Miseamndo Dropped No Charges

Mr. McCall and his team are an excellent and very professional law firm. I got arrested for obstructing an officer and I didn't know what to do. Luckily, working with McCall Law Firm was the right decision. I had him represent me for my first misdemeanor and the results were awesome. There was no tr...ial, no charges, and no conviction. He is a very friendly and cool guy he knows how to get the best outcomes when representing you. I highly recommend Mr. McCall if you want to have the strongest possible defense in the Peoria area.

Trustworthy, fair, and caring attorney

After meeting Chris during our consult, we felt confident in hiring him. It was clear that he is a great listener and cares very deeply about helping others. He represented my child and helped us obtain a strong Order of Protection for her. Chris delivered on everything single thing he said he wou...ld do....we got every parameter we asked for in my child's Order. It took several court hearings and Chris or Robert was always there and prepared!! I also wanted to add that Robert is every bit as amazing to work with as Chris. If you choose to work with the McCall Office, you have chosen wisely.

  • 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.
