also known as Lonergan Law Group, Ltd.
My name is John P. Lonergan. I am a former prosecutor who has been practicing law since 1992. I devote my practice to the handling of criminal and family law matters. Licensed in Missouri, Texas, and Illinois, I have extensive experience in protecting the rights of the accused. I recognize that people require aggressive representation. I also recognize that many attorneys fail to stay in regular communication with their clients. It is my goal, in each and every case I handle, to ensure that your rights are fully protected and that you are always up to date as to the status of your case.
I will promptly return your phone calls, quickly respond to emails, and will make myself available to answer your questions. I regularly provide clients with my cell phone number so I may be reached directly.

It was apparent immediately that John was more concerned and invested in my case than any other lawyer I spoke with. My situation did not leave myself with a ...
"John is always professional and competent. I have worked with John on a few matters as well as had an opportunity to observe him in various other matters. He always zealously represents his clients while maintaining a good working relationship with the prosecutors."
"I have known John Lonergan for 12 years. Not only is he an outstanding criminal defense attorney, he is a great family law attorney as well. I know that anyone who chooses John as their attorney is in excellent hands. I would recommend John to anyone for their criminal defense or family law needs."
"I worked as an Assistant State's Attorney for years, working on the other side of cases against John. I was always impressed how he was able to work with a prosecutor without ruffling feathers. He was able to speak with a prosecutor about the case, focusing on the case, the issues the case presented, and each particular defendant. It is a pleasure to endorse John Lonergan."
"I have known John Lonergan for more than 15 years. He provides great legal representation for a moderate price."
"I have known John for over nine years. I emphatically recommend his services and would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family in need of representation in criminal and family law matters. Not only does he possess more than sound legal abilities, but what really sets John apart is how much he cares about his clients and wanting to achieve a good outcome for them. I have personally witnessed him going above and beyond for clients, often without them realizing."
