Mcstephen Olusegun Adewale Solomon

Having to be a manager for cook County clerk of the circuit court I am well aware of Attorneys in this field. I chose him because he is the most knowledgeable and attentive to my concerns. His level of respect and support given to me during this process is amazing. Not one time did he allow me to fee...l hopeless or ignorant for asking questions. I will suggest Atty Max to ANYONE because he is the BEST. His spirit of joy and his aggressive defense in the court is unmatched. I’m most confident in him because he KNOWS his craft.

Attorney Solomon provided legal guidance that ensured a favorable outcome in the courtroom. I am running for an elected office and my petitions were contested. Max assured me that everything would work out and that he would take my case to the Supreme Court if necessary. Well, it wasn't necessary ...because Attorney Solomon was able to argue my case in the Appellate Court and we came out victorious. His knowledge of election law really helped to secure this victory. I would recommend Max to anyone that's new or unfamiliar with running for an elected office. His expertise is worth your time and money. Thanks for being a man of your word!

I retained Mr. Solomon for legal representation, he offered to do my case for a flat fee and assured a very favorable outcome. After nine months of continuances, talking to opposing counsel, and lot of false promises he attempted to get me to pay the equivalent of the same flat rate fee I initially p...rovided in full again or he wouldn't finish my case at all. His communication with his client was poor, made decisions in the case without consulting me, didn't file anything I instructed him to, often asking me to gather paperwork that never got used, and took offense if his decisions were questioned. In short, would not recommend this attorney, needs to be more organized, more assertive, and more experienced at the least. My case was later mediated, adjudicated, and handled by myself “pro se”. I was able to successfully receive everything I had asked Mr. Solomon to litigate for me as my attorney for which he either could not or would not I have no way to tell either way. But for a Pro Se litigant with no previous formal legal education I’d say that says enough. After almost a year of no movement in my cases through Mr. Solomon I was able to close the case within six months in a very adversarial contested case. I fully believe that Mr. Solomon took my money as I had hired him to do (2) cases simultaneously one in Cook County and the other in Will County with him accepting a flat rate fee that he designated for each individual case and with each case I ended up litigating myself and again came out with an extremely favorable outcome. After asking the court to withdraw from the cook county case I left a review on this site, and shortly thereafter he asked to withdraw from the Will County case citing he’d been slandered on social media by myself. Presumably by receiving a negative avvo review by myself and he kept many of the documents even after I requested that they be returned.....this should have been a walk in the park for ANY attorney!
