I live in Miami, FL, but I hired Ryan Powers to handle an unusual, complicated and highly personal family law issue in Pekin, IL ... based partly on reviews from this site but also on the way he conducted our initial consultation and after comparing his interpersonal skills (and rates) to three other... attorneys I interviewed on the phone, all of whom I met through Avvo. Ryan guided me to a successful conclusion of my case, with the results I wanted from the start and much faster than I had hoped. He was clear about the legalities of my unusual case, and he communicated regularly and was available quickly every time I needed him, providing answers to direct legal matters and sage advice when I needed that as well. He told me when to stand my ground and when/how to negotiate through a tricky agreement. As my representative in Pekin, I also appreciate how Ryan conducted himself with the other person in my case. Family law can involve sensitive, personal issues, and Ryan handled my case professionally and delicately. I have never met Ryan in person, as we conducted my case via email and phone (rather unusual and cause for initial concern on my behalf). However, by their actions and regular and clear communications, Ryan and his office staff gave me enormous confidence that I was being represented in the best possible way long distance. In Powers Law, I had a strong attorney and caring people looking out for my best interests from thousands of miles away. I cannot recommend Ryan Powers more highly, and I would hire him again without hesitation.

I retained Ryan to take on the state of Illinois as they had denied my Conceal Carry License for no sustainable reason. It was hard to find an Attorney experienced in this field as the law was new and pretty much unchallenged. I called and my wife and I met with Ryan to discuss the ifs ands or buts o...f my chances of winning. after we had sat there for a few minutes talking about this I noticed Ryan was taking on a very very interested demeanor and there I realized that Ryan was the one to fight for me. Ryan tackled the case with a drive that I have not seen in many Lawyers, Ryan kept me informed at every step of the process,we had a couple of down times but he never gave up and he beat the state of Illinois at their own game and we won. I have passed Ryans info around to anyone and everyone I know in regards to CCL licenses and for being just a GREAT YOUNG MAN. And Ryan will be my first choice if I ever need another attorney.Thanks again Ryan
