unprepared. Lied constantly. My charges were just minor now they were upgraded to felonies. He did absolutely nothing. All he was worried about was money then more money. Now I had to hire another att...orney and start all over after being in court for 3 years with this case. See what drugs do to you.

Never available

My husband and I hired Robert for our child support case against his ex. He was never available and seemed to have no interest in helping us or answering our concerns and questions. His assistant was always making excuses for why he couldn’t answer our emails, phone calls, etc. every single time we a...sked for an update we were told he was unavailable, the right person wasn’t in the office to answer our questions, or told he would return our phone calls and we wouldn’t hear from him for days, if ever. We scheduled several appointments with Robert only to wait in his office a minimum of an hour every single time, and on Top of that on more than one occasion he stood us up and blamed it on court AFTER we waited in the office for over an hour! He agreed to let my husband and I pay him so much a month until we got our tax returns back, which we had in writing(although we found out later he never actually signed even though the document was presented by his office) so he started contacting us telling us he wasn’t going to continue our case until he was paid IN FULL! My husband and I had not been receiving child support for his 2 kids in over 8 months, he knew we were financially unable to pay in full bc of the situation with our kids, yet he still went back on his word to let us pay even though we had never missed a payment. He is now causing our case to start over at square 1 with our court case, which we can not afford, because he wants to go back on his word and not allow us to fulfill our payment plan. We feel as though we have COMPLETELY wasted our hard earned money only To be billed for months of unanswered phone calls, emails, etc . This was a TERRIBLE experience only to end up empty handed and having to start over at square one currently Finding another lawyer

Unless you want to give it all away, STAY AWAY!!

I hired this so called attorney to represent win my divorce. He has no business doing divorce cases or for that matter any case. He's absolutely horrible. My well-being wasn't in his best interest. Making my ex-wife rich was!! He didn't fight for anything I asked, he just telling me. "Oh you can make... for money'. Well guess what, he gave her that too! This guy is a horrible attorney. Stay away!!!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I highly recommend this attorney. I've worked against him as opposing counsel on two separate family law matters. Mr. Regas is an attorney who truly respects that the clients can cause problems amongst themselves just fine, it is the attorneys' job to alleviate that conflict to resolve the case. While he zealously fought for his clients, he maintained the utmost respect for me as opposing counsel. It was a pleasure working with him."
