Jonathan James is a great guy and an even better litigator. When I first got my DUI I was scared…read moreand didn't know what to do. Jonathan laid out everything, set up a game plan so I knew exactly what I needed to do as well as what to expect as my case moved forward. As a result of his leadership and planning I was able to plea down to reckless driving and get my license back. I can't thank him enough for the amazing job he did and would recommend his office #1 to anyone who needs help with a DUI, Criminal Defense, Driving on Suspended License, etc. Bottom Line: Jon will fight for your rights and won't stop until you get the best possible outcome for your case.

I had Steven whitmore as my attorney back in 2017 for child custody. I have had free consultations…read morewith other lawyers in the area and also consultations I paid for. I have been to pretty much every lawyer in town and in the surrounding area. I have never met in my entire life and honest, hard-working, devoted, prompt and man of faith attorney in my entire life! I was at Ray law office once in the man flipped his pockets inside out because that's what all these lawyers care about is money, money, money!! Unfortunately I heard Steven doesn't do family law any longer because I would definitely use him again over anyone else. He worked with me on the retainer fee and I didn't have to pay him my $1,500 until I received my taxes. Until then I only paid him $200 a month. He always returned my calls and emails and text messages and was always on time to court. A different lawyer I had named Dave castañero never showed up and never gave me any invoices I never had a free consultation he was always late and he made me uncomfortable by yelling and court and getting all hot and sweaty and dramatic with the judge. Steven is the opposite. Steven is a perfect example of how an attorney should be. Someone who cares about a family he is a family man not just someone that wants your money. I don't know what happened with his license in the past but you can't please everyone. I should have done this review a long time ago and I think I've done one in the past. But what goes around comes around and people that are dishonest such as lawyers or whoever or people that are trying to get innocent people in trouble you know it is all in God's hands. I wanted to thank Steven and Melanie and Sandra slaga who retired but she was an awesome guardian ad litem for our son. I was going to get full custody but then I decided to reconcile with my ex-husband. We are still together right now. Thank you Steven and your team! May God bless you and everyone you encounter in your life and your beautiful family. I hope someone sees this especially Steven and anyone who may have doubted him he is the best attorney I have ever met and will ever know. Michelle Anast

He got me the best deal I could ever imagine something Ryan swiff and David vella could not do! I really do recommend him 100%.i swear the whole town was talking about me saying that I was cooperating with the law cause of the sweet deal he got me! But truth be told I did not cooperate it was all the negotiating that Glenn did with the prosecutor that got me the time I got,if you don't believe me just ask glenn! The best in town! Folks please keep in mind every case is not the same don't expect the same outcome! But he definitely does his thing, I seen him beat 2 murder cases within 2-3 months. Beast!!!!

So I had him years ago and was just thinking about how I never left a review. So where do I…read morestart... had a beatable gun charge because the gun wasn't mine promised to get it off my record that never happened . He took it personal that I wanted to get my time over with and instead of getting me my minimum sentance tacked on another year because he was mad I was taking my time. At this point I had been dealing with the injustice system for years in and out . My fault yes but I was on drugs and on a horrible path. I just wanted to take my time and guess what I haven't stepped foot back in a jail since then . Best decision I made . But he was horrible I got two years for a petty retail theft charge !!! I should have gotten one year. Not one public offender would have not been able to get me one year instead I pay all this money for an attorney to take something Personal and not do his job correctly . I still don't understand why he was offended that I was taking my time. Anyways go with somone else. He did not do his job correctly at all.

I hired attorney tempin to represent my son. He asked me what I wanted him to do. I said, keep my…read moreson out of the Illinois department of corrections. I paid him $2000. For a few days later, when I contacted him again, he said that he gave the file to another attorney Kevin. Because he was taking over the law firm from mister bulldog, then I get told. Well. We didn't realize how serious his charges were. But yet they still kept my $2000. Then, the very first time that my son meets with attorney. Kevin, he says, well, what do you want us to do? So my son explained to him about doing his time at the Winnebago County jail next court date and the day that he meets with attorney Kevin. He told my son well if I was you. I'd just plead guilty, get it done. And you don't have to worry about nothing to this day. I explained to them at the beginning of day one keep my son out of the Illinois department of corrections. They did not do this. All I feel like I got screwed out of 2000. They did not do what I asked in the beginning.So if I was you and you had a federal case, I would never hire these people.Because they just s**** y** out of your money, they could have called me and said we can't represent you.The charges are too serious, but no, they went ahead.And took my money gave me a worthless a**.Attorney doesn't even return my cause and when he's finally in the office, I have to deal with the secretary that is a very nice lady.So if anybody gets attorney, kevin, you might as well throw your money in the f****** toilet

I don't like to do negative reviews, but in this case I think it is warranted. Attorney Granger was…read morerecently the defense attorney for a friend of mine accused of a sex crime. I believe/know that my friend was innocent of the charge, but a jury voted guilty and now he is sentenced to decades in prison. I, and everyone else I know that was following this case, are of the opinion that attorney Granger did a very, very poor job of defending our friend. This was unexplainable as he appears to have a good reputation and good reviews. The prosecutor called many 'expert witnesses' to testify and he did not have one. Also, he did not display a desire or ability to thoroughly cross examine those witnesses. Perhaps he is better at some areas of law than others, or maybe he over extended himself, but I just believe something needs to be said about his performance in this case. I don't believe the defendants family received anywhere near what they paid for in attorney fees.
