Our 15 year old knew to stay away almost from the very start and asked why if I get multiple opinions with doctors why did I not do this with a lawyer. Money was Mike's main concern ie making it for himself. If he doesn't even give professional courtesy and consideration for a member of the bar and takes advantage of their emotional state in terms of a guardianship, I can just imagine what he's like to other clients. Kept repeating "we are all lawyers" and how everyone wasn't a "flamethrower" while laughing his way to the bank. The bill went up in one week @$7,000 ie $1,000 a day and nothing that was done was in the "best interests" of the "alleged disabled". What nerve! All I can say is karma is b-tch Mike! Should have never been advised to file especially in "Crook County". This was my second mistake. First was calling Mike!!! Stay away!!! "All the best" to you and your's Mike....

My mother passed away 2 1/2 years ago. The attorney who wrote her Trust and Will had retired, but…read morestill reachable. He suggested we get in touch with Ed Reda. Boy am I glad we did! From the first day we met until the closing of my mother's estate, he always responded quickly when we reached out with questions or concerns. Little did either of us know how challenging the journey would be. When one of the family members became difficult and demanding, he handled it very calmly and with diplomacy. All the while having a good sense of humor with the rest of us. If you ever need an attorney for family law or settlements, reach out to Ed. He and his assistant, Joy, know what they're doing and are willing to do what it takes to get the estate taken care of from beginning to end smoothly. Thank you!

Please Read HONEST Review:…read more Elizabeth gave me a call back, and her pricing was very affordable I will give her that. But her attitude was of upmost disgust. Honestly, no other way to describe her.... disgust. I was inquiring about a specific deed and she was pressuring me to do a quit claim. I mentioned to her more then once that this is not the type of deed I was looking into. Her entire tone was rude and belittling. She then decided to LIE and tell me Chicago doesn't do gift deeds. It wasn't until I mentioned that I spoke to multiple attorneys in Chicago that mentioned they do gift deeds, that she finally admitted that HER OFFICE only does quit claim deeds. Not only this but talking to her felt like I was a kid being yelled at by my parent. Her tone was unnaturally loud, unsettling, and rattled my energy. I even told her that I am just a possible customer asking questions (like anyone would) and if she could just calm her tone down with me.... She Did Not. She has a very loud pitch voice as if she's desperate for validation and business. I was immediately turned off by her entitled, I know it all, you know nothing, rudeness. Pros: cost efficient Cons: 1. rattling unsettling voice I mean gave me super anxiety to the point where I had to hang up (I'm not going to sit on the phone and take verbal abuse when I remained calm and kind) 2. Dishonest 3. Loud and definitely not a people person 4. Not a good listener 5. Very stressed out impatient energy. If she gave me this vibe over the phone imagine in person. It is clear why she only has 2 reviews. Even her photo looks very stressed as if she's forcing herself to smile. Bad Bad Vibe Steer clear of this one.
